# Using maps
|
||||
|
||||
With OpenSearch Dashboards, you can create maps to visualize your geographical data. OpenSearch lets you construct map visualizations with multiple layers, combining data across different indexes. You can build each layer from a different index pattern. Additionally, you can configure maps to show specific data at different zoom levels. OpenSearch maps are powered by the OpenSearch maps service, which uses vector tiles to render maps.

### Maps
|

You can create two types of maps in Dashboards: Coordinate maps and Region maps. Coordinate maps show the difference between data values for each location by size. Region maps show the difference between data values for each location by varying shades of color. See [Using the Maps plugin]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/dashboards/maps-plugin/) to learn more about maps capabilities in Dashboards.
