Report Mode - Canvas Summary Statistics
Analyst uses a set of Summary Statistics to represent development characteristics across scenarios. Summary Statistics include totals for population, households, homes, jobs, and building area.
Whether you're developing scenarios to meet control totals for growth, or to compare the capacity of plans or development options, summary statistics are useful for checking progress as well as reporting final results.
Note that scenario Summary Statistics cover the entire project area. To calculate Summary Statistics for subareas within your project area, you always have the option of working directly with the Base Canvas and scenario canvas layers to make subarea selections, create filtered layers, and summarize data via the data table or CSV exports.

Enter Report mode by clicking the Report mode icon

The charts are dynamically generated and cannot be downloaded. However, you can export the summary statistics to develop custom charts in other programs.
