3.5: Interactive Travel Map

Add greater interactivity and overall map traffic.

Other Information:

The Bureau of Public Affairs created an interactive map to track Secretary Clinton’s foreign travel. To date, Secretary Clinton has traveled more than 260,000 miles as Secretary of State. The map enables users to see where the Secretary is at any given time, calculates miles traveled (throughout the trip and cumulatively as Secretary), displays photos from the road (posted on Flickr), and features the Secretary’s remarks and blogs. This program is also integrated with the State Department’s Facebook page. Direct link: http://www.state.gov/secretary/trvl/map/ . The map has 2,341,594 page views since inception on Feb. 28, 2009. The Department plans to add greater interactivity and opportunities for users to directly engage with Department officials. The Department will also begin featuring several maps, from which the user will be able to create their own combined maps based on an individual's interests. The Department plans to add greater interactivity and overall map traffic 30% in 2010.
