Sample 68286: SAS® Visual Analytics on SAS® Viya® geographic tables for U.S. county geographic data providers
 |  |  |  |  |
SAS Visual Analytics on SAS Viya does not include geographic data at the U.S county level. This Sample note provides a SAS data table (.sas7bdat) for use with geographic data providers (custom geographic polygons) to implement U.S. counties using the state and county Federal Information Processing System (FIPS) code in the county ID.
To use the data from this Sample note in your environment, download the appropriate version of the data from the Downloads tab. Next, import the data into SAS® Cloud Analytic Services (CAS) and then define a geographic data provider within the geography data item dialog box. For more information, see the Working with Geography Data Items section in the SAS Visual Analytics documentation that includes information about creating a geographic data provider.
US_COUNTIES Data Details:
The format for U.S. county ID in the US_COUNTIES geographic data provided is US-00999, where ‘00’ is the state FIPS code and ‘999’ is the county FIPS code.
