About the map
The map was designed to be a resource for anyone curious about the state of the industry, or for those whose local casinos still remain closed. As well as a resource for viewing any future closures in the event of a resurgence in coronavirus cases.
The tool is updated in real-time and was created using the google maps API which looks at each casino's GoogleMyBusiness listing to see if it is currently marked as temporarily closed on google maps, either by the owners or user input.
