Navigation Tools

The magnifying glass allows you to zoom in or out on a selected point of a surface. Left clicking will zoom in, right clicking will zoom out. Clicking and dragging the left mouse button will zoom in on an area of interest.

The grab tool allows you to move the surface on the screen by clicking and holding, then dragging. This is most useful with large surfaces or when zoomed into a single section of the surface.

The pointer tool switches the cursor back to selection mode.

Zoom to full extent will change the zoom level to fit the entire surface on the screen.

The crosshairs will toggle on and off the display of a crosshair at the mouse’s position on the working area.

The camera captures the surface as a geo-image with latitude and longitude or UTM (easting and northing), in multiple standard image types. 

Google Earth will capture the current display area and overlay it on a satellite image of the field location. 

NOTE: You must have Google Earth Pro installed on your computer for this to work.

The ruler is used to measure the distance along a selected origin point and the current cursor position. Left-click to add points, and right-click to start measuring a new line. The tool measures the total length of the line and the area enclosed by the line will also be displayed.

Rotate will cause the surface to rotate 90° to the right with each click. There is no option to change rotation direction or degrees it will rotate by.
