NOTE: 

Only the data that is viewable on the screen is 

included in the strike rate. Therefore, you can zoom in 
and see what the strike rate is locally, or you can zoom 
out for a bigger picture.  
 
Also, when panning with the cursor on the Map Page, 
you can zoom in and isolate individual cells. Please 
note, however, that strike data is not typically updated 
on the Map Page while the panning cursor is on. 
Therefore, when the panned map is first displayed, the 
data is only a “snapshot” of conditions (as mentioned 
above, the strike rate will reflect viewable data only).
