How Do I Create a Heat Map?

Heat Maps can be used to visually represent the locations of accidents and incidents recorded in the system. Locations can be added to a heat map when logging accidents and incidents. Heat maps can also be incorporated into the System Dashboard as charts, providing a clear visual display of where accidents and incidents have occurred.

The locations are represented by different colours:

1. The map will show red where there have been a significant number of accidents and incidents in the same location.
2. The map will show yellow if there have been a smaller number of accidents and incidents in one location.
3. The map will show blue where an accident has occurred singularly in one location.

To mark the location of an Accident or Incident:

1. On the left column, go to Accidents and Incidents.
2. Click New Accident and Incident.
3. Choose the Accident and Incident Type from the dropdown options.
4. Select the Classification from the dropdown options (you can select multiple).
5. Enter the Occurrence Date. If you enter the accident after more the 48 hours since its occurrence, you must enter below the reason for reporting late.
6. Select the Priority and whether it is Direct or Indirect/third party.
7. Select the Location and Project from the dropdown options.
8. Click the Location on the map where the incident happened.
9. Fill out any other report forms that are relevant to the accident.
10. Click Save & Submit.

To add a heat map to the system dashboard:

1. Go to Dashboard on the left column.
2. Click New Chart.
3. Select Map.
4. Enter the Title and Description of the heat map.
5. Select Heat Maps from the options.
6. Select from the dropdown options what you want to show on the map.
7. Select the Location you want to show on the map.
8. Select Where Occurred or Where Reported. Depending on the option you select, it will show on the map where the accidents have occurred or location they were reported.
9. Click Save Changes.
