Map waypoints¶
Map waypoints puts markers on the map from a locator or a latitude and longitude. It is for operators who want a point of interest on the map while they plan.
What it does¶
Each marker is part of the tool's map layer, which the app draws in the theme's colours. The tool keeps the last 500 markers; they last while the tool runs.
