Use a custom map if you have data with a geographical component that doesn't match any of the standard maps provided by Analytics charts, such as custom regions. You can also use custom maps for areas that can be represented with polygons, such as stadium seat sections, city blocks, or floor plans.
Custom map charts can be used in lenses and dashboards. You can create and manage custom maps in explorer and dashboard designer.
Custom map charts in Analytics can be created from GeoJSON with a geometry type of Polygon or MultiPolygon. See the reference section for more information. Data is overlaid on a custom map using either an id or name property as a key. (Salesforce Help)
