Last updated: June 5, 2020
Description:
The spatial search feature allows you to search MapGeo by drawing polygons on the map instead of requiring a field to search on.
Process:
Go to the Search tab in the upper right hand corner of the site.
Next to the “Spatial Filters” section, select the “Add” button.
Select the shape you would like to use for the search. Polygon allows you to create a free-hand shape.
Watch this instructional video for more information on drawing your shape.
Add your shape to the map.
Click the “Refine Search” button in the Search panel on the right side of the screen.
Your results will populate in a list in the right hand panel.
Helpful Hints
You can create a spatial search and refine the search further by looking for specific attributes like names or streets in the search area by adding additional fields to the search.
