• Linked maps can be added which provide corresponding map content from other sources, e.g. Pictometry, Google Street View, and Google Maps.

The PimaMaps new viewer is HTML based, which allows it to be used from all major browsers (including Safari) without need of a Plug-In or Add-on.  The new viewer will detect tablet or handheld devices and format the display accordingly.  Additional enhancements to the new viewer are expected over the coming months.

The legacy Silverlight viewer will remain available for existing maps for the near future.
