System and method for spatial cohort mapping and analysis

A system for tandem map displays, the system comprising:

• a graphical user interface (GUI) having a screen configured to display dynamic images and a user input device communicably coupled to the screen and configured to manipulate the dynamic images on the screen;
• and
• a processor communicably coupled with the GUI and programmed to:
• display a first dynamic map image and a second dynamic map image on the screen of the GUI, wherein both the first and second dynamic map images each represent a first geographic area;
• display on both of the first and the second dynamic map images a plurality of geocoded data points, each at a particular geographic coordinate within the first geographic area;
• display a first set of characteristics associated with geographic subsets of the first geographic area in the first dynamic map image;
• display a second set of characteristics associated with the geographic subsets of the first geographic area in the second dynamic map image;
• receive with the GUI via a user manipulation of the user input device, wherein the user manipulation is associated with at least one of magnifying, zooming, panning, or selecting at least a portion of the first dynamic map image or the second dynamic map image;
• and
• simultaneously adjusting both of the first and the second dynamic map images to each represent a second geographic area based on the user manipulation, wherein the first set of characteristics and the second set of characteristics associated with geographic subsets of the second geographic area are displayed in the first dynamic map image and the second dynamic map image respectively.

A non-transient computer-readable medium comprising program instructions configured for causing a computer to perform the following steps:

• displaying via a graphical user interface (GUI) a first dynamic map image and a second dynamic map image on a screen of the GUI, wherein both the first and second dynamic map images each represent a first geographic area;
• displaying on both of the first and the second dynamic map images a plurality of geocoded data points, each at a particular geographic coordinate within the first geographic area;
• displaying a first set of characteristics associated with geographic subsets of the first geographic area in the first dynamic map image;
• displaying a second set of characteristics associated with the geographic subsets of the first geographic area in the second dynamic map image;
• receiving with the GUI a user manipulation within the first dynamic map image or the second dynamic map image;
• and
• simultaneously adjusting both of the first and the second dynamic map images to each represent a second geographic area based on the user manipulation, wherein the first set of characteristics and the second set of characteristics associated with geographic subsets of the second geographic area are displayed in the first dynamic map image and the second dynamic map image respectively.
