Use case: We can build really useful pages for analyzing crash data in support of Vision Zero, but some analytics are related to summarizing / visualizing crash point data in complex intersections where its necessary to lasso select a cluster of points to drive the associated cards.

Right now, sharing these types of pages is moot because the shared page does not include the lasso / box select tools.

Thank you for providing this Idea and use case here! The current way to accomplish something like this would be to create a new data set from the selected features.

Selections are designed to be a temporary workflow for targeting areas of interest within the map, but if pre-determined selection areas should be shared and focused on, then saving them as a new data set would be beneficial. The new data set can then added into the map as a second layer, and the map can be shared and analyzed.

That being said, thank you for providing this feedback, if you have any other aspects to this desired functionality which you would like to expand on, please feel free to leave it in the comments.
