When completed, however, Regional Pre-Plan Layers will allow for Pre-Planning on a larger scale that will not need to be assigned or associated with an address. This will be crucial when Pre-Planning events such as marathons, large scale celebrations or Pre-Planning geographic areas like rivers and trails.

ArcGIS Map Technology


1. ArcGIS Map technology can show any Map Styles that you have been granted access to from your GIS department.




2.  The Map Layers that are also available in Google Maps are identical in ArcGIS. Other Map Layers may be available to you based on what your GIS department grants users access to as well. Check with your GIS department or Program administrator for information on any additional layer available in ArcGIS.
