Stats Box

[JohnWuJavier]

@Yulin-W A cool idea would be to add a stats box. Here are a few things I want added

• Land Area Covered So for example if I color all of Brazil for example then there will be a tiny stat that says 8.51 million km² in the bottom left hand corner (also add the option to translate it into sq miles).
• Population Tedious but it can be done
• GDP Just use province GDP if the entire country is not covered.
• GDP Per Captia Super easy to do once you have both GDP + Population Thats all I need. Thanks

Hi,

Thanks for the idea. I'll put it on the todos (albeit not sure when I'll get time to do it).

In the meantime, I made a similar tool for this purpose: https://yulin-w.github.io/region-selection-data-display/

• Click regions to select (an aggregated summary will appear on bottom right, and data for individual selected regions on the left)
• It has land area, population, gdp, gdp per cap and a few others (hover on the column headers in the left side table to see units)
• Limitation: only has 2020 country level data (couldn't find finer level data)

Thank you so much! By the way, do you know where I can find custom regions of the whole world. I tried to make via GeoJSON but it was too tedious so if you know any websites that have like downloadable ones that can be imported please let me know

Sorry for the late reply.

"https://www.geoboundaries.org/" has geojsons for individual countries at varying levels of granularity (denoted by ADMx, meaning x levels of administrative divisions are present in the file)

• Personally I'd go for the "Simplified Files" and usually no more than ADM2 (since otherwise the file gets rather large and laggy)

Some other miscellaineous geojson files:

• US counties: https://gist.github.com/sdwfrost/d1c73f91dd9d175998ed166eb216994a
• Countries (without further subdivisions): https://github.com/datasets/geo-countries/blob/master/data/countries.geojson

Also two side comments:

• Unfortunately region name labels of these third party geojson files are either not there or not in a format recognised by this webapp, so whilst it should still work, the app is not gunna display the names of the regions.
• Loading geojson and saves with custom geojsons is buggy with the top left load button, so please use the dedicated custom geojson loading button on the right side panel for both geojson and save using custom geojeons.
