Keep reading to learn more about these great new features and how they will streamline your use of GovClarity™.


Simplified Search


The new search forms in GovClarity™ provide a powerful way to easily constrain or limit your search to a specific area using pre-defined options.

Users can select from four options to constrain searches to: city boundary, a selected feature (e.g. drawn area on the map), or the current map view, or to apply the search as a filter. There's also an option to apply a buffer to any of the location constraints above. This new search form puts all the search options at your fingertips.

Another time saver is that search results now automatically open in the results list below the map.

Simplified Search Forms in GovClarity

You'll also notice in the Fall 2013 release that the Property Filter no longer appears above the map by default. To run a filter, go to the Search icon on the Main Toolbar and select a search form from the pick list, and then select the 'Apply as View Filter' radio button.
