GIS/Mapping Centre - Winnipeg and Region Green Map

Note: Internet Explorer users may have some issues with the map functioning properly. It is recommended that you try Firefox, Safari, or Opera.


How to use this Green Map:

Legend
Each legend category can be expanded to see the points that belong to it. Click on the expand/collapse link. Once expanded, each point type can be individually turned on or off by clicking its corresponding checkbox.

NOTE: If the category's checkbox is disabled, then clicking the point type's checkbox will do nothing.

Map
Click and drag on the map to pan the view, or click the arrows in on the directional pad in the top left corner. The  button in the middle of the arrows will recentre the map to its original location. Use this if you get "lost".

Holding your mouse over a location will show the name of the point if it is a Green Map point. Clicking on the point will open an information window (See next section) .For the points and layers on the second part of the legend ("Other Layers"), no information is available.

To zoom the map, use your mouse wheel. If you don't have a mouse wheel, click and drag on the slider on the left to get closer (up) or farther (down). Zooming too far out will cause the markers to disappear. On the city map, the "City of Winnipeg Points" will disappear at a different zoom than the other poitns.

You can change the type of map displayed with the buttons in the top right. Hybrid is the default and will show streets and a ground photo. Map will show no ground image (streets, etc only) and Satellite will show no street names.

Windows
Upon clicking on a Green Map point, an 'Info Window' will open showing available information about that particular point. Click the X in the top right of the window to close it, or just click outside the window.

Other
On the Winnipeg map, there is an area drawn with the Spence Neighbourhood Association logo on it. Clicking inside this area will bring up a window that can take you directly to the Spence Neighbourhood map.
