Next, customize the points in the Shark Spotter Beaches data layer. Here you’ll bucket the points into two categories, Permanent Shark Spotter beaches and Temporary Shark Spotter Beaches — information that is already associated with each location in the CSV — and use two different map icons.
  1. Click the Shark Spotter Beaches layer in the menu and select Individual styles.
  2. Use the Group places by drop-down menu to select Style by data column: Type, then choose Categories.
