Have you been paying attention?

For those that have read my comments in Thread 137755 regarding the future of EOTopo map data outputs, you will be interested to know that EOTopo online VECTOR IS NOW LIVE (as a demo).

Click here - EOTopo Online to view it, BUT NOTE below...

NOTE: By default the map that is open is not the new Vector map, you need to look below that and click the heading "EOTopo 2018.1 Vector". This will open the new Vector map window. Make sure you click the symbol to enlarge the map to full screen for best viewing.

In this demo online vector system, we are offering you some features to use with the map including;

1. zoom to Level 22 (scale symbol bottom left shows 1m), map scale output is 1: 550 (0.55K) as you can see this is ridiculously close and in reality, it's impractical but we have the data and we can output it, so have some fun playing with it :)

2. Rotate & Pitch (3D) controls - very nice! Notice road labels rotate etc

3. Fly To option (to quickly pan the map to pre-set locations) - very nice interface

4. zoom increments by whole levels (eg. Level 9 to Level 10) by using the + symbol, but if you use a mouse with scroll wheel the zoom increments are 0.1 increments so Level 9 to Level 9.1, to Level 9.2 etc). As per current raster tile zoom system, more detail is revealed as you zoom closer but the vector output is a much smoother system

5. press the GPS symbol in the top right to fly and lock to your current position

We didn't have this ready to feature in the recent newsletter, so just posting here for your information today. We will release another newsletter early next week with further information. Please feel welcome to ask questions etc.
