In this chapter, we detailed how to create, navigate, and customize maps. We learned how to identify the correct locations for mapping, enhance geocoding, and create our own custom geocoding and geographic fields. Furthermore, we covered spatial files, and how they can be leveraged to create nuanced maps for specific purposes. We also looked at adding background images to maps, creating custom maps, and creating density maps.
All of this will give you a firm understanding of the extent of customization you can achieve with maps and how they can be a powerful analysis tool. In the next chapter, we will start by creating simple calculations that can be leveraged across the various visuals we have learned about in this chapter and the last.
