Controls

There are some controls available in the Map tab:

• Surrounding Tenements
  By default the Map tab only displays the tenements that are selected in the DataGrid. Clicking the Surrounding toggle button will show / hide other tenements within the map view, but keep the selected tenements highlighted.

• Satellite Overlay
  The Satellite Overlay toggle button wil change the background layer to a satellite map (as in Google Maps).

• Toggle Labels
  This button will toggle labels displaying the tenement ID for each tenement polygon in the view.
  Note: Tenement labels may not be displayed at certain zoom levels. There needs to be appropriate space on the map for the label to be displayed. If the label is not being shown try zooming in on the map.
  

• Toggle Layers
  This button toggles a layer control, allowing you to turn on/off a range of additional layers, and adjust their opacity.

Building a Tenement Map

To build a custom map of selected tenements:

1. Turn surrounding tenements ON using the Surrounding toggle button.
2. Select any number of tenements on the map by left-clicking them with the mouse.
3. Turn surrounding tenements OFF by clicking the Surrounding toggle button again.
   

You will be left with a map displaying only the tenements you have selected. Try turning the satellite overlay and labels ON, and you have a very useful map view of tenements, which could graphically highlight a Project.
