Tech Tip:
Using the Map Librarian to Map 2010 USA Demographic Data
Maptitude 6.0 provides a map library that contains pre-designed maps listed by USA Census category (see the training video). These include thematic maps of demographic, economic, and housing data by ZIP Code, Tract, County, and State. The Map Librarian lets you open one or more of these maps for a chosen location, allowing you to quickly analyze U.S. Census data for your area of interest. The following steps walk you through this task: 1. Choose Tools-Map Librarian, and make a choice from the Choose a Map Category list. 2. Choose one or more maps from the Choose the Map(s) You Want list (Ctrl- and Shift-clicking allow multiple choices). 3. Choose Other Location... from the Choose a Bookmark list, and click OK. Maptitude displays the Find tool. 4. Choose whether to display the chosen maps for an address, city, ZIP Code, county, or state from the scroll list and enter information about the chosen location in the edit boxes. 5. Click OK. Maptitude opens the maps you have selected at the location you chose using the Find tool. |
