Let's be honest - one of the best things about having a piece of paper in your hand is being able to freely scribble notes down. Well, we tried to mimic that same concept on our digital map. Create a notes layer from the menu - decide who can view it - pick a color - and start drawing (points, lines or polygons). Leave a short note or a long description. It's as flexible as you need it to be.
​

Use it to notify your coworkers of upcoming maintenance. Remind yourself of an area that needs revisited later....or perhaps leave a note to indicate that an area has been inspected, plowed, valves flushed, whatever.
​

Many of you have faithfully mapped the location of utilities that are no longer in use. This is great information to have - and you can now easily tag any asset as 'abandoned' at the bottom of the details screen.
​

Out on the map - these features will be drawn lighter than the functioning assets; as shown below for a sample sanitary sewer line.
​

You also have the ability to toggle abandoned assets on/off in the map menu (where you change your base layer, etc).

Thanks to an impressive dataset that we received from a new subscriber - we've expanded the capabilities of our water, storm and sanitary sewer layer. You can now map & describe your laterals, grinder pumps, your curb stops, water meters and your fixtures (vents, cleanouts, hidden junctions, etc). Check it out and consider adding these additional fields into your mapping!
​

And finally - we're working on a host of new features that will benefit all; including the ability to search our basemap by address, simple measurement tools and a significant update/release of our roadway management feature. Stay tuned!
