Esri International User Conference 2001 Paper # 397 Minnesota Department of Natural Resources LandView -- Map Objects Application Development -- July, 2001

When the Lake Maps button  is selected the cursor will change to a pencil, which allows the user to select any available lake. When a lake that has a hand drawn DNR map available is selected, another window will open up with a contour map of that lake.

Each lake may have multiple maps.  The LandView Lake Map window will show up to 25 maps of one lake (in the above example, Leech lake has 22 different lake maps (A)).  The Blue X toggle button (B) will display the name of the lake (C).

From within this new window there is the option to save the lake map as a separate file (with a standard Microsoft Windows file saving menu) as well as other tools. The lake maps that are available have been developed by the DNR Lake Mapping program in the EcoServices Section of the Division of Fish and Wildlife. These files can be retrieved from a CD-ROM that was developed by the Lake Mapping Program and are to be copied to a file system location using the county tiled storage format and naming conventions found on the CD-ROM.
