Drop-down tree of layers
- layers are organized in hierarchic (tree) structure the same way they are in ArcGIS – you work with a set as if it were one unit
- layer visibility dependency
- automatic switch on of the parent layers
Managing and integrating projects – toggling between projects
- relationship between projects
- maintaining the scale and zoom
- the tool bar remains after switching
User interface
- measuring distances and areas
- dynamic menu – hot link, selection – the drop-down menu will appear in the window only after a click
- hotlink from the information window - the information can also be hypertext
Print support
- print size selection – A3, A4, A5
- usual orientation - landscape, portrait
- legend, note
Security
- access rights settings for each project, layer, tool, obtaining information, hotlink, query interface
- filtering and masking data support
New map server client – simple client, no frames
- emphases on simple user controls
- arrows around the map
- different map sizes
- switching between layers
- basic support for tools
Note layer 
- editing and viewing points, lines, and polygons, incl. basic attributes
- viewing and accessing the annotation layers of other users is governed by access rights
- dependency on ArcIMS, ArcSDE, OracleSpatial
WMS, WFS web services
- web services security PROXY module
- corrections of erroneous implementations of protocols
Enhanced performance for ArcIMS
Publication of ArcIMS services
- publishes the running ArcIMS service on web
- defines the type of client, available tools, and themes
Administration of metainformation on map servers
- names of services, layers, attributes
- integration of metainformation into project
Search via the attribute table
- simple query - will search all attributes in the selected layer
- attribute query – will search the attribute selected in the layer
- combined – query combined for more attributes, incl. the use of wildcard characters and logic operators
Selection of neighboring objects
- selection of neighboring objects in specific layer
- selected elements are marked in the map
- localization individual elements selected in the table
Buffer
- buffer in defined distance over the selected elements in the layer
- buffer can be used to highlight related elements in other themes and to mark the zones of user’s interest
Selection of elements in active layers
- graphic selection by rectangle
- visual display of the selected elements in the map and the table
