Dive into its capabilities to unlock the full potential of your network.
Accessing the Network map
You can find the Network map located in the navigation bar (1). If you're analysing a particular stop on the ‘Stop details’ page, simply click the map icon 
in the left sidebar panel (2) to jump directly to that stop on the map.
Toolbar
The toolbar provides filtering and configuration options to tailor what you see on the map:
Date Range
Adjust the timeframe for which on-time performance data is displayed. This affects tooltips, the side panel, and map rendering.
Operator and Service Filters
Narrow down what is shown on the map by selecting specific operators or services. This helps reduce visual clutter and allows you to focus your analysis.
Clear Filters
Reset the map to its default state by clearing any active filters.
Layers
Layers enable you to customise your map view by specific information overlays, helping you focus on what matters most. Base layers provide foundational map views, while overlays add specific data on top of base layers.
You can enable one base layer at a time to define the overall appearance of your map, but overlays can be added flexibly to display multiple layers of information simultaneously.
Base layers
Standard view: This is the default basemap offering a clear and simple view of your network.
Satellite view: This is the satellite basemap that provides a realistic, high-detail perspective of the area.
Overlays
Stops Layer: Stops are displayed by default as circles on the map. The level of zoom determines how stops are visualised - zoom out to see them clustered together or zoom in for individual stops with precise details.
How to Enable Layers
Activating and switching layers is quick and easy:
Click on the ‘Layers’ icon in the bottom-right corner of the map.
Select the layer you’d like to enable from the list.
To return to the previous view, simply select the previous view.
When you enable the satellite view, you can gain additional insights such as identifying points of interest, observing land elevation, and locating features like traffic lights.
Stops Layer
The Stops layer is your essential tool for quickly identifying and exploring all stop locations within the network. Enabled by default, it ensures you always have this critical information at your fingertips.
How Stops are visualised
Stops appear as blue circles on the map (1), making them easy to identify.
When zoomed out, stops are grouped into clusters (2), with the number of stops displayed on each one.
As you zoom in, clusters break apart, and individual stop locations become visible with precise details.
