Dear users,
I am pleased to say that the polygon editor tool is working smoothly. Just to refresh those users that have not yet utilized this tool: It allows you to digitize polygon areas like lakes, parks, buildings, sport fields, etc into the People's Map and classify them according to pre-determined land use categories. This tool allows users to create greater map detail to be added to the People’s Map.
The People's Map team is constantly working on improving the tools and functionalities in order for our users to create better, more accurate data with ease. Although these are only in planning/development phase, I wanted to keep you informed of what improvements you can expect to see in the coming months.
The main improvement you will notice is an increased map screen and a general menu layout improvement. A functionality to split roads is also being developed. This will for instance allow users to split the geometry of an existing road, delete less accurate section and re-digitize the new more accurate section. This tool will also be helpful to digitize the exact path of roundabouts in a road. We are also working on creating another zoom layer in Peoples Map that will allow users to view more detail aerial imagery and allow you digitize building outlines, parks, etc more accurately.
Since the People's Map is a mapping tool for the people, we would like to keep improving the tools and functionalities according to the requirements of our users. We therefore rely on you to inform us of any improvements that can be made to the existing functionalities and tools.
We look forward to receive all your comments and suggestions. If you do not want to comment directly on this blog, please feel free to send us an email to one of the following People's Map addresses.
Regards,
Chlodwik
