Quick tour
The exact features in your Web Mapping Application may vary.
This is a tour of some common features in many applications.
- Start the Web Mapping Application from the URL you
have been given.
- If you have a wheel mouse, zoom in on the map by
moving the mouse over the map and scrolling the wheel
forward a few times.
- Pan (re-center),
,
the map by holding down the left mouse button and
dragging on the map. The pan function is the default
tool, active when the application starts.
- Draw a rectangle to zoom to that area. Hold Shift on the
Keyboard, then click and drag
on the map to draw a rectangle, and release the mouse button.
The map zooms into the area of the rectangle.
- If the Navigation image
is available, click on an arrow in the image
(North, South, East, West) to pan (re-center) the map in that
direction. Pan back the opposite direction. Notice the map is
already present in areas you return to. This illustrates the
caching functionality of the application.
- Build a Route by placing Stops on the map. Click on the
Map to place a Stop. After placing 2 or more Stops click
Get Route on the tool panel.
- Explore other content and tools in the map. We hope
you find this Web Mapping Application useful and fun!
