Dynamic Location List

The Dynamic Location List automatically filters and displays locations based on the current map viewport. As users navigate the map—panning, zooming in or out—the content panel updates in real-time to show only the locations visible within the current view.

This feature works seamlessly across all location list types:

• Category Filter: A list generated based on selected categories.
• Search Results: A list of locations matching keyword searches.
• Storytelling Map: Locations displayed sequentially, as part of a story map.

For category filters, if the default view is set to display only a subset of locations within a category, the list will include only the locations visible in the current viewport when that category is selected.

Key Benefits

1. Enhanced User Experience

• Focused Content: Displays only relevant, in-view locations, preventing information overload.
• Mobile Optimization: Particularly valuable for mobile users where screen space is limited.

2. Intuitive Navigation

• Synchronized Updates: The location list automatically updates as users explore the map.
• Eliminates Manual Filtering: No need for users to manually filter or search for visible locations.

3. Contextual Awareness

• Location-Relevant Information: Users see only locations within their current area of interest.
• Personalized Experience: Content dynamically adapts to the user’s map exploration.
