There are three types of radius map:

• A manual radius map draws a radius on a map and exports the data to Excel
• An automatic radius map automatically creates a ring map from a location or from multiple locations such as a list of addresses in an Excel spreadsheet
• A distance/drive-time radius map creates a distance radius map for single or concentric circles for both straight-line and driving distance

Radius maps show circle-shaped features to indicate the distance from a central point. Examples include choropleth heat maps, which show the intensity of an area in relation to the distance from the central point, and population density maps, which show how many people live within a certain radius.

A map radius calculator makes it easy to find alternative service providers, backup field representatives and the nearest locations. The calculator determines the closest sales representative to each customer or the closest vendor for each store. If the nearest location is not available for reasons such as low inventory or temporary outages, you will quickly be able to choose the alternate nearest suppliers. The results are provided in a table format.

Maptitude allows you to draw a radius on a map. You can draw a radius around a location, draw a circle around a point, or draw a circular area around a set of coordinates. It also allows you to customize the size and color of your radius and can be used for a variety of applications such as route planning, boundary analysis, and market analysis. A variety of options allow you to:

• create concentric circles
• calculate cumulative demographics for each nested radius
• create a radius around each location
• merge the rings together

The radius analysis can then be exported to:

• Google Maps or Google Earth as KML or KMZ
• ArcGIS in many formats including Shapefile and File Geodatabase
• Excel as a spreadsheet, a report, an image, or as tabular data

Google Maps has a feature that allows you to draw a radius on a map. To use this feature, search for your desired location on Google Maps. Next, select the "More" option from the menu, and select the "Measure Distance" option. You can then draw a radius around your desired location.

To print and measure a radius map, you will need to follow these steps:

1. Determine the center point of your radius map. This can be a specific location or a point on a map.
2. Determine the radius of your map. This is the distance from the center point that you want to examine.
3. Use a mapping tool or software to create the map. There are many tools available that allow you to create a radius map, including Maptitude, Google Maps, MapQuest, and Bing Maps.
4. Enter the center point and radius into the mapping tool and customize the map as desired. You can choose different colors, styles, and labels for your map.
5. Once you are satisfied with your map, you can print it by selecting the "Print" option in the mapping tool or by saving the map as an image file and printing it from another program.

It is also possible to create a radius map manually by drawing it on a blank map or paper. To do this, you will need to use a ruler or other measuring tool to mark the radius around the center point and draw the map by hand.
