Where We’ve Been

Overview

An interactive map embedded in a webpage, produced by MDOT MTA (Maryland Department of Transportation) for the Baltimore Red Line transit planning project. The map displays the geographic distribution of community engagement activities and outreach meetings conducted along the proposed Red Line corridor. The embed is powered by Microsoft Power BI and is sourced from TomTom and Microsoft Corporation mapping data (© 2026).

Filter Controls

The map includes three dropdown filter controls at the top, all currently set to “All”:

Distribution of Activities

The densest clusters appear in:

• The Woodlawn/western Baltimore County area (moderate density, predominantly yellow/gold Visit/Drop In dots)
• The central Baltimore City area near Edmondson Village and downtown (very high density, mixed activity types including Community Association Meetings, Pop-ups, and Events)
• The Inner Harbor/Stadium/East Baltimore area (very high density, widest variety of activity types)

Sparser activity dots appear in the northern and southern peripheries of the map..

Branding

The Red Line logo appears in the lower left of the map embed — a white oval with “RED LINE” text and a small red line graphic. The MDOT logo (Maryland Department of Transportation) appears in the upper left of the embed panel.
