Maps in geospatial analysis
Maps are available in many locations in Touchstone.
Maps are available in the following areas:
- Exposure Summary Dashboard, where the map opens after you open a contract.
- Contract Details pane
- Geospatial analysis configuration
- Analysis results: Loss, Data Quality, Hazard, Geospatial, and Loss Groups
The map includes an overview map in the upper left corner. After zooming in on the map, the overview map displays, in a red extent box, the location of the zoomed in extent in the world. To move the extent box on the overview map, use the pointer to drag it. This topic provides information about map tools, the Map window, and how to move around the map.
Map tools
When you open a map, Touchstone displays map tools in the upper right corner of the map (see the Map Tools topic for more information).
In some cases, as with the Exposure Summary Dashboard, the map
appears by default. In other cases, you click
(Show/Hide Content Items) in the sidebar and then select the Map option
in the View Options window. With Data Quality results, you must
first select the Geography view in the Report Detail Viewer
window and then select the Map option in the View Options
window.
Map window
To retrieve information for an individual location, move the pointer over the corresponding point on the map and click the location point; a popup box displays information for the location. For Property Exposure analyses, the information includes total replacement values. For Workers' Compensation analyses, the information includes employee values. If the location is part of a cluster of locations, zoom in on the map until the cluster is broken apart into individual locations. Click X to close the information box.
Move and zoom the map
You can move the map by clicking on it and then dragging it in the desired direction. In addition, when you move the pointer over the inactive navigation tools in the lower left corner of the exposure map, the navigation tools become active.
