[Qgis-user] Multiple Map Layout

[Lee Hachadoorian]

I've used QGIS to create a layout with a main map and an inset (e.g.,
Continental US with Alaska and Hawai'i as inset maps at different scales).
But that's just two "viewports" onto the same underlying data. I wanted to
make a layout where the same area would be displayed with two different
symbolizations, side by side on the page for comparison. For those familiar
with ArcGIS, I would normally accomplish this with two Data Frames.

Is there any way to do this with QGIS? Or do I have to create two QGIS
projects, and combine the maps externally (presentation software, page
layout software, etc.)?

Thanks,
--Lee
