New Map changes - requesting feedback by October 9, 2025

We are asking for feedback on the following new features coming to the "new map" before we release it to Production. Once in Production, each program currently using the "new map" will inherit this version at their next update.

You can test these changes on the AZ Dev site: https://azdev.natureserve.org/content/explore

We are asking for your feedback by Thursday, Oct 9, 2025 if your program is already using the New MapChange details for bold items are below.


  1. Add Layer - users can now add kml, kmz and gdb file types as layers
  2. Define Area of Interest - users can now use a kml, kmz and gml to define an area of interest when creating a project or doing a spatial search for features.
  3. Apply a filter to multiple layers at the same time
  4. Improvement to nested layer visibility


Change details:


>Apply a filter to multiple layers at the same time

Option to "Filter layer" under the Layer menu (...)


The Layer name updates to indicate that it is Filtered.


User can apply a second filter to a different layer and see both filtered layers on the map


User can edit or clear the filter at the individual sublayer.


>Improvement to nested layer visibility

If a user makes visible a nested layer, the layer(s) above it in hierarchy become visible so that the layer displays on the map.
