    • Owner's Name

    Layers tab contains folders with groups of layers for controlling whether or not to display them.

    Information tab is an area designated for listing tabular information and selecting variables for different tools.

 

  •  Toolbar enables you to interact with the map.  Some of the available tasks include:

  • Map Display shows the interactive map which you can navigate with tools or query and zoom to a location through tabular data.
  • Footer Information provides information about the map, such as map scale and map coordinates as user moves the mouse over the map.  Coordinates include local (WI - State Plane, central zone, NAD83-91), Latitude-Longitude, and US National Grid.
