Honeycomb Tile Map – QBeeQ

Traditional geographic maps can be misleading when larger states visually dominate, while smaller ones fade, skewing the interpretation of data. When you need to compare performance across states, the Honeycomb Tile Map makes it easy with clean, easy-to-read heatmaps that focus on the data, not the map. By using equal-sized tiles for each state, it removes geographic distortion and keeps comparisons fair and clear.
