Dashboard Maps are actually awesome

Just FYI, and not a question .....

I just did my first production map report with hundreds of pins ( 610 pins to be exact!) on the Dashboard and OMG, you really have to give Quickbase credit for this one.  The map loads super 
fast and as advertised, I was able to customize the pin colour and pin icon. They also did quite a nice job of handling the situation where multiple pins are at the exact same address.

Kudos to some unknown software engineers and Product Manager for nailing this one.

Does it only do that in Dashboards, or is there a way to get it to have the custom pin icons and colo(u)rs in a stand-alone map report?

This is probably the absolutely perfect thread to see if anyone can help me figure out how to accomplish our goals. We are a NYS-based telehealth program that offers services specifically within hospitals. I have every NYS hospital on our map, and I'd like to color code them based on where there is access to our service or a similar service, versus those who don't. I already have those fields built in, but there are 193 hospitals in NYS for this report. I did do the dashboard and see my color-coded pins, but the problem is I'm seeing the lump of hospitals as a number - I'd really like to visualize all of NYS at once. Alternatively, to try to solve for this, I added in the region of NYS. That still is not quite drilled down enough to see all of our hospitals.... so I thought of going small section by small section to kind of piece together an overall map on a dashboard..... this is cumbersome and not attractive.

Is there a way to get them ALL to populate/no drill downs (it's okay to see several pins all lumped)..... and even better yet.... could I somehow get the counties sussed out on the map, and even color-code the underlying county map based on a separate condition?

Thanks in advance!

That’s awesome! And if you ever want to take maps even further with routing, territories, live tracking, or advanced filters, Mapsly connects with Quickbase and adds a full geo-intelligence layer on top of your data.
