Section on use as a Web Mapping Application
Dashboards are one of the most popular formats for Web Map Services in Web GIS and Web mapping. This could be reflected in this article with a section. Additionally, the use during the COVID-19 pandemic is probably noteworthy enough to expand into a section as well. GeogSage ( ⚔Chat?⚔ ) 20:27, 30 March 2024 (UTC)
