A map which is displaying many Base Stations, or NTRIP Clients<\/a>, or Reverse\u00a0 IP Geo locations<\/a> can become quite cluttered and also slow to refresh.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Clicking on the legend labels displays<\/em> or hides<\/em> the various categories of data, but larger Casters often still have many points to display in each category.<\/p>\n

Whenever the SNIP<\/strong><\/span> operator clicks on a cluster icon, the map is resized to expose that area of detail.\u00a0 The clustering effect is nested to allow easy navigation down to the point of interest. Pop-up displays then provide further information in the normal way found in prior releases.<\/p>\n

In the above images both the ‘map view’ and the ‘satellite view’ Goggle maps are shown.<\/p>\n

Each cluster type (Base Stations, NTRIP Clients, and IP geo locations) has its own set of cluster markers.<\/p>\n
