I'm trying to come up with something focused on CA competitions (specifically norcal since I'm not sure how much time I'll have), but I may expand it later on. Look out for something (hopefully) soon!

Tableau for the graphs and Excel storing/formatting the data. I found it to be the most intuitive way to deal with any sort of location-type data. I haven't found a way to tell it which state cities are in though, so I have to link city data to zip codes and map that. Once that's done though, I really like it because I can give it a list of locations per year and create either multiple columns of maps, or pages that it can loop through (the gifs are screenshots of that).

If you'd like more details or have any other questions let me know--I'm happy to go into more specifics if you'd like.
