Left panel

The left panel is where you will find the introduction to the application and any useful tools.

Within the left panel there are two sections stacked on top of each other: the button navigation area at the bottom, and the tool display area at the top.

In the tool navigation section, there may be a variety of different tools depending on the application. Some tools that may exist in the app are:

• Near Me
• Search by Location
• Search by Attribute
• Buffer

When you click on one of these buttons, the top of the left panel will display your selection.

MiEJScreen Tool Highlight:  Near Me

Follow these steps in the Near Me tool (heading “Search Features Near Me” to generate a report of MiEJScreen scores within a certain distance (radius) of a location.

1. Choose a location by either:
1. Using the point, line, or polygon buttons

OR

2. Entering a location in the search bar within Near Me, then selecting the presented search result.
2. Select your "near" distance. This is how far around the location you would like to search (buffer radius).
3. The tool will then indicate the selection on the map, and display the name of the “Input location” (address, place, etc.).
4. Below the “Input location” information, choose the Export button [] 
5. Select your export option.
   1. “Export to PDF” will produce a report with the current extent view of the map and MiEJScreen data for the census tracts intersecting with the selected area.  This output is the most similar to the MiEJScreen Report template used for MiEJScreen 1.0.

There is also an option to export just the data for the census tracts selected by using the Export button that displays on the “MiEJScreen Overall Score” tab that also shows the count of the census tracts.
