This guide is intended to introduce you to some of the new and more widely used features in the Newport Beach HTML5 Map Viewer. The look and feel of the map viewer should be familiar to previous versions,
with the advantages being that the new map viewer can be used in any web browser and on any mobile device, tablet, or desktop computer. While the map viewer will work in any browser,
it is highly recommended that you use a web browser other than Internet Explorer such as Chrome, Mozilla, or Safari web browsers. Below is the layout of viewer when it first loads.
1. Click on the "Street Map" icon in the bottom left corner to display other base map options.
2. Select "Aerial Imagery".

Center the map to the area you'd like to view in Google Street View and Pictometry and click on the "Linked Maps" tool. The Google Street View and Pictomety windows will open inside the viewer and are sync'd
with the map, as indicated by the markers which appear on the map. These markers can be dragged around on the map to view a different area.
(Note that this feature works best in a web browser other than IE.)
If you pan the main map window to a different location or perform an "Address Search" you will need to recenter the linked maps so the view in those windows reflects the current location of the map.
