New Matrix Search to Launch October 10

On Tuesday morning October 10, the new interface for the Matrix search will be visible to all users. The new search will not be the default search – but you will have a button at the top of the search page to “Try New Search”. The New Search provides a “three panel” view which is much more mobile friendly. Once search criteria is entered, that panel can be collapsed to view just the map and the list or gallery view.

Please note that at this time, the “New Search” is optional, and you have the ability to revert back to the current (now called Classic) search at any time. If and when this New Search becomes the default search page, we will give you plenty of notice.

On November 10th you’ll notice a new “Try Our New Search” button in the top left of the page:

Once you’re in the new search view, your screen will look like this:

This new three panel view works even better on mobile than the previous search format:
