Could you please add the ability to plot data on a map. This is an extremely powerful method of showing how data to geographically distributed as the human mind is conditioned to look at maps.

It would be awesome to have a Google Maps KML chart of the USA based on zip code or state - then use the Geography Dimension and count to show a "heat map".
I think Birst - a competitive cloud BI platform - has this. http://www.birst.com/birst4/birst4_spring_release.shtml
Hi Jeff and thank you for the suggestion. We certainly have this feature on our roadmap and are looking into some really cool geo visualizations. However, we still want to add some really key features, such as intuitive time filters and also improve usability of some of the current features before we jump on the geo charts. We have a new release every two weeks so stay tuned.
Thanks again for your suggestion, any further feedback will be highly appreciated.
Best,
Hubert

Just a quick update, that geo chart is the next chart type we will be working on now.
