Insert maps

Recently PowerPoint created the feature of creating a map in the program itself. This tool is very powerful but since it's quite new, some bugs occur from time to time. Nevertheless, here is how you quickly add a map to your slides:

  • Click in the menu bar on Insert > Chart .
  • A window pops up. Select Map and click OK .

how to include and create a PowerPoint map

  • PowerPoint creates a default world map and opens a table in which you can write any other country names and values. PowerPoint will automatically change the map as soon as you change values.

insert a map by changing data

  • When you are finished, click on the X of the Excel table to close it. Attention! Until now, PowerPoint allows only 13 different countries. If you add more, they will get ignored. You can add names of continents, countries, regions and postcodes.
  • To re-open the Excel table and change anything later as well: Right click on the map and choose "Edit Data" or click on the map and choose Chart Design > Edit Data in the menu ribbon.

Edit the layout of the map to your preferences

As said before, PowerPoint lets us choose between mapping the world or only a continent, focus on a country or using postcodes to draw regions and areas. Keep in mind, that combining different levels might not always work, for example when a city is too small to be seen on a world map.

You can add, remove or change chart elements by selecting the map and clicking on the plus symbol in the right, upper corner. Here you can choose between showing the title, data labels or legend and on which position they should appear.

change settings of lettering PPT map

Moreover, you can use the Design and Format Tabs in the menu to get to the editing tools or double click onto the map. Pay attention on which part of graphic you click on, since the formatting task pane refers to exactly those objects. (Format Chart Area, Format Plot Area or Format Data Series)

change all options of PPT map

To move the map, just click on it and drag it by the graphics border to your desired place. To resize it: Click on its corners and move the mouse. (click Shift at the same time, to maintain the graphics proportions)

PowerPoint offers numerous ways to edit your map, so play around with the tools to create your favourite graphic. For example, you can hide countries without a data value or change the map projection. (The proportions of world maps)

Select your favourite colours

Think about the colour scheme for your whole PowerPoint presentation. A specific scheme for all slides makes the whole presentation easier to follow and your slides will perfectly harmonize together. There are different ways to change your graphics colour depending on, if you want to include the data to your colour plan or if you want to adjust each colour manually.

Use a default colour scheme:

  • First, select your map
  • Go to Design and click on Change Colours
  • Here you can use any of those schemes which consider the inserted data and can go from the brightest to the darkest colour

change colours with default options of PPT

Task pane: Format Data Series:

  • Double click onto the map to open the Format Data Series menu
  • Open the Series Colour tool and choose your minimum and maximum colour of decision

change colours with format data series

Individual colours:

  • Select individual countries or parts (they have to be highlighted)
  • Choose Fill and optionally Outline . You can also change the "weight" and "dashes"" of the outline
  • If you click onto the maps background, you can also change the background colour of the map (makes sense for an island)

change colours by clicking on an specific country

Fill all parts with the same colour

  • If you have only one country, it makes sense to fill it with a single colour. This can be done with the method explained before (Individual colours) or by selecting your map and going to the chart menu Format > Shape Fill
  • As before, you will find the same tools and options to change your objects, colour, outline or even effect (shadow,...)

change colour by filling whole country with only one colour

With SlideLizard CREATOR , you can automatically update colours and images in all your presentations. Manage your slides in a central library and automatically synchronise slide changes with all your presentations. You can also organise your slides with tags and folders to find them as quickly as possible.

Tips for PowerPoint maps and charts

  • Since you can only add 13 individual countries to a map, PPT quickly comes to its limits. Use Excel if you want to create more complex maps and copy the finished map to your slides.
  • If you insert a country's name into the table, PPT ignores the lines between each states and draws only the large country. To add the lines, simply insert two federal- state names instead of the country's name and it will draw each single state.

how to add lines of a country

  • The feature of drawing maps is relatively new, PowerPoint sometimes has problems to draw the map. You might have to delete a graphic and start again but the result will pay, so don't give up! Save your project from time to time to avoid the loss of a lot of work.

Our advanced map with even more options

Last but not least, we present you a map for advanced PPT- mapping- users. You can find this map on the last slide of our downloadable PowerPoint presentation . This graphic is an SVG- file, which means that you can grab and move each country of the world map to any place you want. Moreover, you can change it's colour again (the same way as before) and delete or resize them as well.

world map to drag and drop countries

If you want to find a specific country or make some objects unseen, there's an easy way to do so:

  • Go to the Home > Drawing menu and click on Arrange
  • Select the last option Selection Pane
  • A tool bar will pop up. Here you can click on the right "eye" symbols to hide or un-hide one of the countries.

how to use the svg-map

That was it! Have a lot of fun at creating your map or using our finished ones!

How can I insert maps in PowerPoint?

Break-out-room.

In live online training, it is sometimes useful to divide the students into small groups for certain exercises, as it would be impossible to have conversations at the same time. Break-out-rooms are used so that people can talk to each other without disturbing the others. When the exercise is over, they are sent back to the main room.

Notes Page view

The Notes Page view in PowerPoint shows a smaller version of the slide with a small area for notes underneath. In the presentation every slide has it's own space for notes. During the presentation the notes do not appear on screen. They are just visible in the presentation mode.

Audience Dynamics

Audience Dynamics means the motivations, attitudes, beliefs and values, which influence the listener's behaviour.

Animated GIF

An animated GIF enables images to be played in a specific order. It is created when several individual images are saved in a GIF file.

How to Create an Interactive Map in PowerPoint

Microsoft PowerPoint is truly a jack-of-all-trades. We’ve already shown you how to easily create flashcards, build Jeopardy games, design timelines, and even create quizzes there. In this guide, you’ll learn how to create interactive maps in a variety of ways without having to draw them from scratch.

Read the entire guide to find the method that’s most relevant to you, or click to jump straight to the section you’re interested in:

  • How to Visually Enhance an Interactive Map with iSpring Suite

An Alternative Way to Create Interactive Maps with iSpring Suite

Template: interactive map in powerpoint, what is an interactive map.

An interactive map is a digital, clickable map that typically displays geographic information. Unlike traditional static maps that only display fixed information, an interactive map allows you to click, zoom, or hover to see more detail. This makes it a dynamic tool for PowerPoint presentations and online courses, providing a way to explore data and geographic locations in greater detail.

When Should You Use Interactive Maps?

As interactive maps serve multiple purposes, they can be incredibly useful in a variety of settings for both educators and business professionals. Here are some use cases for a map:

  • Classes . Teachers can use interactive maps in geography lessons. By clicking on different countries or regions, students can learn some additional facts, such as capitals, economies, or traditional cultures. In history classes, a map can, for instance, be used to show the progress of battles waged during World War II or the migration patterns of ancient civilizations. 
  • Corporate presentations . Global organizations can show where their offices, factories, or customers are located. For example, managers can see how many employees work in different states or how customers are distributed by region.
  • Marketing reports . Instead of presenting spreadsheets or static charts, market analysts can visualize market penetration, competitive presence, and average income by country or state, enabling more targeted, location-specific marketing strategies.

The first method of creating interactive maps doesn’t require any pre-downloaded map templates or images. Everything you need to have at your fingertips is PowerPoint itself. However, locating “Maps” might not be entirely intuitive. Follow these step-by-step instructions to create an interactive map in PowerPoint:

1. First, open your PowerPoint presentation and click on the slide where you want a world map to appear.

2. Click on the Insert tab and select Chart  from the toolbar ribbon. This will open a dialog box with all of the types of charts you can add (this works properly in different PowerPoint versions, including PowerPoint 365, PowerPoint 2021, and PowerPoint 2019).

Insert tab in the PowerPoint ribbon

3. Select Map in the list of charts, and then click OK .

The list of charts available in PowerPoint

4. You’ll see a world map inserted into the slide and an Excel spreadsheet pop-up in which you can enter the data you need (e.g., countries, states, provinces) and the color saturation for each map object on a numerical scale. The higher the number, the more saturated the color.

The world map in PowerPoint

As an example, let’s try to map the countries around the globe with the largest population in mid-2022 (from Statista ). To do this, enter the countries’ names and their populations:

Enter the data into an excel spreadsheet

Note : By default, a PowerPoint map has 12 rows for adding locations in an Excel spreadsheet. If you need to display more geographic objects, you can easily expand this limit to the number of locations you need. Our table has 21 rows, so we need to expand to 21.

5. To do that, click on Select Data in the Design tab. In the opened window, expand the number of countries to the required ones in the line “=Sheet1!$A$1:$B$ [your number] ” and click on OK .

Expand the number of rows

6. Perfect! All the countries are displayed on the map and colored according to their populations.

7. Now you can add a map title. Click on Chart Title above the map and enter its name:

Add a map title

Perfect! The interactive map is ready.

In PowerPoint, when you select Map from the Charts section, the default setting displays a world map. However, you have the flexibility to focus on a more specific region. 

For example, if you want to create a color-coded U.S. map on, let’s say, the number of automobile registrations in different states, you can easily narrow your map down to just this one country: 

1. To do that, once the world map is inserted into your slide, go ahead and delete any filled-in lines that appear by default in the Excel pop-up. 

2. Type in the names of U.S. states along with the corresponding numerical data. As you begin to enter the names of the U.S. states, PowerPoint will recognize that your focus is on a single country and will automatically adjust to display a map solely of the United States.

Enter the U.S. states names

3. Don’t forget to expand the number of rows to the number you need. We’re going to display 35 U.S. states, so we need to expand the number of rows to 36 (1 header row and 35 data rows). To do this, as we did in the previous example, click on Select Data , type “36,” and click on OK :

Expand the number of rows to 36

Fantastic! The color-coded U.S. map is ready:

The color-coded US map in PowerPoint

PowerPoint offers a range of customization options to tweak the appearance of your map, including changing the map layout and color palette. To do that, simply go to the Design tab on the PowerPoint ribbon and select the options you wish to modify:

How to edit an interactive map

By clicking on the “ + ” symbol located to the right of the map, you’ll reveal additional editing settings that enable you to display data directly on the map, add shadows, move the map legend, fill in the background, and more. For our example, we added some shadows and labeled the states to enhance the visual impact. Here’s the result:

The color-coded US map

Sometimes you might need to add a map to your presentations very quickly and display a certain location in an interactive manner. Filling out Excel spreadsheets can take hours and is sometimes absolutely unnecessary. So, you may want to just insert the actual geographic map. 

In this section, you’ll learn how to do that with a couple of clicks using iSpring Suite , the robust PowerPoint-based authoring tool:

1. To begin, download iSpring Suite . The software has a 14-day free trial, so you can explore its features without any commitment. Simply install it on your computer to get started.

2. Once the software is installed, the iSpring Suite tab automatically appears in the PowerPoint ribbon.

3. Select a PowerPoint presentation slide to which you want to add a map and click on the Web Object button in the Insert section. This option allows you to insert any web page, whether it is your website, an article, or a training manual published on the web. To display a geographic location, you can insert a Google Map.

Insert a web object in your PowerPoint slide

4. Go to the Google Maps website and find a specific location you want to display on your map. Press the Share button → Embed a map → and click on Copy HTML .

How to display Google Maps in PowerPoint

5. Go back to your presentation. In the Insert Web Object window, select Embed code in the menu, insert the link, and click OK .

Insert the link

6. In the iSpring Suite tab, select Preview → Preview from This Slide to see the map.

Select Preview to see the result

Done! You’ve embedded the New York map in your presentation. Now you can zoom in, zoom out, and interact with the map to showcase specific boroughs and landmarks as needed.

How to Visually Enhance an Interactive Map

With iSpring Suite, you can not only embed a map, but also add different backgrounds to create a more immersive atmosphere. 

1. To do that, click on Backgrounds in the Content Library section on the iSpring Suite tab. There you’ll find lots of locations, from devices to office settings and school environments.

2. In the opened window, select an appropriate background and click on Insert .

Backgrounds for PowerPoint

3. After you’ve inserted the background, right-click on it and click on Send to Back → Send Backward .

4. Adjust the size of your web object to the size of the whiteboard:

Adjust the size of your map

5. Perfect! Now it looks like an actual geography class. To add a personal touch, let’s insert a teacher. Click on Characters in the Content Library section and choose an appropriate one from thousands of real-life or illustrated characters:

Characters from the iSpring Content Library

6. Then press the Add to Slide button and click on Preview to see the final result.

An interactive map visually enhanced with iSpring Suite

Great! To publish the entire presentation, click on Publish in the iSpring Suite tab on the PowerPoint ribbon. If you want to publish your PowerPoint presentation online, select My Computer in the drop-down menu on the left pane. If you want to distribute your slides via an LMS as a SCORM file, click on LMS, then click on Publish .

Publish an interactive map

In addition to inserting a real geographic map into your PowerPoint slide, iSpring Suite offers another possibility to create interactive maps with a Hotspot interaction. All you need to do is add an image to your PowerPoint slide and draw spots on it that will be highlighted when the mouse passes over them. You can add a description to each region and choose its shape and color. 

This allows you to create a map of any location and add a description to provinces, landmarks, or important cities, as in this example of a map of the United Kingdom:

Hotspot Interaction

While we often associate interactive maps with geographic data, the term actually extends far beyond that. With iSpring Suite, you can make any static image dynamic. 

For example, you could create anatomy diagrams to enhance medical or educational PowerPoint presentations about the human body. Alternatively, you might design a comprehensive infographic, wherein each point reveals additional facts when clicked. You could also display artwork, allowing viewers to explore different parts of a famous painting to learn more about the art, its history, or the techniques used. The possibilities are endless! 

See how you can easily present the parts of an object, such as a vacuum cleaner:

If you don’t want to deal with Excel spreadsheets, multiple data entries, or downloading additional software, we’ve created an interactive world map template that you can easily customize for any purpose or situation. Just download it, place the pins where you want them, and your map is ready to go.

FAQ on Interactive Maps in PowerPoint

1. what are the limitations of ppt when creating interactive maps.

First, PowerPoint doesn’t allow you to display multiple types of regions simultaneously. For example, you can’t showcase U.S. states and European countries on the same map. You must choose either countries or states or provinces. Attempting to mix different types of regions will result in an error message from PowerPoint.

It’s also not possible to add dots to represent cities automatically.

2. Do I need an internet connection to display an interactive map created with PowerPoint?

Yes. If your map relies on real-time data updates or external links, those specific features will require an internet connection to work properly. Additionally, if you’re using a feature that depends on Bing, Microsoft’s web search engine (via Insert → Charts → Map), then an Internet connection is also required to display the correct areas.

Alternatively, if you create a map with a hotspot interaction in iSpring Suite, it will be displayed perfectly even when offline.

We hope you enjoyed this article and will explore one of the options mentioned above. If you find the methods for creating interactive maps using iSpring Suite compelling, go ahead and download the free 14-day trial to explore the tool’s capabilities firsthand.

Bonus Tip: Convey Complex Information in a Clear and Engaging Way With Presentory

Part 1. why is included in world maps in powerpoint presentations.

Maps are graphical representations of continents and countries across the globe. They add significant value to your data and keep the diverse audience engaged towards the topic. By using world maps, you can con vey geographical data, global topics, and much more. To learn more about why include world map PowerPoint in presentations, read the reasons below:

  • Visualize Complex Data: By using colors and annotations in maps, you can convey complex data. Following this, users can also compare population statistics and environmental factors with maps.

Using US PowerPoint maps to add a sense of location to your presentation is one way to do this. But you probably don't have time to draw maps from scratch in PowerPoint. And grabbing images of a map online might be inflexible or unlicensed for use.

Continue reading to find even more helpful tips for using maps for PowerPoint presentations. 

PowerPoint is an extremely flexible app. Pair it with pre-built PowerPoint US map and world map PowerPoint templates. That's even more powerful. For example, want to know how to create a US map in PowerPoint? The right template makes this a snap.

Here are some examples of how you could use PowerPoint maps for presentations:

  • Company locations . Plot your company's presence. It could be across the country or even across the globe. Try something like well-designed PowerPoint US map template. Or try a world map for PowerPoint.
  • New markets to expand into . Highlight the territories that you're prospecting. An illustrated PowerPoint map slide could be effective.
  • Maps showing history . For example, link together a few locations on a map. This can show the various places you've lived over time in a personalized slide deck.

powerpoint maps

 We'll work with this  Maps PowerPoint Infographic Slides deck  in this tutorial.

I'll show you how to take the template from Elements and customize it. We'll easily create interactive maps in PowerPoint. Let's learn more about slide customization.

In this tutorial, learn how to create a map for PowerPoint. We'll change slides from the Maps PowerPoint Infographic Slides template . Check out the screenshot below. There are many slides inside this template. They depict a wide variety of geographies. If you want to know how to create a map in PowerPoint, it's a perfect solution. There's so much to choose from.

Let's walk through five visual adjustments that you can make to a map slide in PPT to customize them for your use. Then, I'll show you how to move the slide to your existing deck.

1. Change the Gradient Overlay

The blue-green style in this template may not fit in with your existing slides. Luckily, it's no problem to change these gradients to a different color.

For each of these modification examples, we've got to start by ungrouping the blocks. The author grouped all the individual states or provinces on the PowerPoint map charts. They're in a single block. This makes it easy to move and adjust. To change specific parts, you'll need to ungroup them. 

To do that, right-click on a map in PPT and choose  Group > Ungroup.  This splits the PowerPoint map template chart out into many individual blocks that you can edit independently.

Once you ungroup the map, you can select the individual components. In the example below, I chose the main region at the top of the map. Then, I right-clicked and chose Format Object.

On the sidebar, you can choose the fill options, and change the colors in the  Gradient Fill section. Just click on the arrows and change the colors in the paint bucket drop-down. In the example below, I've changed the arrows to shades of green.

2. Focus on a Single State

The maps in this template are far-reaching and often include an entire nation. When you want to focus on a rather specific part of the PowerPoint map, you might want to highlight a particular state and fade out the rest of the blocks.

Again, start by right-clicking the map and choosing  Group > Ungroup.  As a reminder, we do this so that we can select individual components of the map and adjust them individually.

After you've selected the regions you want to change, right-click and choose the format shape options. On the fill menu, turn up the Transparency  slider to fade out the selected regions. You can leave them in the map view but fading them a bit brings more focus to the critical parts of the PowerPoint map.

3. Remove Regions as Needed

Just because the PowerPoint map features a broad region with many states or countries in it, that doesn't mean that you've got to include all of them. You can select individual areas to remove.

In the example below, remember to start by clicking on the map and right-clicking, selecting Group > Ungroup.  

Then, just click on each of the regions that you want to remove from the map. Press delete on your keyboard to remove all the selected areas.

One of my favorite things about the maps for presentations in this slide deck is that the shapes are of high quality, so you can resize them as needed. In my example, I'm going to remove several of the provinces in Belgium, and then scale up the remaining infographic.

4. Add a Border in PowerPoint for Focus

After you've ungrouped a block of areas in a PowerPoint map, you can work individually with the states on the map. Another change you can make is to add a border in your PowerPoint map to break out a single region of the map.

Again, start by ungrouping the map. Then, select a single region and right-click Format Shape. 

On the new menu that opens, find the  Line  drop-down and click on it. Then, you can change the Color, transparency, and width  to modify the presence of the map border as you can see in the screenshot below.

Try increasing the size of your border to focus on a single region. You can also change the color of that border to draw more attention to the specifics.

5. Add an Annotation

If you really want to highlight a specific part of the map, you might need to add an annotation. Annotations can draw attention to very specific parts of a slide.

My favorite way to add annotations is to use a shape. Go to the  Insert  tab on the PowerPoint ribbon and choose  Shapes.  Then, find a shape that can act as an eye-catching text box to add to the map.

Chances are that you won't have a slide deck  full of  map slides. Instead, it's more likely that you'll finish up your map slide in PPT and take it to an existing PowerPoint presentation. 

To move your slide to another presentation, start by clicking on the slide thumbnail in PowerPoint's sidebar. Then, copy it by pressing  Ctrl + C  on Windows or  Cmd + C  on Mac. 

Now, jump over to the slide deck you want to paste the map into. Right-click in the sidebar in the spot you want to paste your slide into. You'll see several thumbnails, and you can choose between Use Destination Theme  and  Keep Source Formatting:

  • Use Destination Theme  attempts to match your map slide's style to the deck it's going into .  Typically, you should try this first so that it matches.
  • Keep Source Formatting  preserves the same style. It also preserves formatting. This will keep it as you initially prepared the presentation.

Check out the quick screencast lesson below to learn more about the options for pasting a slide into a separate presentation:

interactive world map presentation

From this point, you might want to adjust the style so that it matches your presentation. Items to check include:

  • Double check that your fonts match. The pasted version of the slide should match the other ones. 
  • Ensure that your color scheme matches nicely. The default slide deck in this tutorial uses blue-green gradients. You'll want to adjust this to match the color scheme in your map presentation.

We've looked at how to make PowerPoint maps for presentations. We also discussed how to add them to your PowerPoint presentation. But maybe you need a little inspiration. Want to see how maps can be creatively used in any PowerPoint presentation? Study the following examples below: 

1. General World Map Slide

This world map slide is a great to use when you need to showcase global data. This slide usually includes a map of the entire world. There are different colored regions. Use them to show different percentages or other figures. 

Maps PowerPoint Template

2. Continent Map

If you simply want to show data related to a specific continent or a region, the continent map comes in handy. For example, you can color different states with different colors. Add extra text or points to further explain the data. 

Continent Maps

3. Country Map

Use a country map in PPT when you want to share details about your services or products on a country level. This is great for local businesses that have branches throughout the country. Use this template to display information about each branch.  

Country Map Example

4. Maps With Charts

Need to share detailed information about each location on the map? Consider using a slide that pairs a map with a chart. You can see the example in the template below. 

Map With Charts Template

5. Map Slides With User Icons

Want to showcase data that relates to a demographic split? Consider pairing a country or region map with user icons. This allows your audience to easily visualize the demographic split. It also facilitates targeted marketing messages.

Map With User Icons

Now that we've explored how to insert a world map in PowerPoint, let's talk about some best practices. Use these tips to ensure your interactive map for PowerPoint is a strong addition:

1. Use Color to Your Advantage

Color is very communicative. Maps are communicative too. It makes a lot of sense to use the two together to communicate ideas.

Look at this interactive map presentation example. Note how the colors are associated with different symbols. You can take this idea and expand upon it in many ways. It's also a great approach because the association is completely visual. It makes it easy to see correlation. 

Maps Powerpoint

2. Be Strategic With Your PowerPoint Maps

Your PowerPoint map chart should serve a purpose. It doesn't have to monopolize the entire slide.

You could have the map as a smaller part of the design, emphasizing an idea. Or, you could have the map as the star of the show. Make it large and let it visually convey data. 

The goal with a map is to show geographic data. This could be simple. You could just show a relevant area. Or this could be complex. You could tie regions to data or statistics. Make sure you are clear on your map's goal, so it doesn't end up confusing or unnecessary. 

Maps Powerpoint Slides Template

3. Use Imagery to Help Further Convey Ideas

Imagery can be a great way to push your map further. For example, check out these fun PowerPoint map chart ideas.

In one of these slides, we see buildings added to the map. This helps visually communicate the subject and the area. In these instances, it's not about data. It's more about visually communicating an overall idea for your audience.

4. Make Sure Your Map Communicates Clearly

That said, are you clear on your map's purpose? Make sure it's clearly meeting those objectives. This is especially important if you're working with infographics. 

We looked at color as a great way to do this. But there are other ways too. Note these example PowerPoint maps.

You can point directly to locations on your map. Or, you can add other way finding elements, directly on your map. These could be simple aspects to animate in or out in PowerPoint too.

Eurove : Europe Region Vector Map Powerpoint

5. There Should Be an Objective

The most important thing to remember is purpose. Your maps for presentations should serve your narrative. Adding a map "just because" could prove to be overwhelming. Use PowerPoint maps for things like:

  • visually reinforcing a relevant or target region
  • sharing specific data about an area
  • directing attention to a specific area

Maps can be a strong infographic element. They can also serve as a communicative design element. Both are great approaches to try. 

You're probably not a cartographer. You probably don't know how to create an interactive map for PowerPoint. And you probably don't have time to draw maps in PPT from scratch.

  • How to Create an Interactive Map With Visme

Interactive Map FAQs

  • An interactive map is a digital resource that visualizes different layers of geographical data.
  • To create an interactive map, first log in to Visme, then choose a template, input or plot your data, add interactivity, and share or publish.
  • Transform your projects with interactive maps into visually stunning masterpieces effortlessly, as Visme empowers you to seamlessly blend functionality with captivating design elements.

An interactive map is a digital resource that visualizes different layers of geographical data. In a business design setting, this practical tool facilitates fast data visualization analysis. It helps teams analyze market trends, track sales performance across regions, and optimize chain logistics.

Interactive maps enable decision-makers to make informed choices by offering a platform to explore geographical insights easily.

An interactive map can be a slide in a presentation, a page in a document, a section in an infographic or a graphic in and of itself. By incorporating interactivity , you can transform a static map into a dynamic experience that not only conveys essential information but also elevates engagement.

Here are 15 interactive map templates you can use immediately in your projects.

The examples are all in horizontal format, but you can change the dimensions to another size. Likewise, you can save these maps as content blocks and add them to any other project you’re working on.

1. GPD Per Capita Choropleth Map Template

GDP Per Capita Choropleth Map

Choropleth maps use differences in color shading or symbols to indicate the values of a property in each area. This map template visualizes per capita GDP for countries around the world. It has five colors with average values and a side section with a noticeable title.

This template is one graphic, but that doesn’t mean you can’t use it in another project. Save the entire slide as a content block and then get it from your My Content gallery and add it to a presentation, document or infographic.

2. COVID-19 Vaccine Choropleth Map Template

Covid19 Vaccine Choropleth Map

With this COVID-19 template, you can visualize five different values for a vaccine rollout nationwide. This template uses hexagon shapes to identify the color and its related value, but you can use any other shape you wish. Just choose one that matches the rest of the design.

Build the map with your team using Visme’s integrated collaboration and Workflow features . Assign this map to one team member in particular and set a due date. Keep track of the progress using the content calendar. Use one unified workspace to work with everyone on your team.

3. Startup Population Choropleth Map Template

Startup Population Choropleth Map

In this worldwide choropleth map, the five colors visualize the countries with the most startups. The map graphic is laid over a photo background that helps with the visual storytelling of the map graphic itself.

When using images in your map graphics, take advantage of the AI Image Edit tools and remove backgrounds and upscale or deblur photos with one click.

4. Lung Cancer Cases Choropleth Map Template

Lung Cancer Cases Choropleth Map

Use contrasting colors to depict statistical information on your map, like in this template. The data in this example is about lung cancer cases but you can use it for sales amounts, new customers or retail locations where your product is in stock.

Use a photo background with a dark color overlay to give the graphic some texture and depth. Don’t forget to include a reference to where the data came from. Use a hyperlink to let viewers see the complete data set.

Use the pre-designed color themes to try new combinations for your map. If you’ve created any branded color themes , you can use those too; they’re available with all the other themes.

5. Agriculture Choropleth Map Template

Agriculture Choropleth Map

When choosing the colors for your choropleth, consider the data story you’re telling. In this case, for a map of countries with the most arable land, the color coding is in tones of green. Make sure the colors you choose contrast each other so they’re easy to differentiate.

6. Top 10 Countries Map Template

Top 10 Countries Map

Use this template to visualize ten ranking countries on any topic. In this case, it's about countries that use Hootsuite for social media marketing. Set up the interactivity features so that when you hover over a country, you can see the value for each.

After sharing your map with colleagues, stakeholders or your audience on social media, use the analytics dashboard to track who has seen your content and where from. Having analytics data helps you consistently create better content that your audience will react positively to.

7. Megabrew Latin Roots Map Template

Megabrew Latin Roots Map

Visme interactive maps can show or not show outlines for regions. In this case, the map uses dark outlines to differentiate the countries better. To make the visualization more interesting, each country legend uses a small region map as the icon. You can add hotspots to each country for more information about them.

8. Most Popular US Attraction Map Template

Most Popular US Attraction Map

When the data set has only two values, you need to choose a base color for the regions that aren’t involved. This map keeps the color white for states that don’t match one of the two main values. The legend is depicted as two buttons that can be easily turned into interactive hotspots.

In this template, the data visualizes the most popular attractions in the US and can be adapted for your content. Some possibilities include your highest-selling locations or forecasted regions for new markets.

9. Worlds Best Countries for Employers Map Template

Worlds Best Countries Map

Get creative with your map design using this unique template. The neon colors stand out over the gray background and are accompanied by design elements that give this map graphic a unique personality. The legend is separated on the left and right of the map so that it's balanced and easy to read.

10. Coronavirus Cases in The US Map Template

Coronavirus Map

Aside from the region and the color-coded legends, include more data or information using icons inside circles. It’s a great way to depict overarching numbers that cover the entire area of your map or to explain other topics in your data.

11. Paid For Daily Newspaper Map Template Template

Paid For Daily Newspaper Map

Minimal maps are a great starting point for interactivity. This template uses circular labels for each region from which you can add interactive hotspots. A hotspot can be a small popup or as big as the entire slide, where you can include information pertinent to your map.

12. Smart Device Penetration in Europe Map Template

Smart Device Penetration in Europe Map

When creating maps with Visme, you can show countries, regions or the entire world. Furthermore, you can select which countries to show and which to hide. This map shows Europe and how many smart devices are used. Since this map is about smart devices, we’ve added a device mockup to help illustrate the story.

Visme also offers access to an integrated feature called the brand wizard . With this tool, you can generate branded templates in minutes, including maps and many other types of content.

13. Top Social Networks Map Template

Top Social Networks Map

Incorporate a detailed legend with values per country in your map, especially when the data has sub-data. Here’s an interactive suggestion: when you hover over a country on the map, make a highlight appear for this value on the left side legend.

The legend on this map includes five color-coded sections with value lists to visualize active users of several social networks in Asia. The legend is separated into social networks and highlights the number of active users per one for a group of countries.

14. World Forecast Map Template

World Forecast Map

Use a monochrome color palette for your map, like in this world forecast template. This example uses the color blue in different tonalities for every aspect of the data and white for the text. Use a gradient background to give the design a bit of depth.

Combine your map with dynamic fields to create tailored content. Create and set up custom fields that will help you make several versions of one template, saving time and effort.

15.  Highest Valued Export Map Template

Highest Valued Export Map

Add creative design elements to your maps with textured borders and illustrative icons to pinpoint different data sets in your graphic. Add hover interactivity to your map to showcase numerical values per region or country.

In this map’s legend, each item is color-coded and visualized with a relevant icon. This technique makes your map more accessible and easy to understand. Furthermore, you can add animation to the icons for attractive interactivity.

How to Create an Interactive Map with Visme

Now it’s time to create your own interactive map with Visme . By following these four steps, you’ll have an engaging,clickable map in no time.

Here’s a quick tutorial video to give you an idea of how easy it is:

Step 1: Log In To Your Visme Dashboard

Log in to Visme to enter the dashboard. If you don’t have an account, you can create one easily with your Facebook or Google login. Signing up is free. There’s no need to enter credit card details.

Step 2: Pick a Map Template or Open a New Project

To use the Visme map maker , you can either start with a map template or open a new or existing project and access the maps from the left-hand toolbar.

The maps in the Visme editor are housed in the data visualization section, where you’ll also find charts, graphs and data widgets, along with other types of data visualizations .

Step 3: Input and Plot Your Data

To start inputting and plotting your data, select the map on the canvas and click on Settings. In the Setting dialog, choose the Map Data tab and add your data to the relevant columns provided. Toggle the eye icons to show or hide a region of the map.

Select the color for each region by selecting the color block and changing it with the color picker. Click on the Add More Data button if you have more than two data points for any location.

Step 4: Customize the Map’s Interactivity

Now it’s time to add interactivity. Click on the Map Settings tab and choose whether to show a popup on hover and the color you’d like it to be: dark or light.

The popup is a small legend that appears when the viewer hovers over a region in your map; it shows all the inputted data for that region.

Furthermore, you can add interactivity with the hotspots feature of the Visme editor. This will permit you to create custom hotspots for regions or legends. Hotspots can be popups or links to other slides or external pages.

Collaborate easily with your team to create maps that are both attractive and informative. Leave each other feedback and comments on the project with details to improve the map.

Step 5: Finalize and Share

Ensure that all map data is correct and there are no errors in the content accompanying the map. Double-check that the fonts and colors in the map match the rest of the project by customizing the options in the Map Settings. Apply all the feedback from your team and finalize the map.

To share the map, you have numerous options inside the Visme editor. If the map is part of a larger document, share it as a digital flipbook, printable PDF or interactive HMTL5 file. You can also share them publicly or privately as a PDF or image file. Finally, you can publish to social media using the integrated social media scheduler.

Do you still have questions about interactive maps? These frequently asked questions will help clear your doubts.

Q. What Are the 3 Most Important Things on a Map?

The three most essential things on a map are: distance, direction and symbol. With these elements, you can:

  • Clearly represent spatial measurements between locations, providing users with a sense of scale and proximity.
  • Indicate cardinal directions and orientation to guide users in navigating the map accurately.
  • Represent key features, landmarks or data points to convey information succinctly for quick interpretation.

Q. What Technology Is Used to Create Interactive Maps?

Interactive maps use GIS (Geographic Information System), JavaScript, HTML5 and map APIs.

GIS is used for storing, analyzing and managing spatial data. Javascript and HTML5 are employed for developing interactive features in web-based maps, and integrations with map APIs enable developers to enhance functionality and access additional data layers.

Visme is another great technological tool for creating interactive maps. Geographical data is mapped seamlessly, thanks to a professional drag-and-drop interface and integrated map APIs.

Q. What Makes a Good Interactive Map?

For an interactive map to be truly effective, it must have a user-friendly interface, provide accurate data and offer customization options.

An intuitive design allows users to navigate and interact with a map easily, and reliable and up-to-date information ensures the map’s utility and credibility. Finally, an excellent interactive map allows users to tailor the display to their specific needs, promoting a personalized and efficient user experience.
