I was able to use the layer wizard to allow users to look at specific states using a search bar. This will be helpful if the user wishes to look at a smaller scale of map by state, instead of the entire country comparatively. This can also be done if you were to use a disease outbreak map, similar to the one I mentioned in the last post. With an outbreak map, the layer wizard could be used to create a search bar that would allow the user to search for specific outbreaks on a map…so the creator could have multiple disease outbreaks on one map.<\/p>\n
