Imagine you're a business seeking your ideal business location and you've got a pretty good idea where it needs to be. Maybe you've got a manufacturing facility that wants to locate along an Interstate corridor. Or a plant that wants to be within a particular distance of several suppliers. Or a surf shop that wants a location somewhere along the beach.
The freehand drawing tool is easy to use. Select "Filter area" from the tools on the bottom right of the map, between Pinpoint and Export. This tool is one more example of the extensive range of analysis tools available to your website users so that they can research ideal business locations. Static data is outdated and irrelevant - in a competitive global economic development marketplace, it's critical to offer all you can to help visitors looking to make investment decisions.
