a
2x3 grid: top row has 2 maps, middle row has 2 charts, and bottom row has
2 text boxes of statistical information

if
all three rows are placed in one screen, the maps and charts become difficult
to read, so the text boxes should be on the page, but off the screen, where
they can reached by scrolling |
