Step 2: View Your Data on Our Interactive Map
Once your data has been entered, click “Map” to view an interactive visual representation of the information. You can zoom in and out to find the exact view you’re looking for. For example, you can look at the entire United States, or zoom in to look at a specific state, county, or region.
Step 3: Customize Your Map
Using the variety of interactive data visualization tools at your disposal you’ll be able to:
- Change a variety of aesthetic components, from the overall map type to the color of an indicated route.

Step 4: Export or Share Your Map
Once you’re happy with your map you can export it or share it with other members of your team. When sharing maps you can use the privacy settings to only share certain views of your map and can control who is privy to what data.
Choose from a Range of Data Visualization Tools
Our interactive maps give you access to a number of different visualization tools that you can use to present your data exactly how you want.
Some of our favorite tools include:
Heat Map Tool
The heat map data visualization tool identifies points of density on your map according to the location data you input, giving you immediate insights into the regions where your data is more heavily weighted.
Through this window, you’re able to see the degree and size of particular areas of density. You’re also able to identify areas that are lacking substantive data. It’s ideal for assessing market availability in a particular town or city and analyzing sales density in certain areas.
Boundary Tool
The boundary tool allows you to mark boundaries on your map so you can aggregate your numerical data according to the area types you have selected.
You’re able to draw regional boundaries according to categories such as countries, states, counties, and cities, or congressional districts. Once your boundaries are marked you’re able to observe what your data tells you about those regions.
