July is busy for redistricting. Here is where to find us and what is coming.

Summer does not slow redistricting down. Maps are still being drawn, challenged, and redrawn across the country, and the questions are coming faster than the answers. This month we are in Chicago for the NCSL Legislative Summit, we are offering free training for Maptitude for Redistricting, and we are getting ready for some significant releases later this year. Here is where to find us and what to watch for.

Free Maptitude for Redistricting training

New to Maptitude for Redistricting, or want a refresher? Maps are being redrawn right now at every level, from Congress down to county commissions, city councils, and school boards, with the 2030 census and the 2031 data that follows already on the horizon. We offer free training. Learn the tools, ask questions, and get up to speed fast.

We'll Be There

See us at the NCSL Legislative Summit in Chicago

See Maptitude for Redistricting in person.
We will be hosting a short Maptitude for Redistricting overview and question and answer session at the Summit, a quick way to see the tools and get your questions answered face to face.

The 2026 NCSL Legislative Summit runs July 27 to 29 at McCormick Place in Chicago. While you are there, two sessions on the Elections and Redistricting track are worth a look:

Redistricting: What's the Deal with Data?
Monday, July 27, 10:45 AM to 12:00 PM

Census 2030: What's New and What's Now
Monday, July 27, 1:15 PM to 2:15 PM

Going to the Summit? Let us know and we will find time to talk redistricting.

Coming later this year: Maptitude for Redistricting 2026 and rebuilt online editions

We are putting the finishing touches on the next release of Maptitude for Redistricting, arriving later this year. Here is some of what is coming:

• A refreshed, modern interface with a simplified ribbon and updated icons, with everything still where long-time users expect it
• Faster maps, especially on large geographies and plans with many layers, with all layers drawing at the same time
• A new 24/7 AI assistant in the Learning Portal

Online redistricting, rebuilt
Our web-based redistricting editions are being completely updated on Maptitude Online, our SaaS platform. The same plans, reports, and public participation tools you know, now on a faster and more modern foundation. See the online editions.

What you can always count on

• Precise population equality
• Clear minority opportunity analysis
• Documented, repeatable methods
• Court-ready maps, tables, and reports

Whether you are drawing maps or challenging them, the bar for precision and documentation keeps rising. Maptitude for Redistricting is built to produce work that is documented, repeatable, and defensible, on tight timelines.
