Dashboard
Your Locus intelligence surface — see national activity at a glance with one click to drill into the Explorer for cell-level scoring and signal panels.
The Locus dashboard is the home screen for your workspace. It surfaces portfolio alerts, market pulse, and emerging signals, and includes a national activity mini-map that lets you jump straight into the Explorer at any location.
National activity mini-map
The mini-map is the shared UnifiedMap component running in preview mode — the exact same map core the Explorer uses, minus the filter, ranking, and selection controls. It renders the same axiom_events signal that powers the full Explorer, scoped to the last 90 days across the contiguous United States, so the dashboard preview and the deep-dive read identically — same palette, same weight stops — and feel like one tool.
Because the two surfaces share one map core, the dashboard heatmap uses the Explorer's activity paint (smaller radius, lower opacity, lighter color alphas than the previous dashboard-only palette). This is a deliberate UX convergence — the Explorer map is unchanged.
What it shows
- Heat density — concentration of recent events (permits, civic, maritime, and other public-record signals) over the last 90 days.
- Event count — total events in the visible window, shown in the top-left caption.
- Color ramp — purple (low) → green → gold → orange (high), matched 1:1 with the Explorer map.
How to use it
Scan the country
The map opens fitted to CONUS so you can spot hot regions at a glance — corridors of permit activity, port congestion clusters, civic-record spikes.
Click anywhere to score that location
Clicking a point opens the Explorer at that exact coordinate (/explore?lat=…&lng=…) with the score panel ready. No generic map view — you land where you clicked.
Open the full Explorer
Use the Open Explorer button in the top-right when you want the full-map workspace with filters, isochrones, and the cell sidebar.
The mini-map is decorative when the activity feed is unavailable — your dashboard stat cards always render, even if the heatmap endpoint is degraded.
Saved Searches
The dashboard right rail includes a Saved Searches panel for re-running filter discoveries. It shows each saved search's name and saved date, and each row links to /discover?saved=<id>.
Use the panel's New search link to open /discover. When there are no saved searches, the panel directs you to save a discovery filter from /discover.
