The GeoPlan window is displayed when a network is opened. It displays a geographical representation of the network and allows the display of additional layers of map information. Using this view, it is possible to inspect any part of the network, edit any of its objects or add new objects to the network.
Some of the GeoPlan functionality is provided by a third party GIS product. InfoWorks WS Pro currently supports:
- MapX and MapXtreme from PBBI.
- ArcGIS from ESRI.
These allow the display of background maps and additional layers in PBBI or ESRI format. You should purchase and use the appropriate InfoWorks WS Pro version depending on your mapping needs. To change the GIS product used by InfoWorks WS Pro, see the Changing the Current Map Control topic.
