Marketwired has recently published an article describing Locus Technologies introduction of the Locus GIS+ mapping platform, a significant upgrade to the current Locus EIM Google Maps-based solution. Locus GIS+ is powered by Esri’s ArcGIS platform and offers a host of advanced features — including enhanced cartography, comprehensive spatial data analysis, and ability to use the customer’s own map through integration with ArcGIS Online and Portal for ArcGIS.

With GIS+, Locus gives users all the tools they need to make professional-looking maps and perform a wide range of data analysis. The new platform is based largely on customer requests and feedback, and it includes an improved user-friendly interface, as well as many new features that are standard in advanced mapping applications. By adding options such as a variety of base maps and hundreds of customizable symbols, advanced editing and label placement, as well as Esri map integration with the customer’s own base layers, Locus GIS+ provides a complete environmental data analysis and mapping solution for Locus EIM users.

Other notable new functionality includes the ability to save multiple query result layers; customizable graduated symbols, color ramps, and histograms to better control how query results display; improved ad hoc location group creation; and more user control over map layer styles and sequencing.
