Spatial FX software allows for viewing and interaction with dynamic geospatial and non-geographic images with a full range of built in navigation tools, such as pan, zoom, latitude-longitude displays, popup menus and scalebars. •b. Displays multiple map views on a single page - manipulate each independently, or link multiple views together for a more complete picture. •c. Integrates into new or existing user interfaces - taking on a look and feel that is driven by the operators needs. •d. Incorporates full support of MIL-STD 2525B & 2525C symbols with add-on symbology modules.
