Buffer MarkupUse the Buffer Markup tool to create buffers around any of your markup, including points and Polyline. Click the Buffer Markup tool, and then click the map and drag your mouse to draw a rectangle around any geometries you want to use for creating buffers. Specify the attributes of your buffers (including buffer distance and unit of measurement) in the Markup Buffer area. You can choose to have the original geometries displayed or removed after the buffer is created by selecting or clearing the Remove Selected Geometry check box in the Markup Buffer area.

To reopen a map session, select the Open Project tool and locate your project in one of two ways. You can enter the Project ID of a saved project and hit ‘Submit,’ or you can click ‘Browse’ to search for a project that was downloaded to your computer, then press ‘Upload’ to open the file. Save Project: The Save Project tool allows you to save a mapping session for later use or reference. Click the Save Project tool to save your current map viewer extent, layer configuration, and any added markup to be accessed at a later date. You can choose to copy the Project ID for future use, or download your project file and open it later using the Open Project tool. You can also copy the hyperlink provided to open your project in a browser window, as well as use the URL for e-mailing or adding to your map browser favorites Export Map Image : The Export Map Image tool allows you to open, download or e-mail the current map image, optionally georeferenced. You can select among several image formats and resolutions for the exported image.

To remove custom extents from the Jump to Extent box, click the Delete Bookmark button to the left of the extents that you want to remove. Zoom to Coordinates It allows the user to enter known coordinates to zoom in to a specific location.

19. TheSearch Toolbox The Search Toolbox : The Search Toolbox contains custom search tools developed for your mapping application. If no custom search tools were developed, you will not see the Search Toolbox. Note that the Toolbox may contain additional custom tools not related to searching. The Searches Tool : When clicking on this tool, a search box pops up. It offers the user a selection of tabs from which to choose the layers to be queried.

20. TheSearch Toolbox (continue) *The Search toolbox will probably the one tool that will be used the most Although, in general, there will be about 100 layers on a browser, only a handful of these data sets have been given priority to perform searches on (as denoted by each tab seen on the upper portion of the search box). (You could still query any layer using the layer attribute function {as exemplified later on}).

21. TheSearch Toolbox (continue) Search action uses an Autofill function similar to those found on browsers such as Google, MSN, Yahoo, and others.

22. TheSearch Toolbox (continue) After selecting the attribute you are looking for, the search function will provide a feature report from which you can then interact with the data.

23. TheSearch Toolbox (continue) The Feature Action Box: This box contains four different functions that can help you interact with your attribute and spatial data. The Add to or Remove From Selection Tool: This tool when click once changes in hue: when both little icons show a light blue color, it denotes that the layer is ready to add a selected attribute to the report window (See picture below). This tool after being clicked, it removes the selected record from the selection report window For example, after being clicked, the selected attribute (in this case parcel data (1)) will be removed from the selected group.

24. TheSearch Toolbox (continue) The view Map: Feature Map button: Allows you to get a quick glance of the selected attribute(s) on the map.

25. This bottom allows you to get a pop up window that contains hyperlinks to Public Works drawings.

26. TheSearch Toolbox (continue) The view Report: This button leads users to see a more detail report of selected records ( Please see below)

27. TheSearch Toolbox (continue) The Find by Attribute Tool: When clicking on this tool, a find by attribute box pops up. It gives the user the opportunity to query a feature layer by its data attributes. Multiple queries are allowed when clicking the add bottom ( ).

28. TheSearch Toolbox (continue) The Report Box: For the average user, the tool that would be most useful will be the: Zoom to Feature tab when using the this toolbox.

29. Zoom to Feature Function: This tool allows the user to go directly to the selected record on the map, *The other 3 tabs were described earlier.

30. Layer Actions on the Layer List Panel Using Layer Actions : The layer panel on the left of the map offers a number of actions the user can perform. To perform a layer action on a layer, click the (underlined) name of the layer in the Layer List and select the action from the menu (This example shows only the “Zoom to full extent function”. The particular actions that are available for a layer depends on users’ requirements.
