Themes

This tool enables the selection of individual ‘themed’ layers of information to be shown on the map.


Pass the arrow cursor over the ‘Themes’ button, click once with the left-hand mouse button, this will bring up a list of selected themes to the left of the map window.


Move the cursor over your chosen theme and click once to select. The map may appear to change ‘style’, this is because it is presenting the map information in a different way. Individual themes may display particular features such as trees or electricity substations, or it may present the map as aerial photography, or as a landline map. Once the theme is chosen, the information displayed will remain the same (until another theme is selected), regardless of scale or level of detail on the map. So you can zoom in or out, pan the map or click for information, within each theme.
