I want to create a Geomap with packet loss as heatvalues. I cannot define my own color range for the heat values. As seen in the screenshot from the Grafana settings I set an override that sets the color scheme from the thresholds, but that is not working.

Yes, instead of the `Layer Type: Heatmap`, use the `Layer Type: Markers`. For defining the color range define `Standard Options: Color Scheme: From Thresholds (by value)` and then set your thresholds.
