Why Use the Filter Tool?

Filter Tool Pin Map

Suppose you’re like most businesses these days; you collect a lot of data. Names, emails, phone numbers, sales figures, and revenue are just some of the figures you likely have stored in multiple spreadsheets.

Plotting this information on an interactive map is a great way to visualize and analyze the data, but it can still be overwhelming. In most cases, you’re only interested in a few data points at a time, so all that other information starts getting in the way.

Use Maptive’s custom filters to hide unnecessary data and focus on the information you need. Swap information in and out of your map as required to get the most out of your map and your data.
