As a demo of the ArcGIS API for Flex, ESRI has a new page that lets you create an embeddable/shareable map of demographic data by US county. Only seven datasets available now:
- Median Household Income
- Population Change 2000-2009
- Population Density (per sq. mile)
- Median Home Value
- Unemployment Rate
- Average Household Size
- Median Age
Map creation is trivially easy – select the demographic dataset from a dropdown, zoom the map to the desired extents, set a map size in pixels, and you’re done; links to a map with your parameters, and code for an embeddable map, are generated automatically. Here’s an embedded map, scrollable and zoomable; unemployment rate is the defaultdataset, but you can choose other sets with the dropdown menu at upper right:
More datasets would be nice, as would control over colors and ranges …
