Hi David. I've never had the need to graph geospatial data so I'm probably not your target audience but I did have a lot of fun playing with your examples. I found the main application intuitive and easy to use on a desktop computer (did not try on mobile). It also seemed pretty fast and I didn't have any performance issues.

I tested out the embed code and I was expecting something more stripped down. Even with all the checkboxes unchecked it still looks like your main app squeezed into an iframe. I would expect it to not include the full page header and footer. I was really expecting just the most essential features, like the What/When/Where/How sections. I'm imagining a use case where it is embedded into a blog post or news article. I feel like the far right column with all the info could be optional for embeds.

Hopefully that's helpful. Good luck with your project!

Thanks for that useful feedback. I have to admit I probably haven't paid as much attention to the embed option as I should have. I'll take another look at it. Cheers
