Earthlight: Gradient to fill
Use gradient fills in Earthlight to represent changing values with smooth colour transitions on the map.
Gradient to fill creates a visual display that represents multiple values through smooth colour transitions. It gives Earthlight users another way to style mapped data where a stepped category is not the clearest presentation.
Why it matters
Some datasets are easier to understand when values can be read as a gradual change. A gradient fill can help users spot spatial patterns, compare areas and present analysis more clearly.
Where it helps
Council GIS teams can use gradient fills when thematic mapping needs to show a range of values across polygons or other mapped features.
