Running GeoSpatial Report
When you run your GeoSpatial report, the GeoSpatial Selector window opens:
- Enter the zip code in the Zip Code field.
Note: to look up a zip code, leave the field blank and tab out. The system will ask if you want to look up a zip code. Click the Yes button. (Click the No button to return to the GeoSpatial Selector window).
The Zip Code Selector then opens for you to select a zip code:
- Enter the radius in miles. E.g. enter 25 to return all names within 25 miles of the zip code entered in step 1. Then tab out of the Radius field.
- Click the Continue button.
- The report now runs, returning all people in the radius of the entered zip code.
