Explore at your leisure it is packed with features.
Switch on layers in the panel on the left. Select tools on right hand side. (this is so like the new OS software).
Map references are given in Long & Lat (be careful!!!!) not usual Lat & Long also Eastings and Northings of French Grid system similar to OS Nat Grid.
The Long & Lat are handy for Sat Navs, but must be entered as Lat & Long following the British convention
