trap.nz New Traps overview page

 

Trap.nz is always looking for ways to help the usability of our product, to aid this the new trap overview page has been developed

 

The first noticeable change is the filters section under the station tabs

When you select the filters it opens up to allow you to select the options you are wanting to view

You can also choose to view your traps on the map or as a table by selecting the tabs above the map

The new map has a variety of options that the old map didn’t

You can now use your mouse to scroll in and out of the map.

You can opt to show your installations clustered or unclustered by selecting the option to turn off clustering in the tiles

The map will remember the  selection you have been previously working in.

You can now tilt the maps to suit your needs, this can be achieved three ways

1 hold the ctrl key on your keyboard and use your mouse to tilt the map from various angles

2 right click and drag

3 on the trackpad of your laptop a two finger click and drag

The map also shows road names when aerial hybrid and topographic are selected

 

The new trap icons

To align with the trap.nz mobile phone app the icons have been changed to

Adding records

 

You can now quickly add a new trap record or edit a trap by clicking on the individual trap on the map

Or use the table to add records

After you have entered the new trap records, you will be directed to the individual trap detail page, click the “trap” tab

You will be returned to the old trap overview, you can now select to return to the new trap overview page by clicking the link. (this is temporary until the new overview becomes familiar and permanent)

And if you still want to use the old map select the tab above the map to take you back to the old view
