About this news graphic

Map Locator explains where a story is happening: a stylised coastline, an animated track and a pinging marker with your place name.

The side panel holds a title, a category badge and up to six stats — perfect for weather, traffic and breaking events.

Every headline, number and name is editable from your phone while you’re live, and your network name and logo carry across the whole set.
