Full Description

The University of Washington Libraries subscribes to two web-based mapping and data visualization resources: SimplyAnalytics and PolicyMap. Both platforms pull geospatial data from a variety of governmental and private sources. PolicyMap, which the UW Libraries started a subscription with in fall 2017, offers several special features like their 3-layer maps, custom-made reports, and Data Loader. This talk will provide a general overview of each resource, compare and contrast the two resources, and highlight their utility as sources of U.S. demographic data for GIS research.
