Reading it. Derived from BEA real GDP by state (chained dollars), so it strips out inflation. Total output, not output per person.

Comparing states is harder than it looks. A dollar buys more in some states than others, and survey estimates carry a margin of error. Read the map for the pattern, not for a precise ranking.
