*What's New?*

This month, we are excited to share the latest enhancements to our platform including four features we hope that will elevate your experience:


* Map Lasso Tool: This feature creates two new ways to select geographies in maps: a circle and a lasso. These new options allow users to more specifically select geographies and give more options for easily grouping geographies.
* Search Bar Standardization: This updates the search experience across data.census.gov [ [link removed] ] to be consistent. The designs of all search bars now match (e.g., the ?Search for filter? search bar in the filter panel is updated to match the main search bar).
* census.gov Sitemap: This innovative tool ensures that search engines can seamlessly index our data making your search for valuable information easier and more efficient.
* Update Share Dialog on the Profile Pages: Per a request from our users, we are removing the ?embed? link from the Share dialog on Profile Pages as the system does not currently support embedding profiles.
* Technical work to help improve internal review processes.
* 6 defect fixes
