IoT devices that track weather can have web apps or mobile apps that visualize weather conditions using symbols, such as a cloud symbol for cloudy days, a rain cloud for rainy days and so on. There are a huge number of ways to visualize data, many serious, some fun. + +✅ Think about ways you've seen data visualized.

Sometimes the best visualization is a flashing light! + +When working with GPS data, the clearest visualization can be to plot the data on a map. A map showing delivery trucks for exampel, can help workers at a processing plant see when trucks will arrive. If this map shows more that just pictures of trucks at their current locations, but gives an idea of the contents of a truck, then the workers at the plant can plan accordingly - if they see a refrigerated truck close by they know to prepare space in a fridge. -## What is Azure maps? +## Map services -Working with maps is an interesting exercise, and there are many to choose from such as Bing Maps, Leaflet, Open Street Maps, and Google Maps.

You can get real-time updates on your maps by integrating them with [Azure Event Grid](https://azure.microsoft.com/services/event-grid/?WT.mc_id=academic-17441-jabenn). You can control the behavior and look of your maps by enabling various controls to allow the map to react to events like pinch, drag, and click. To control the look of your map, you can add layers that include bubbles, lines, polygons, heat maps, and more.
