We are overhauling the whole TUMONZ interface for version 3 and using the
mapplet navigation style. One thing we have realised as TUMONZ 2 has grown -
it has become difficult to use cause we just added stuff to it all the time.
We are spending a lot of time on getting the GUI right this time so if you
want to be part of the beta program, any feedback you can provide will be
welcome.<BR><BR>Cheers,<BR>Phil.<BR><BR>Phil Scadden wrote:

Okay, I have TUMONZ, mostly for property info. I wonder if you doing
anything on the interface. To a GIS user, the current one isnt very
intuiative. (eg I like to zoom by marquee box around area of interest).
Anyway, GNS also has a number of potential layers that would be interest
to us to provide on 3rd party basis. My speciality would be sunshine hours
(eg total sun, shortest/longest/day sun, etc etc) at DTM resolution.
