We’re excited to introduce Public Map Access, a new way to make your EH data more accessible, searchable, and easy to share with the public.
What This Means
You can now provide users with a streamlined, read-only map experience designed specifically for viewing and searching records—no login required.
Built-In Search & Filtering
The Public Viewer automatically displays a Search Options panel, giving users the ability to filter data right away.
- Example: Food EH maps can be filtered by inspection date
- Users are encouraged to search for specific records
- Not sure what to search for? No problem—the full map remains interactive and usable
Data Visibility & Control
- Only fields included in the selected form will display values
- All other fields are hidden and protected from view
- Layers can be shown or hidden based on configuration
Full Administrative Control
Health Departments maintain complete control over:
- Which data layers are visible
- Inclusion of reference layers (such as imagery)
- Overall map configuration
Note: Basemaps are always available to ensure usability.
Simple by Design
The Public Viewer is a lighter version of the map, focused on:
- Viewing EH data
- Searching records
No clutter — just what public users need.
This ensures a clean, intuitive experience for public users without unnecessary complexity.
