Tutorial for Offline Map Activity

Getting Started

  1. Close all activities except the Browse activity
  1. Download the Offline Map activity from http://haiti.latest.disaster-tool.appspot.com/OfflineMaps.xo
  1. Click to run OfflineMaps. The icon looks like a steering wheel or a spiderweb (not sure)
  1. Do not move the mouse. The activity will take some time to load. The loading animation of the cursor may stop for several seconds - as long as it continues to move, the activity is working.

Moving

  1. Use the + and - buttons to zoom in and out (magnify, demagnify)
  1. Use the arrow keys to move north, south, east, and west
  1. You can center on a city by typing its name in the Find box on the top of your screen, and pressing enter. Try Lagonav, Port au prince, or Jacmel.
