3rd party maps

These mapping tools have been used and embedded on SDP websites by us or our customers:

Google My Maps
- Example: https://www.vic.gov.au/how-find-early-childhood-education-mentor
BatchGeo
- Example: https://www.vic.gov.au/150-years-interactive-schools-map
Geospatial mapping design companies that use ArcGIS Online - Experience builder / Instant Apps

You may also engage a third-party agency to design and develop a map for your purposes. The Ripple design system is open source and publicly available.

If you create your own map, you will need to ensure that it is accessible, accurate and user-friendly.
