Basemaps and Map Layers allow you to view specific geographic information when adding a new location or viewing existing locations, either from the Location tab or within Outreach.
Basemaps
There are two basemap options: Map and Imagery with Labels. To select a basemap, click the Basemap icon within the map.
The Imagery with Labels basemap includes satellite and high-resolution aerial imagery and place names.
Continuum of Care Boundaries
If your system administrator has enabled Outreach, you can view CoC boundaries when adding or viewing locations. This is accomplished by clicking the Layers icon in the map and the View icon beside CoC Boundary.
Viewing the map with this layer will allow you to identify if a location falls within the boundaries of the CoC. These boundaries are defined by the CoC GIS shapefiles, published by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) each year.
