Users can filter the map to determine how various spaces are colored.
There are two types of map filters:

* Simple filter: Allows you to quickly highlight spaces based on conditions.
* Saved filter: Allows advanced filtering when you want to highlight spaces, based on conditions not supported by a simple filter.
