My Areas allows you to create and define your own areas, which we call ‘adding a new custom area’. Once an area is defined, you can:
- generate a detailed report for it
- use it as a comparator for reports (each report compares a selected area to two other areas)
- see it on the dashboard
- see it on the map and overlay key datasets
Add New Custom Area
There are two methods to create custom areas:
- Draw on a map. Use this method if the area you would like to define is not a standard area. Use the zoom tool to pinpoint exactly how you would like that area to be defined. For a step by step guide on how to use this feature click here
- Based on standard area.Use this feature to create standard areas from suburbs, postcodes, LGAs, states, or SA1s, SA2s and SA3s. You can select more than one of these at a time if they appear in the same list. For a step by step guide on how to use this feature click here
Add Category
Use the category function to organise your custom areas. This becomes more important as more areas are generated by people across your organisation. For a step by step guide on how to use this feature click here
