Custom Choropleth Map Problems

📊 Plotly Python
1

Hi, i was looking at the USA choropleth maps example and want to use it for another country. i tested by modifying the csv file into the province of thailand and the projection to a latitude and longitude of thailand.

# code sample for USA choropleth map
import plotly.plotly as py
import pandas as pd

df = pd.read_csv('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/plotly/datasets/master/2011_us_ag_exports.csv')

for col in df.columns:
    df[col] = df[col].astype(str)

scl = [[0.0, 'rgb(242,240,247)'],[0.2, 'rgb(218,218,235)'],[0.4, 'rgb(188,189,220)'],\
            [0.6, 'rgb(158,154,200)'],[0.8, 'rgb(117,107,177)'],[1.0, 'rgb(84,39,143)']]

df['text'] = df['state'] + '<br>' +\
    'Beef '+df['beef']+' Dairy '+df['dairy']+'<br>'+\
    'Fruits '+df['total fruits']+' Veggies ' + df['total veggies']+'<br>'+\
    'Wheat '+df['wheat']+' Corn '+df['corn']

data = [ dict(
        type='choropleth',
        colorscale = scl,
        autocolorscale = False,
        locations = df['code'],
        z = df['total exports'].astype(float),
        locationmode = 'USA-states',
        text = df['text'],
        marker = dict(
            line = dict (
                color = 'rgb(255,255,255)',
                width = 2
            ) ),
        colorbar = dict(
            title = "Millions USD")
        ) ]

layout = dict(
        title = '2011 US Agriculture Exports by State<br>(Hover for breakdown)',
        geo = dict(
            scope='usa',
            projection=dict( type='albers usa' ),
            showlakes = True,
            lakecolor = 'rgb(255, 255, 255)'),
             )
    
fig = dict( data=data, layout=layout )
py.iplot( fig, filename='d3-cloropleth-map' )

# portion modified.
data = [ dict(
...
        locationmode = 'country-names',
...)]

layout = dict(
...
    geo=dict(
        scope='asia',
        projection = dict(
                            rotation=dict(
                                        lon = 100.750112,
                                        lat = 13.689999,
                                        roll = 0,
                                        )
                        ),
            ),
...)

I modified the usa states to provinces of thailand based on the list of province stated in wikipedia

portion of modified csv
|code|state|
|---|---|
|ANCR|Amnat Charoen|
|ANTH|Ang Thong|
|PNSA|Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya|
|BAKK|Bangkok|

I tried with locationmode with USA-states and county names, both generated same result.

I tried with scope asia with the direct latitude and longitude but it doesnt generate what I need.

I need a choropleth map of thailand where I have some statistics pre-calculated to be displayed, similar to the csv file.
Is it possible to do the choropleth map of thailand using plot.ly?
