Accessing and Using Preplans
SmartMAP displays on the map the locations of preplans created using APX SmartCapture.
When the SmartMAP map is zoomed out to its initial zoom level, preplan locations are
represented by map clusters. As the zoom level is increased, preplan icons will begin to appear. When an incident marker is placed on the SmartMAP
map—either by selecting an active building tile, using SmartMAP Search, or by placing an
incident marker using the marker menu—nearby preplans will be highlighted on the
map.
Note: If an
active building tile is selected, the nearby preplans will be automatically
highlighted. If an incident marker has been placed manually using the marker menu,
nearby preplans can be highlighted by tapping the marker and then selecting
Nearby Hydrants and Preplans.
Highlighted preplans will be displayed as larger than other preplan icons, and are selectable directly from the SmartMAP map. Selecting a highlighted preplan will present a label containing the preplan's address and name. Selecting the address within the label will open the preplan in SmartView. Multiple preplans that are at the same location and highlighted are represented with a icon. Selecting this icon will allow the user to select from the different preplans at that location.
Moving the incident marker, selecting the marker, and then selecting Nearby
Hydrants and Preplans will allow the user to highlight a different set
of preplans.
Note: When the incident marker is moved after having already been placed for
an incident, SmartMAP will prompt the user to confirm that they'd like to
Clear the current incident before creating a new incident
and highlighting a different set of hydrants and preplans.
The
Reset button within the incident info panel can be selected
to remove highlighting on preplans (as well as any highlighted hydrants) and remove an
incident marker. Note: This can also be accomplished by selecting the incident marker
and then selecting Remove Marker.
