hi iam currently using ELK for doing vis for my project however i have got a requirement of using my own customised markings on maps visualisation in place of the dots as they are presently. these distinct markings are required to annotate separate type of events . is there any way of using customised markings in kibana ---

HI You can use data driving styling and assign icons for different events. [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/7.6/vector-style.html#maps-vector-style-data-driven](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/7.6/vector-style.html#maps-vector-style-data-driven) data driven styling symbolizes features by property values. To enable data driven styling for a style property, change the selected value from **Fixed** or **Solid** to **By value**. Thanks Rashmi ---
