The Markup page provides you with the ability to draw on the map.  You can draw points, circles, rectangles, lines.  You can also place text on the map.  All of your drawings and text appear in red.  Once you have drawn on the map, you can create a PDF file of the map, including your markups, that you can save or send to someone else.

 

Your drawings will disappear once you click on the “Clear” button in the toolbar, or when you close the browser window.

 

 

To draw on the map:

  • To draw point(s), click on the “Point” option and click on the map at each location where you want a point to appear.
  • To draw circle(s), click on the “Circle” option and then click and drag your mouse from the center to the perimeter of each circle that you want to draw.  Note:  In Mozilla/Firefox browsers, the circle will not appear until AFTER you release the mouse.
  • To draw rectangle(s), click on the “Rectangle” option and then click and drag your mouse from one corner of each rectangle to the opposite corner. 
  • To draw line(s), click on the “Line” option and then click and drag your mouse from one end of the line to the opposite end.  Note:  In Mozilla/firefox browsers, the circle will not appear until AFTER you release the mouse.

To draw text, click on the “Text” option.  An entry field appears where you type your text.  There are three ways to place the text on the map:  Using all three methods, you specify a point, and the text appears below and to the right of the selected point.

 

    • At cursor click.  Each time you click the mouse on the map, the text will be placed at that location.
    • At latitude/longitude.  You specify the latitude and longitude where the text should be placed, and click on the “Set Text On Map” button.
    • At state plane coordinates.  You specify the northing and easting coordinates (in your local state plane coordinate system) where the text should be placed, and click on the “Set Text On Map” button.
