WORKING WITH YOUR DATA


LandVision™ 8.18 has several new features and enhancements to existing features that make it easier for you to add and work with your own data on the map. With the Add Notes and Attach Documents features you can now link your comments, information and related files directly to a parcel in LandVision™. Adding your own notes and documents to parcels puts all the information about a property at your fingertips, enhances collaboration, and saves time.

We've also simplified our drawing tools and markup layer behavior so you have greater flexibility to create multiple markup layers, quickly toggle among active markups, and save groups of markups into their own layer. Markup Labels are easier to use and can be rotated, display multiple lines of text, and fixed to real-world units so your labels are appropriately sized when you zoom in or out. The new LandVision™ also features an improved Site Plan Overlay tool that allows you to zoom in and out and pan the map while in edit mode. And the ability to toggle off Bing™ Map Labels to display only aerial imagery gives you another backdrop option for map making.

With our new Layer "Save As" and "Copy As" commands you can readily move layers you've created in LandVision™ or imported into LandVision™ among folders and create copies. This helps with managing versions of your layers and sharing them with colleagues.
