The Maptitude for Redistricting application first shipped in 1997. Our clients have used the redistricting app to create thousands of redistricting plans. Today, 35+ states and many local governments, public interest groups, research facilities, political organizations, and the Department of Justice are using the latest version of the application for a range of activities including importing and analyzing existing plans, tracking changes in demographics, creating maps with the latest political data, building redistricting plans using estimated data, and preparing staff for each redistricting cycle. We provide software, data, training, and support services to these clients throughout the redistricting cycle.

Redistricting
Redrawing the boundaries of congressional and state legislative districts is a process known as redistricting. Following the completion of the United States census, districts are redrawn every decade.
In the 2020 redistricting cycle, several applications give access to population and election data allowing people to design, alter, and share district maps based on factors including competitiveness and demography. Apps come in a variety of shapes and sizes, with some aimed at state governments and others at the public. Some programs offer datasets with different levels of depth and breadth, while others rely on user input.
Maptitude for Redistricting is the most widely used redistricting application.
