How can I compare sites side-by-side?
All of the tools associated with 3TIER's Prospecting Tools are "linkable", meaning they can be linked or unlinked with the Map Controller. This functionality allows you to unlink any tool to lock or 'freeze' its data display and then compare its information to other tools that are still linked to the Map Controller.
