We offer redistricting intelligence that no one else can provide. Our state-of-the-art, proprietary FastMap computer algorithm generates maps of congressional, state legislative, and local districts with surgical precision.  We show you what is possible and what is not possible for the election districts in your state or locality.  Click here to contact us.

There are trillions upon trillions of ways to divide up a state, but only a tiny fraction have the features you need.  Using our advanced computer algorithm, we generate redistricting alternatives that strike an optimal balance among the features that are important to you.  Maps created by our algorithm also reduce the possibility of lawsuits based on an "intent to manipulate the lines" because humans are not involved in detailed line-drawing decisions.  Click here to contact us.

All of our maps meet legal requirements for...

• District population equality
• The federal Voting Rights Act (including majority-minority districts)
• District contiguity
• Nesting of state house districts within state senate districts (when applicable)

Each map optimizes one or more of the following (depending on your preferences):

• Political fairness/unfairness
• District competitiveness
• District compactness
• Keeping counties intact
• Keeping municipalities intact
• Keeping communities of interest intact
• Similarity to current map
• Minimizing incumbent pairings
• Incumbent protection/neutrality
• Population deviation
• Staggered-senate-term disenfranchisement
  

Redistricting is a "big data" problem, a once-in-a-decade task of immense complexity.  There are more ways to divide up a state than atoms in the known universe.  Most states have more than 1000 voting precincts and more than 100,000 census blocks, each needing to be assigned to a district, and the goal is to create a map that achieves an optimal balance among the twelve criteria above.

The sheer magnitude and diversity of data needed to develop good maps, and the dizzying number of decisions that must be made, places redistricting in the "big data" realm.  Big data problems are ideally suited for analysis by computer algorithms that access, manage, and apply all relevant data to reach desired outcomes.

Our FastMap computer algorithm takes the guesswork out of the redistricting process.  We tell you what is possible and what is not possible for the districts in your state or locality.  We give you a set of computer-generated maps that better meet your requirements than any manually-created map. 

Humans will always make the final redistricting decisions.  Our FastMap algorithm allows them to choose from numerous outstanding options instead of a few mediocre ones that are manually created.  Click here to contact us.
