Inspecting information on the map

Information can be retrieved from the map by simply clicking within it. Precisely where you click is important as only information from map objects found at that point will be retrieved. Therefor if you wish to retrieve information for a School or other point object, you need to click on that point.

The information is displayed in the Information Browser pane. There will be a tab for every layer that has a map object at the point where you clicked.
