• Road
• PostCode

PlanAccess has anumber of useful features accessable via buttons on screen

• Info Tool allows you to call up any information relating to a selected point/ feature on the map. For example in the planning theme, by clicking on any green shared area a summary of the planning application for that area is displayed
• Zoom In allows you to zoom into the map: it will enlarge any area you wish to look at in more detail.
• Zoom Out allows you to zoom out of the map: it will show you a wider area of the map on screen, but with less detail.
• Pan Map By depressing the left-hand mouse button and dragging the cursor, it is possible to pull the map around the screen as you would a paper map on the desk. The previously unseen areas of the map (the white areas) will be redrawn when the mouse button is released.
• Print Map allows you to print the map as currently viewed on screen.
• Find my Nearest allows you to find the nearest facility within a certain distance.
  Select the appropriate facility to search for by clicking on the side arrow on the top box. This will reveal a pull-down box with the choice of: Library or School. Click your facility category.
  Select the maximum search distance in kilometers by clicking on the side arrow on the second box.

PlanAccess has been designed to work with Microsoft Internet Explorer version 4.0 and Netscape version 4.0 and above. You may need to load 'Virtual Machine' which can be downloaded from: www.java.com/en/index.jsp
