Dataverse and WorldMap have been integrated by adding APIs to both systems (Funded by the Boston Research Initiative)
Three types of Dataverse file:
- Tables with columns containing latitude and longitude
- Tables with a column of known codes which represent geometries, i.e. Zip, Census, FIPs, etc.
- Files of type “shapefile”, zip compressed.
For each of the 3 types one can:
- Create data-driven map symbolization options
- Obtain downloads in variety of spatial formats
- Overlay with other map layers in WorldMap
