Hello,

I would like to know if with Kibana it is possible to create our own picture and be able to zoom in/out and put a circle when something has been found. The same as Map functionnalities but on a custom "map". This map can be a warehouse, building level and each dot can be associated with a value.

Thanks

Hi @Testeur

I think you can use [this blog post](https://www.elastic.co/blog/kibana-and-a-custom-tile-server-for-nhl-data) for inspiration.

In the blog post example we assign image coordinates of a hockey rink to geographic coordinates as a GeoTiff file. Then we host the GeoTiff using a tile server link GeoServer. GeoServer provides a URL that we can [add to Elastic Maps as a Tile Map Service](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/tile-layer.html) to create the zoomable image. In recent versions you can add a "Create Index" layer to draw shapes over the map that will be persisted in an Elasticsearch index.

Hello,

Thanks a lot. Seems like it's exactly what I was looking for. Going to deep dive in it and see if i'm able to replicate it.

Thanks again
