Techniques are described for generating geographic borders. In one example, techniques include recognizing a geographic location, determining a starting latitude and a starting longitude and population for the geographic location, and generating a border for the geographic location based on the starting latitude, starting longitude, and population.

Generating geographic borders

One or more processors sort a plurality of geometric shapes using one or more size criteria. One or more processors determine whether the plurality of geometric shapes include at least one geometric shape that encapsulates or partially overlaps at least one other geometric shape. One or more processors assign a hierarchical order for the plurality of geometric shapes based, at least in part, on the one or more size criteria and one or more criteria of one or both encapsulation and partial overlap.

Geometric shape hierarchy determination to provide visualization context

A processor-implemented method for generating a chart specification is provided. The method may include identifying at least one chart component within a plurality of chart components associated with an image of a chart. The method may also include determining whether the at least one chart component meets a threshold score. The method may further include identifying elements associated with the at least one chart component when the at least one chart component is determined to meet the threshold score. Additionally, the method may include generating a chart specification based on the identified elements.

Generating a chart specification based on image recognition of chart parts

In one example, a method includes identifying a plurality of data representation features comprised in each of one or more dashboards. The method further includes identifying formatting data for a format of the data representation features in each of the one or more dashboards. The method further includes generating one or more thumbnail images corresponding to each of the one or more dashboards, wherein each of the one or more thumbnail images comprises a plurality of stock images representative of a corresponding one of the data representation features in the corresponding dashboard, in a format that represents the format of the corresponding dashboard.
