Publishing a Report for Louisiana

The InstantAtlas installation includes example data for users who wish to create a report for the US State Louisiana. We strongly recommend that you follow the instructions and publish the Edinburgh postal sectors report first.

The Louisiana map files are located in the InstantAtlas ‘maps’ folder. The default path to this is:

C:\Program Files\EsriUK\InstantAtlas\maps\

The louisiana_parishes.shp file contains the boundaries for parishes within Louisiana. The louisiana_regions.shp file contains the boundaries of the regions of Louisiana. We recommend that you use louisiana_parishes.shp as the base geography and louisiana_regions.shp as the contextual geography for your report.

You can find example Excel workbooks with matching data in the InstantAtlas ‘workbooks’ folder. The default path to this is:

C:\Program Files\EsriUK\InstantAtlas\workbooks\Louisiana
