In early 2024, the Maryland Department of Transportation updated their web mapping application for the Maryland Bikeways Grant program. This program - the largest state grant program for biking networks in Maryland - has existed for more than a decade and the previous web mapping application - a web map inside a StoryMap template - had become outdated and cumbersome due to the sheer number of grant projects mapped.
With the new application, the team at MDOT created 3 separate queryable map applications (I.e., Dashboards) and embedded them into one 'frame' (I.e., Experience Builder) in order to retain the single URL and 'one-stop' to see all of the Maryland Bikeways Grant projects geospatially. The application includes the ability to view and query awardees by the year of the award as well as by project category.
