SimplyMap's looking new and pretty!
On Monday a favorite database at UNCG will get a radical update. SimplyMap is changing its interface to be more intuitive. In addition to being more user-friendly it will also have some great ranking features. I encourage you to use the Map Wizard to help guide you through your initial use. I will also be creating some video tutorials showing you how to do common or basic tasks. Please let us know if you have any questions!
