Creating a New Map Project

The home page shows a list of all projects with project thumbnail images. Using the projects list and filter option at the top you can filter and search for projects. When you mouse over or touch a project thumbnail you have options to delete or clone the project and to open it for viewing or for editing. You can also create a new project from here.
