Map Tools
In general, the map tools provide functionality that allows you to change what the cursor does when you click on the map. Below is an explanation of each map tool.

Zoom In
Zoom In
 The Zoom In tool allows you to zoom in closer to areas on the map. To use the zoom in tool, click the zoom in button, and use your mouse to either 1) click on a location of interest or 2) draw a "box" around the area you want to zoom to. To draw a "box", place the cursor at one corner of the area, click and hold the left mouse button, and drag the cursor to the other corner of your area and release. The zoom in tool will zoom in to and center on the clicked point or drawn "box."

Zoom Out
Zoom Out
 The Zoom Out tool allows you to zoom out to view a larger map area. To use the zoom out tool, click the zoom out button, and use your mouse to either 1) click on a location or 2) draw a "box" as described in the Zoom In tool. The zoom out tool will zoom out and center on the clicked point or drawn "box." Note: the smaller the box, the more you zoom out.
