Help on the Google map interface
The Google map interface allows you to tell us where you made your
observations by simply clicking on a map.
- When you click on the Goto Map button on the site registration
form a new window will open with a Google map of Britain and Ireland.
- You can navigate around by dragging the map, and zoom in by
either using the slider bar on the left or by double-clicking
your mouse on the map itself. Once you have zoomed in to your
site, you can view the map as a satellite image or 'hybrid', allowing
you to pinpoint your site location exactly.
- Once you have found your site, you can select it by holding
'Shift' and clicking on the centre of your recording site. A grid
reference will be selected and you just need to confirm this.
- The map window will close and you will be back at the site registration
form. The grid reference boxes on that form will have been completed
automatically.
