Resilience Insights

Analyze and Map Locations

Regardless of how you connect your locations to Insights, you'll receive layers associated with them, which you can use as your starting point to analyze and map locations. Remember that, depending on your analysis, you may not have all the layers available. Work with your UrbanFootprint contact if you need assistance.

Access the Layers

If you're accessing the layers delivered by running an Insight with Dashboard, you can also easily switch between them.

Here are some tips to help you start working with the data:

  1. Sign in to UrbanFootprint Analyst by going to app.urbanfootprint.com.

  2. Click the user icon user_settings.png at the upper right corner of Analyst to display the organizations that you belong to.

  3. Select an organization from the list to display the organization's settings.

    Tip

    Each of your clients is assigned to their own organization. You must select the organization that aligns with the client who owns this specific set of addresses.

  4. Click Projects to see the list of projects associated with the organization and open the project associated with the analysis.

  5. Review the layers in the Layers Pane to review the data and the locations on the map.

  6. Continue working in Analyst to review your data, export it, and create maps.

If you need help understanding any of the basic tasks available in Analyst, see Work with the Layers Pane for more details about working with layers in the project or Mapping to create maps.
