Use "Filter by ID" to look at responses by people who selected a specific feature on the map

  1. Go to the analysis tool and select all questions that you want to create charts for.
  2. Open Filters.

  5. Click Apply. The charts now show responses only associated with those particular IDs.

What is an ID?

Each individual feature must have an ID in the shapefile or geoJSON that you've used as the basis for the pop-up or select map. The IDs are listed in the attributes of that map file. If you're unsure about what ID corresponds to each feature, go to Materials, check what the file's ID key is, download the map file and look at its attributes in a GIS program.

Use spatial filters to look at responses by people who selected a specific feature on the map

You can now filter responses based on geographic areas.

  1. Toggle on the layers you want to filter by.

  4. To start drawing, click on the map. Close the shape to finish. The drawn area does not have to be precise. I.e. If you have multiple features close to each other but only want to filter responses received to one of them, don't try to follow the outlines of that feature, but draw inside its area. This way the shape you draw does not intersect with any other features but only focuses on responses linked to people who selected that specific feature.

  5. Name the area you have drawn.

  6. Once applied, the map will display only responses within that designated area, and all charts will automatically update to reflect data from respondents whose entries intersect that geographic boundary. 

You can repeat this process to create multiple spatial filters.

 

Tip! Using conditions to compare how different groups answered? Make this more efficient by saving each filtered view.
