How to overlay Long/Lat points on a existing map
I have an existing map of ward in Chicago in Tableau:
I have a separate CSV file, linked to primary data source by Ward. It contains pairings of Long/Lat points. I can make a map of it by itself, but cannot find a way to place the points on this map. How would I do that?

If you want to overlay the dots to the existing area map you will need to use dual axis. Steps to follow are:
- drag latitude (or longitude) from the csv datasource to rows (or columns); this will create another map
- right click on the newly added measure and select "Dual axis"; this will overlap the two maps
- in the marks box on the left you will be able to select different display settings for the two axis you will then have
