Detailed Description

This class provides an API to building, displaying and manipulating US maps and counties in BRIDGES.

In the current implementation, we can draw a US map with all state boundaries, a map with all US state and county boundaries, or specify a set of states and display the state and/or county boundaries.

Functions are provided to access each US state or county and color its boundary or its interior using the stroke color and fill color functions. This lets us build map based applications where the fill fill color can be used to represent different data attributes, such population counts, election statistics or any attribute at the state or county level.

See the Maps tutorials for examples of the usage of the US Map API at https://bridgesuncc.github.io/tutorials/Map.html
