Map Radius

Estimated reading: 2 minutes 34 views

The map radius tool is a feature of intelligentVIEW that allows you to create a file of postal codes that fall within a circle around a single postal code.

You can access this workflow from

  • Build an Audience File on the main Dashboard and selecting the Map Radius option.
  • Left side navigation under Define Audience File > Map Radius

Clicking on either of these will start the map radius workflow.

There are three steps to map a radius:

Step 1: 

  • Select a postal code you want at the centre of your radius.
  • Specify the size of the radius you want by using the slider.
  • The standard system allows you to map a radius of up to 25 km.
  • Click submit.

TIP: The postal code field is not case sensitive

Step 2:

  • Google Maps opens and displays the radius.
  • Take a look at the map and decide whether you are satisfied with the size and location. If so, click continue.
  • If you want to modify the size and center of your radius on the map, use the small white shape editing circles at the top, bottom, left right and center and drag the circle, or click back to return to step 1.

Step 3:

  • Select/create a project to put your Map Radius Audience File in.
  • Give your map radius Audience File a name.
