The Canadian 2012 Redistribution of Federal Electoral Districts website has used Google Maps to create a tool for voters to view proposed electoral boundary changes.
Using the map is is possible to view the existing electoral districts and the proposed electoral districts and names. Both the existing and proposed boundaries can be viewed separately or viewed simultaneously as an overlay on the map.
Users can search for boundaries by address or postal code. It is also possible to save a PDF file of a map view showing either the existing and proposed electoral boundaries or both together.
If the Lib Dems ever let their coalition partners here in the UK pass their boundary changes we could benefit from this.
