Help on how to use the interactive maps

Close this window


The maps on the website can be used interactively. The four buttons on the right of the map work as follows:


Zoom in

Zoom in on the map: Select this button and click on the map. The place were you click will become the center of the new map showing a smaller area.

Zoom out

Zoom out of the map: Select this button and click on the map. The place were you click will become the center of the new map showing a larger area.

Recenter

Recenter the map: Select this button and click on the map. The place were you click will become the center of the new map with the same zoom level as before.

Info

Get info on a station: Select this button and click on a station (i.e. dot or circle). A pop-up window will give you the details of the station closest to the point where you clicked.


Other options on the right of the map give links to download the map as a graph or to download the station data as ASCII files. It is also possible to show the name of the stations and/or countries on the map by selecting the appropriate box. Clicking on reset map will result in an empty map with default zoom level and center point.
