Write info directly on the map

📊 Plotly Python

Hello!
I’m trying to repeat the result from SAS via plotly.
Is it possible to make the first screen looks like the second one?
I mean that I want to write data permanently on the map, not only on mouse hover

hi @iamkosyak
Welcome to the community.

Yes, that is possible in Plotly. We have more about this in the text and annotations chapter.

Yeah, I saw this way, but have some problems.
It works fine when I’m adding it to the empty Figure object, but it doesn’t work on the top of plotly.express.choropleth_mapbox (example’s below).
I want to use plotly.express.choropleth_mapbox because it’s the only way to have color_discrete_map I find. Any ideas what am I doing wrong?

So this works::

fig = go.Figure()
fig.add_scattergeo(
        lat=[0],
        lon=[0],
        mode='text',
        textfont=dict(
            color="black",
            size=50,
        ),
        text='123'
    )

And this doesn’t work (I see only coloured map):

fig = px.choropleth_mapbox(gdf,
                           geojson=gdf.geometry,
                           locations=gdf.index,
                           color_discrete_map=color_discrete_map,
                           color=gdf.desc,
                           mapbox_style="open-street-map",
                           zoom=1)

fig.add_scattergeo(
        lat=[0],
        lon=[0],
        mode='text',
        textfont=dict(
            color="black",
            size=50,
        ),
        text='123'
    )

Works fine with mapbox_style=“basic”, but not with mapbox_style=“open-street-map”
