Explore Data in Maps
Tableau maps can help you quickly find locations and analyse data worldwide. There are many ways you can explore and interact with map views. You can zoom in and out, pan and select marks with the view toolbar, and even search for locations worldwide with map search.
If you don't see the view toolbar or the map search icon, or if you can't pan or zoom, it's probably because the workbook author has chosen to customise how others can interact with the view.
The workbook author can choose to hide the view toolbar and the map search icon so they do not appear in the view. Similarly, the workbook author can choose to turn off pan and zoom to control how you interact with the view.
For more information, see Customise How People Interact with your Map(Link opens in a new window).
Select marks, pan and zoom
You can use the view toolbar in the upper left corner of the view to select marks, pan and zoom in and out of a map view. For more information, see Zoom and Pan Views and Select Marks.
Search for locations
You can use the map search icon 
to search for locations in your map view. For more information, see Set Map Search Options(Link opens in a new window).
Find your current location
If you're exploring a map view on Tableau Server or Tableau Cloud, you can use the locate me button to quickly pan and zoom to your current location. To do so, click the map search icon in the top-left corner of the view, and then, next to the search box that appears, click the locate me button.
Note: Finding your current location is not supported on Tableau Desktop.
Note: When you click the locate me button, you might be prompted by your web browser to allow Tableau access to find your current location. If you block access, Tableau will be unable to zoom to your current location.
Return to the initial view
After zooming in and out of the view, or panning to a new location, you can return to the initial view of your map. To do so:
On Tableau Desktop, click the reset axes button 
on the view toolbar.
On Tableau Server or Tableau Cloud, click the zoom home button 
on the view toolbar.
