Using the filters

Using MERMAID Explore Using the filters

Apply filters using the left-hand panel to refine the data displayed on the map and in the summary metrics. Filtering also determines which data is included when you export.

  • Basic filters (Countries, Organizations, Projects): Type or select one or more entries from these dropdowns.

  • Advanced filters: Click Show more filters to access:

    • Date range: Specify survey start and end dates.

    • Your data: Check Your projects only to view only projects you have access to (requires login).

    • Methods/Data sharing: Select specific survey methods and their corresponding data sharing levels. 

    • No data: Include projects that haven’t yet submitted data (useful for project setup checks).

  • Zoom to filtered data: After applying filters, click the Zoom to filtered data button (looks like a filter) to adjust the map view to encompass only filtered results.
