On the right side of the page, in the box labeled GIS Layers under “Operational Layers” is a box labeled “Planning_Env.” Click on the small gray arrow to the left of the box, see the example below, to enable the Map Layers.
Below the ‘Planning_Env’ box is the list of available Map Layers. All map layers are ‘Scale-Dependent’ – they are disabled (grayed-out) beyond a certain map scale. ‘Zooming-in’ (use + or – signs at the top left corner of the screen) on the map frame will enable/activate the layers. Each layer can be individually toggled (checking the layer’s box) to display in the map frame.
Clicking on the small gray arrow will expand that layer’s legend (color-coded symbols).
