Tools
Measurement:
Coordinate ID/Conversion:
Area Identify:
Note: When Coordinate or Measurement tools are activated, the tool widget appears on the map below. If viewing on a small (mobile) screen, close this pane to use the widget. Use the button below to deactivate that tool and close the widget. The Area Identify tool works by activating and drawing a rectangle on the map to ID all the point features (oil and gas wells, water wells and springs, landslide points, etc) in that area (ID page opens in a new window).
Bookmark Map
This function will create two bookmark links to save the current map layout with or without the current extent:

These basemaps are displayed above the ESRI basemaps. The KY Topographic Map Series is displayed by default. Turn off these layers to display ESRI basemaps (select below). Learn more about KYFromAbove layers .
KY basemap layers are displayed above these ESRI basemaps. Turn off the KY basemaps layers to display these ESRI basemaps.
Note: the layers are grouped by type. Expand each group to turn off/on individual layers in a group. And make sure to turn the group on to display those layers.
Print
This print tool currently honors the default opacity/transparency of each layer (if you change the opacity of a layer, the updated rendering will NOT be printed). Most polygon layers have some transparency set (e.g. the geologic map layers are set at 20% transparent by default). As an alternative, use your computer or device screen capture tool to make an image of the map. We are currently working on a solution for this issue.

Legend Issues: Some legend items may not print in the layout. This is a known issue at this time. If you need a legend, screen capture the legend from the Legend menu.
