Is it possible to map data by census tract on Google Maps? Specifically, it would be good to know if this capability exists within Qlikview's Google Maps extension, but it would also help to know if this is something that can be done at all, and if so how.
Enter an address into the Search field at the upper left of the screen then click Search. After you're zoomed to the location, you can click the polygon that contains the address to show the census tract.
CENSUS TRACTS/BLOCK GROUPS/BLOCKS Ohio has 2,952 census tracts, 9,238 block groups, and 365,344 census blocks.
Michigan has 2,813 census tracts, 8,205 block groups, and 329,885 census blocks.
Yes, it appears so.
Census tract data is available via a KML file: https://www.census.gov/geographies/mapping-files/time-series/geo/kml-cartographic-boundary-files.html
As part of a larger set of Census related data this is available in KML: https://www.census.gov/geographies/mapping-files.html
The following are directions from Google on how to use KML files with their products: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/kml
