amChart heat Location-sensitive map

I'm trying to implement this demo in my app but I get whole map black regardless of values. here is my code:

var map = AmCharts.makeChart( "chartdiv", {
"type": "map",
"theme": "light",
"colorSteps": 10,
"dataProvider": {
  "mapURL": "https://www.amcharts.com//lib/3/maps/svg/iranLow.svg",
  "getAreasFromMap": true,
  "zoomLevel": 0.9,
  "areas": []
},
"areasSettings": {
  "autoZoom": true,
  "balloonText": "[[title]]: <strong>[[value]]</strong>"
},
"valueLegend": {
  "right": 10,
  "minValue": "little",
  "maxValue": "a lot!"
},
"zoomControl": {
  "minZoomLevel": 0.9
},
"titles": 'titles',
"listeners": [ {
  "event": "init",
  "method": updateHeatmap
} ]
} );


function updateHeatmap( event ) {
var map = event.chart;
if ( map.dataGenerated )
  return;
if ( map.dataProvider.areas.length === 0 ) {
  setTimeout( updateHeatmap, 100 );
  return;
}
for ( var i = 0; i < map.dataProvider.areas.length; i++ ) {
  map.dataProvider.areas[ i ].value = Math.round( Math.random() * 10000 );
}
map.dataGenerated = true;
map.validateNow();
}

is there anything else that I should do in order to get color range based on values?

You're likely running into cross origin issues when using the SVG on AmCharts' site as your source when running your code locally (especially if your local environment is http - the include is https).

Ideally you should be using the map JavaScript instead of the SVG file. Try including the iranLow.js map javascript file and use map: "iranLow" instead of mapURL: 'path/to/svg'.

iranLow.js include (after ammap.js):

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.amcharts.com/lib/3/maps/js/iranLow.js"></script>

Modified dataprovider definition

"dataProvider": {
  "map": "iranLow",
  "getAreasFromMap": true,
  "zoomLevel": 0.9,
  "areas": []
},

Demo below:

var map = AmCharts.makeChart( "chartdiv", {
"type": "map",
"theme": "light",
"colorSteps": 10,
"dataProvider": {
  "map": "iranLow",
  "getAreasFromMap": true,
  "zoomLevel": 0.9,
  "areas": []
},
"areasSettings": {
  "autoZoom": true,
  "balloonText": "[[title]]: <strong>[[value]]</strong>"
},
"valueLegend": {
  "right": 10,
  "minValue": "little",
  "maxValue": "a lot!"
},
"zoomControl": {
  "minZoomLevel": 0.9
},
"titles": 'titles',
"listeners": [ {
  "event": "init",
  "method": updateHeatmap
} ]
} );


function updateHeatmap( event ) {
var map = event.chart;
if ( map.dataGenerated )
  return;
if ( map.dataProvider.areas.length === 0 ) {
  setTimeout( updateHeatmap, 100 );
  return;
}
for ( var i = 0; i < map.dataProvider.areas.length; i++ ) {
  map.dataProvider.areas[ i ].value = Math.round( Math.random() * 10000 );
}
map.dataGenerated = true;
map.validateNow();
}
#chartdiv {
  width: 100%;
  height: 300px;
}
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.amcharts.com/lib/3/ammap.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.amcharts.com/lib/3/themes/light.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.amcharts.com/lib/3/maps/js/iranLow.js"></script>
<div id="chartdiv"></div>
