With dashboards becoming the front end access point to business intelligence applications and to deeper analysis, it stands to reason that many different types of data visualization would become part of what dashboards encompass.  These can include dials, gauges, charts, embedded reports, and the list goes on.  As technology and use has become more mature, organizations look for ways to improve visibility into geographical information and overall location intelligence.  This has caused many vendors to add this type of functionality into their overall offerings, enabling customers to visualize performance using map and satellite images.
