New Tutorials for SimplyMap Users
SimplyMap includes a number of helpful support tools; guided wizards available when and where you need them, detailed help files, and an online support center with FAQs and searchable knowledge-base.
Along with the release of SimplyMap 3.0, we have recently updated the tutorial library, posting several new videos. Once you login to SimplyMap, you can find these videos by clicking on the Help tab and then selecting the topic you are interested in.
We have general how-to tutorials for those just getting started:
- Map Tutorial
- Report Tutorial
- Ranking Tutorial
- Ring Study Tutorial
- Business Points Tutorial
And now, we have advanced tutorials that address some of the more advanced SimplyMap functions:
Mapping Demographic Data
This tutorial highlights how to analyze demographic data for specific locations. The video walks through creating a map showing all zip codes in a major city. It includes updating break points, creating a ranking from a map, and exporting maps and reports with the demographic data.
Data Filters
Learn how to create data filters and apply them to both maps and reports to identify specific characteristics of the data.
Adding Locations
Users learn how to use the i-Tool effectively in this tutorial. We show you how to create a map and select locations from that map with the i-Tool in order to easily create reports around those locations.
As always, we are open to your suggestions. If you feel a specific tutorial would be helpful, get in touch with us at support@geographicresearch.com
