E.3 Adding a Layer to a Custom Map

There are two ways to add multiple layers to a map. You can create multiple layers based on independent shape files (for example, one layer based on a U.S. county shape file, and another layer based on a U.S. state shape file). You can also use the OpenJUMP software to create arbitrary larger regions composed from the original regions of a single shape file. The following sections explain these approaches.
