To locate a new site

1.Click the Address Search button on the standard toolbar.

If you already had a map loaded you will be prompted to save that map before another is loaded. We recommend that you save any loaded map before locating another.

The Locate by dialog box also contains an Open saved maps tab to allow you to search through your previously saved maps, and a Locate by export frame tab to allow you to locate to your site by the area you wish to export . You can select which tab is automatically displayed by default by clicking on the Default starting tab drop down menu in the bottom left hand corner of this window.

If you have any new downloads available you will also be notified on this window.
