Mapline Blog

Our most basic drive is to make mapping analysis available to everyone. A huge part of that is making our software as user-friendly as we can. We like to think we do well at this, but we’re always looking to do better. Starting with the new update, every feature, pop-up, or tool will have a help button with articles, videos and more available to guide you along. Our dream is that you never wonder about the answer to a question.

Mapline has always been a tool of customization. But now we’re ramping up the functionality like never before. Basically every feature or element on the map is being overhauled to give you more control as to how it looks and interacts. If you want your map to look a certain way, it can look that way. You have total control over every item on the map, down the the individual pins.

Do more than ever before with Mapline’s new and improved search bar. Before, the search bar was great for looking up specific addresses, cities, or regions. We’ve added multiple features including a search history, showing all the places you’ve searched, and integration with the routing tool, allowing you to add locations to a route on the fly. Never again will you have to look up the same location over and over again. The best part? This is just the beginning!

We want our routing capabilities to be both powerful to use and easy to access. So we decided to put it everywhere. And we mean everywhere. Nearly any element, dataset, pin, territory, or you name will be a source of routing. If you need to create a route but don’t know how, try clicking on nearly anything. Just like that, you can create a route.

We wanted to give our customers more flexibility about how they add, remove, and edit the locations in their dataset. Now, adding rows has never been easier. You can add new columns in seconds. A ton of new functionality has been added directly to the dataset page. Make all the changes you will ever need without ever having to leave.

Mapline 2.0 is only days away from releasing! Why are we calling it Mapline 2.0? Because everything regarding Mapline is about to change. It's about to get even better! This is the most comprehensive update we've ever had. So what does this mean and what should you expect from everything that is about to happen in the next few weeks?
