district mapping

District mapping is the process of dividing a larger geographic area, such as a state or country, into smaller, distinct sections called districts. These boundaries are drawn based on population, geographic features, or political considerations, to ensure each district is balanced and fair. This process is important for elections, as it helps organize voting areas for representatives. Accurate district mapping ensures that communities are properly represented, preventing gerrymandering or unfair advantages. It involves collecting geographic and demographic data, then using it to create boundaries that reflect the diversity and size of the population.
