Maps Supplied with SAS/GIS Software

Maps in the USA Catalog

These maps are all defined in the same spatial database; that is, they all use the same spatial data even though the maps represent different geographic areas.

MAPS.USA.STATE

This map includes USA and STATE boundaries for the continental United States, along with a CAP_CITY layer which represents the locations of state capitals. The theme defined for the STATE layer depicts average household income by state. A Browse action named BRSTATE displays information about the selected state. A Drill action defined for this map allows users to drill down to an individual county map of the selected state. Selecting the state of North Carolina and running the DRILL action opens a sample map of North Carolina by COUNTY and ZIP code (MAPS.NC.NC).

MAPS.USA.COUNTY

This map includes USA, STATE, and COUNTY boundaries for the continental United States. The theme defined for the COUNTY layer depicts population change by county. There are three actions defined for this map. A Browse action named BRCOUNTY displays information about the selected county. The TREND Program action creates a bar chart that displays population and housing trends. A Program action named RATIO creates a plot that displays population and housing ratios for the selected county.

MAPS.USA.TRAINING

This map includes USA and STATE boundaries for the continental United States, along with a CENTER point layer which represents the locations of SAS Training Centers. This map contains an IMAGE action which displays a picture of the selected training center. There is also a Browse action named BRCENTER which displays information about the selected training center.

MAPS.USA.state

(where state is the two-character postal code for the state)

There is an individual map for every state in the continental United States, plus the District of Columbia. Each map is named using the two-character postal code for the particular state. These maps include USA, STATE, and COUNTY boundaries. The theme defined for the COUNTY layer is the same as in the MAPS.USA.COUNTY map, and depicts population change by county. There are three actions defined for the maps. A Browse action named COUNTY displays information about a selected county. The TREND Program action creates a bar chart that displays population and housing trends. A Program action named RATIO creates a plot that displays population and housing ratios for a selected county.
