At a glance
The Map Widget lets you display maps on your website using high-quality, local-level mortality data for heart disease and stroke that is automatically updated annually by CDC. Maps are displayed at the state level for the entire United States and at the county level for each state. The maps are interactive, enabling visitors to your site to view maps of heart disease and stroke death rates by racial or ethnic group and gender.
Embed this map widget on your website
It is easy to embed the map widget on your website using the code below (or share this code with your website administrator). Once added, technical maintenance is not required.
The code for the map widget enables you to select two default settings for the interactive maps:
- Heart disease or stroke mortality
- Choose the state
These default settings determine which maps visitors to your site will see initially, but they can change the maps using the interactive features.
Code sequence to set the default map for heart disease or stroke:
- data-default-dataset="Heart Disease" (or choose "Stroke")
Code sequence to set the default state will be displayed:
- data-default-state="Alabama" (choose the state)
If the name of the state has two words, use the following style: "North%20Carolina" (or choose the state that applies).
