Audio Transcript:
37 00:04:09.700 --> 00:04:13.199 Graham Stoddart-Stones: If they were having trouble, that was good. Good afternoon, Nikki!
38 00:04:13.200 --> 00:04:14.280 Nicky Bourne: Hello!
39 00:04:15.480 --> 00:04:16.519 Stuart Bacon: Good afternoon, Nikki.
40 00:04:16.529 --> 00:04:19.349 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Very nice to see somebody from the east of the country.
41 00:04:21.709 --> 00:04:25.260 Nicky Bourne: I did just send you a quick email as to why I've appeared, but .
42 00:04:25.520 --> 00:04:28.460 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Oh, I'm sorry, I haven't even spotted it yet, I beg your pardon.
43 00:04:28.460 --> 00:04:29.230 Nicky Bourne: That's okay.
44 00:04:29.410 --> 00:04:34.649 Graham Stoddart-Stones: That's right. Well, on the grounds that so far you have the entire audience to yourself.
45 00:04:35.220 --> 00:04:38.999 Graham Stoddart-Stones: By all means, go ahead and hit us with it.
46 00:04:39.610 --> 00:04:45.189 Nicky Bourne: So, I am Clark at Lew's Parish Council, near Maidstone in Kent.
47 00:04:45.290 --> 00:04:51.900 Nicky Bourne: Fairly new to being… well, since January, I've been clerk. I was deputy for about 3 years before. Before that, I was a teacher.
48 00:04:52.050 --> 00:04:56.010 Nicky Bourne: And I've known we've had parish online.
49 00:04:56.470 --> 00:05:13.870 Nicky Bourne: since I've started, and I know the password, and I know the login, and I've very occasionally gone on, looked at it, and thought, this looks so powerful, I have no idea what I'm doing, and then not really had a specific task to get onto your sessions, because I obviously get those emails as well, thinking, I must do it, must do it at 2pm on a Friday, must do it.
50 00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:15.450 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Never quite get around to doing it.
51 00:05:15.940 --> 00:05:24.389 Nicky Bourne: And then I read your one today, and I… and then my colleague, who's sitting in the background here, as an assistant clerk, my deputy clerk now,
52 00:05:24.730 --> 00:05:28.070 Nicky Bourne: We've got a working group that wants to
53 00:05:28.280 --> 00:05:38.279 Nicky Bourne: we have a pavilion in a park, and they want to get some plans of that whole park area. And I said, I'm sure Parish Online could do this for us, or help us find
54 00:05:38.820 --> 00:05:40.320 Nicky Bourne: Plan, basically.
55 00:05:40.480 --> 00:05:57.159 Nicky Bourne: There's trees nearby the building, that sort of thing. So, I logged on, we found a little sort of plan of where it is. I just… I want to know what I can do to use it for that sort of thing, but also we've got cemeteries, we've got… I hear people put bins on, don't they? And they put all their assets on…
56 00:05:57.160 --> 00:05:59.200 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Oh, yeah, absolutely.
57 00:05:59.200 --> 00:06:01.460 Nicky Bourne: Still, we don't… we don't utilize it for…
58 00:06:01.740 --> 00:06:05.860 Nicky Bourne: At all, really, because nobody knows what to do. So this is my starting point.
59 00:06:06.350 --> 00:06:13.579 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Well, you're hardly, the only people like that. There's actually quite a lot of them, I think, so you're in good company. Hi, Andrew!
60 00:06:13.580 --> 00:06:14.400 Andrew Clegg, Martock, Somerset: Hello.
61 00:06:14.790 --> 00:06:19.889 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, if you… are you familiar with sharing your screen in Zoom?
62 00:06:21.570 --> 00:06:28.020 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Because what we'd like to do is drive you around and show you what you can do, and then you can show us what you'd like to do.
63 00:06:28.610 --> 00:06:29.390 Nicky Bourne: Okay.
64 00:06:29.500 --> 00:06:33.650 Nicky Bourne: Let me go back to that. Remind me how I do that, because we don't use Zoom so much for.
65 00:06:33.650 --> 00:06:41.059 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, in the… if you move your mouse to the bottom, yes, there's a share button, then that asks you which window do you want to share.
66 00:06:41.420 --> 00:06:52.139 Graham Stoddart-Stones: which will… you can either take the top left one, and we can go there, or you could open up a browser with Parish Online in it, and select that one, it doesn't matter either way.
67 00:06:52.140 --> 00:06:55.799 Nicky Bourne: That's what I was looking at, basically. Yeah. Have you got a map?
68 00:06:55.830 --> 00:07:02.790 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Well, there's a second button I think you need, which is down to the bottom right, which says share, again.
69 00:07:02.950 --> 00:07:04.549 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Another… a second share.
70 00:07:04.550 --> 00:07:06.739 Nicky Bourne: Paused. Why is it paused?
71 00:07:08.460 --> 00:07:09.210 Nicky Bourne: Shit.
72 00:07:12.460 --> 00:07:15.220 Nicky Bourne: Why is it? It says your sharing is paused.
73 00:07:15.650 --> 00:07:22.340 Graham Stoddart-Stones: You… yes, when you selected the screen you wanted to show us, then there should be another share button in the bottom right corner.
74 00:07:27.590 --> 00:07:28.830 Stuart Bacon: Blue one, I think.
75 00:07:29.950 --> 00:07:32.199 Nicky Bourne: I just did a blue one, why did that not work?
76 00:07:33.600 --> 00:07:35.199 Nicky Bourne: Resume share.
77 00:07:37.050 --> 00:07:38.160 Nicky Bourne: No, yes?
78 00:07:38.710 --> 00:07:39.709 Graham Stoddart-Stones: But not yet.
79 00:07:40.800 --> 00:07:43.140 Graham Stoddart-Stones: You look as if you're halfway there.
80 00:07:43.720 --> 00:07:47.609 Stuart Bacon: Nikki Bourne has started screen sharing, but all we've got's a black screen.
81 00:07:48.440 --> 00:07:49.880 Nicky Bourne: Yeah, actually, so…
82 00:07:50.990 --> 00:08:01.719 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Well, you can come backwards out of it, maybe, Nikki, if you go back to the Zoom screen and see if you can click again on the green arrow at the bottom.
83 00:08:02.720 --> 00:08:10.790 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And then, when you've clicked on the green arrow, it should show you a list of all the, windows you have open.
84 00:08:10.790 --> 00:08:14.069 Nicky Bourne: And you can select whichever one you want to share with us.
85 00:08:14.220 --> 00:08:19.550 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Or if you select the top left one, then we can drive you from there to anywhere.
86 00:08:20.660 --> 00:08:25.309 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Take your pick. And then, having selected the screen you want to share, you have to…
87 00:08:25.890 --> 00:08:28.470 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Done. It's there. You've done it.
88 00:08:28.470 --> 00:08:30.149 Nicky Bourne: So what can you see? The park, or…
89 00:08:30.150 --> 00:08:36.480 Graham Stoddart-Stones: we can see the, the Lewes Parish Pavilion, and the, presumably your recreation ground.
90 00:08:36.480 --> 00:08:37.159 Nicky Bourne: Yes.
91 00:08:38.140 --> 00:08:47.299 Nicky Bourne: So that's as much as I can do on Parish Online, is find our places. And then I see all these different things on the left-hand side, thinking, I'm sure that…
92 00:08:47.420 --> 00:08:49.350 Nicky Bourne: Would give me layers and things like that.
93 00:08:49.540 --> 00:09:07.540 Graham Stoddart-Stones: That's exactly what they are. So, the green layers on the top, any one of them will provide you with the, the base map. In other words, it sets the geography for everything else. And all the layers cover a lot of the country, so in order to see the bit that
94 00:09:07.580 --> 00:09:20.729 Graham Stoddart-Stones: comes to your particular part of the country, you need to have a base map selected, which is automatic. You automatically got the PGSA base map selected, which is the Ordnance Survey digital map of the UK.
95 00:09:20.730 --> 00:09:23.999 Nicky Bourne: Yeah. Which is as good as it gets, they're very fine.
96 00:09:24.500 --> 00:09:36.949 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And then on top of that, you can layer, other labs to show you what you want. So just for today, to show you an example, suppose you needed to know the address of every one of these buildings.
97 00:09:37.620 --> 00:09:42.249 Graham Stoddart-Stones: If you, go into the left-hand column and scroll down a bit.
98 00:09:42.450 --> 00:09:46.530 Graham Stoddart-Stones: You'll find something called Addresses, just sort of, yep, scroll down.
99 00:09:47.790 --> 00:09:48.520 Nicky Bourne: Oh, yeah.
100 00:09:48.520 --> 00:09:52.430 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, if you click on that… Once, just click on it.
101 00:09:53.250 --> 00:09:57.789 Graham Stoddart-Stones: You know, just anywhere in the layer, and then go down to Address Plus Points and click on that.
102 00:09:58.640 --> 00:09:59.940 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And lo and behold.
103 00:09:59.940 --> 00:10:00.489 Nicky Bourne: Oh my goodness.
104 00:10:00.490 --> 00:10:07.559 Graham Stoddart-Stones: you have every address. Now, if you select any point, either a red one or a green one, just with your mouse and click on it.
105 00:10:08.550 --> 00:10:13.039 Graham Stoddart-Stones: The left-hand column will change. Go into Address Plus Points.
106 00:10:14.250 --> 00:10:16.849 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And that's the address of the one you clicked on.
107 00:10:17.120 --> 00:10:32.569 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So you've got useful information, like the postcode, you've got the universal property reference number, the UPRN, which is really useful for emergency services. They all use those when they want to come to a specific building.
108 00:10:32.680 --> 00:10:34.040 Graham Stoddart-Stones: In a hurry.
109 00:10:34.250 --> 00:10:45.279 Graham Stoddart-Stones: But really what I was just showing you is the principle behind how the system works. So you turn on a layer, it automatically adjusts to where you happen to be.
110 00:10:45.420 --> 00:10:49.339 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Or whatever, you've got showing on your screen.
111 00:10:49.480 --> 00:10:54.509 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And then you can click on an item to bring up the data in the left-hand side.
112 00:10:55.040 --> 00:11:01.340 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, once you've had enough of looking at that item, you can click on the X at the top right or the left-hand column.
113 00:11:02.190 --> 00:11:07.360 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And if you see we've had enough of addresses, you can go back down to the address column.
114 00:11:08.230 --> 00:11:15.139 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, go down a little bit further, yeah, it'll be that one. Now, if you just go down below to the next one, postcode areas.
115 00:11:15.380 --> 00:11:19.150 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Then that's very helpful as well, because it tells you everywhere.
116 00:11:19.280 --> 00:11:21.119 Graham Stoddart-Stones: That you need a postcode for.
117 00:11:21.900 --> 00:11:27.049 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, you turn layers on or off, you toggle them by just clicking once, and it changes.
118 00:11:29.180 --> 00:11:34.150 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Just as a… whilst we're here, if you go up to the address plus points and turn it on.
119 00:11:34.150 --> 00:11:35.319 Nicky Bourne: Oh, turn that one back on, sorry.
120 00:11:35.320 --> 00:11:36.390 Graham Stoddart-Stones: That's right, yup.
121 00:11:36.860 --> 00:11:39.500 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And then click on the cogwheel.
122 00:11:41.920 --> 00:11:45.969 Graham Stoddart-Stones: and you get another menu, and if you go into what's called Table View.
123 00:11:47.860 --> 00:11:56.250 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Then all the data that's showing on your map is available to be exported to a spreadsheet, so it's there in spreadsheet mode.
124 00:11:56.750 --> 00:11:58.660 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And you can just, as.
125 00:11:58.660 --> 00:12:00.050 Nicky Bourne: No Wakefield, though.
126 00:12:00.640 --> 00:12:03.140 Nicky Bourne: Well, oh, it covers the whole country, you've got everywhere.
127 00:12:03.150 --> 00:12:15.000 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Oh, okay. So you can put a filter on that just brings it down to… so if you say that the… click on the column button, the little arrow there, good, and choose,
128 00:12:15.630 --> 00:12:19.940 Graham Stoddart-Stones: If you scroll down a bit, does it mention town or something? Can't remember.
129 00:12:20.240 --> 00:12:22.589 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Postcode. Yeah, you've got town name.
130 00:12:22.590 --> 00:12:23.110 Stuart Bacon: Oh.
131 00:12:23.110 --> 00:12:28.290 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So if you type in your name in the contain… in the right-hand value column, that one there.
132 00:12:32.440 --> 00:12:37.929 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And you see it's automatically reduced it, it's just, filtering out all the other stuff.
133 00:12:37.960 --> 00:12:52.730 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And it'll eventually come up with all the addresses of every house in Maidstone. But the point of this being is just that you can export from there straight into a spreadsheet, so that it's a way of getting data out of Parish Online in a convenient form.
134 00:12:53.330 --> 00:12:53.990 Nicky Bourne: Oh, wow.
135 00:12:53.990 --> 00:12:57.340 Graham Stoddart-Stones: I just mentioned that in passing, it's got nothing to do with today.
136 00:12:57.340 --> 00:13:03.570 Nicky Bourne: No, but that actually… we've often said about just getting an up-to-date list of the houses within the parish.
137 00:13:03.570 --> 00:13:05.549 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Okay, well, that's easily done.
138 00:13:05.550 --> 00:13:06.140 Nicky Bourne: Yeah.
139 00:13:06.140 --> 00:13:13.479 Graham Stoddart-Stones: If you click on the X there, you shut it down, and go back to the map. Turn off the map, good, yup, the layer.
140 00:13:14.130 --> 00:13:18.950 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Now, what you want to do, probably, is to create your own layer.
141 00:13:19.370 --> 00:13:25.530 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And that's… can only be done in what's known as the parish layers, so if you go up to the top brown one.
142 00:13:26.500 --> 00:13:28.480 Graham Stoddart-Stones: That's called parish layers.
143 00:13:28.660 --> 00:13:37.780 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And somebody, somewhere, sometime, has created road drains, but that's the only stuff that's ever been done on your behalf in your village.
144 00:13:38.060 --> 00:13:39.360 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Or your parish.
145 00:13:40.230 --> 00:13:44.060 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, if you were to say.
146 00:13:44.750 --> 00:13:47.590 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Did you want to sort of bring the trees and things in?
147 00:13:47.770 --> 00:13:48.470 Nicky Bourne: Oh, yeah.
148 00:13:48.470 --> 00:13:54.430 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, if you go up to where it says Aerial Photography, which is the third green one up.
149 00:13:55.930 --> 00:13:59.330 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And click on the first one, the Aerial Photography Latest.
150 00:13:59.700 --> 00:14:12.890 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Now, it's downloading data from the internet, and you've now got two layers showing at once. You've got the underlying map, which gives you the names like Lou's Parish Pavilion, and The Path, and that sort of thing.
151 00:14:13.190 --> 00:14:22.269 Graham Stoddart-Stones: But you've also got the aerial photography, so the two are combining, and once you find out where you are from the geography, it helps to turn off
152 00:14:22.500 --> 00:14:29.750 Graham Stoddart-Stones: the underlying map layer, so you can just see the photographs. So if you go up to your top layer, yeah, go up…
153 00:14:30.380 --> 00:14:35.520 Graham Stoddart-Stones: and go into Ordnance Survey, and click… whoops, just click on the cogwheel.
154 00:14:36.130 --> 00:14:39.400 Graham Stoddart-Stones: No, the tick… sorry, the tick mark, Hope.
155 00:14:39.810 --> 00:14:44.139 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Now you can turn that down to zero, just slide it to your left.
156 00:14:44.530 --> 00:14:49.899 Graham Stoddart-Stones: There you go. And now you've got 100% photography. So you mentioned trees.
157 00:14:49.900 --> 00:14:50.600 Nicky Bourne: Please, yeah.
158 00:14:50.600 --> 00:14:58.240 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yeah, so if you zoom in a bit, there you go, and let the system catch up with you, because this is all coming down to you from the internet.
159 00:14:58.520 --> 00:15:00.870 Graham Stoddart-Stones: But you can see your trees there.
160 00:15:00.970 --> 00:15:03.779 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And if you wanted to record them, we could…
161 00:15:03.880 --> 00:15:06.100 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Turn on a point layer.
162 00:15:06.510 --> 00:15:09.220 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And just mark each tree as a point.
163 00:15:09.750 --> 00:15:21.809 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And then you could, you could use a little, icon symbol of a tree to show you, that, you know, there are trees there, and you could show you what different types they are, with different colors, for different types, all that sort of thing.
164 00:15:22.250 --> 00:15:23.030 Nicky Bourne: Wow.
165 00:15:23.030 --> 00:15:28.400 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, when you mentioned that the trees are there, with the pavilion,
166 00:15:28.820 --> 00:15:30.739 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Was there a need for that?
167 00:15:30.840 --> 00:15:38.239 Nicky Bourne: Yeah, so basically, some people are talking about extending out that area, and they want to know where the first tree…
168 00:15:38.880 --> 00:15:42.480 Nicky Bourne: Obviously, it's controversial, because they might have to fed a tree.
169 00:15:42.480 --> 00:15:47.559 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yeah, absolutely. Well, shall we just do that in such a way that you can add the trees to the map?
170 00:15:47.720 --> 00:15:48.419 Nicky Bourne: Okay, brilliant.
171 00:15:48.750 --> 00:15:53.579 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, if you go down to your parish layers, the first brown one.
172 00:15:56.660 --> 00:15:57.460 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yep.
173 00:15:57.870 --> 00:16:16.329 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And we're just going to be there for the moment. What we're going to do now is a two-step process. The first step is to create a layer that will allow you to add points to the map, because trees tend to be points. Although yours are so large, you could almost make them polygons, but I think we'll make them a point for the moment.
174 00:16:16.390 --> 00:16:24.900 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, the first thing to do is to create a layer, and then you… second step, you add features, which is, i.e. data, to the layer.
175 00:16:25.010 --> 00:16:26.810 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, to create the…
176 00:16:26.810 --> 00:16:27.370 Nicky Bourne: S.
177 00:16:27.660 --> 00:16:27.980 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Right?
178 00:16:27.980 --> 00:16:29.709 Nicky Bourne: if I was to put our bins and everything.
179 00:16:29.710 --> 00:16:42.589 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yeah, well, the bins are already… well, they should be there if you're lucky, depending on how good Kent County Council is. We'll talk about that in a second. Let's just create a layer for you. So if you go up to the top menu, or on the top black line…
180 00:16:42.840 --> 00:16:44.570 Graham Stoddart-Stones: There's something called Create.
181 00:16:45.120 --> 00:16:45.730 Nicky Bourne: Oh, sorry.
182 00:16:45.730 --> 00:16:48.379 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Go up, up a layer, up one line.
183 00:16:48.940 --> 00:16:49.599 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Other lines?
184 00:16:49.600 --> 00:16:49.950 Nicky Bourne: What this?
185 00:16:49.950 --> 00:16:50.479 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Maybe, yeah, yeah.
186 00:16:50.480 --> 00:16:51.550 Nicky Bourne: Yes, there, sorry.
187 00:16:51.550 --> 00:16:52.840 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yep, that's right.
188 00:16:53.510 --> 00:16:56.089 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And you're gonna create a new layer.
189 00:16:57.680 --> 00:17:01.850 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And it's asking you for a name, so you can just say, .
190 00:17:02.410 --> 00:17:02.790 Stuart Bacon: Pretty useful.
191 00:17:02.790 --> 00:17:08.400 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Nikki's Point Layer, if you like, just for the moment. Or you can call it trees, whatever you want, yup.
192 00:17:08.930 --> 00:17:10.710 Nicky Bourne: I think it's pointless, just call it that.
193 00:17:11.420 --> 00:17:19.349 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And the reason we say point layer is because we're going to be doing points. And if you go into there, the next section, next is good.
194 00:17:19.740 --> 00:17:27.769 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Then it asks you for the geometry type, and you can create 3 types of layer. You can have points, you can have lines, or you can have polygons.
195 00:17:28.190 --> 00:17:30.720 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, for the moment, go for point.
196 00:17:31.570 --> 00:17:40.070 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And then, you don't have to put a description here, but it's very helpful to remind you in 6 months' time when you look at this and you think, what the heck did I create that for?
197 00:17:40.070 --> 00:17:42.390 Nicky Bourne: So you can just type something in here that.
198 00:17:42.390 --> 00:17:47.879 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Nikki's training layer, To understand how it works, or something.
199 00:17:50.370 --> 00:17:53.320 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Just something to remind you when you come back in a year's time.
200 00:17:53.320 --> 00:17:55.109 Nicky Bourne: Or you're handing it over to your… No, no, no, next week.
201 00:17:55.110 --> 00:18:07.990 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Now, in this layer, this is, you need to have at least one column of data before you can add anything, and you add a column by clicking on the plus sign.
202 00:18:08.620 --> 00:18:09.819 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yep.
203 00:18:10.100 --> 00:18:16.529 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And it'll automatically call it a name for you. So, just for today, let's leave it as a name.
204 00:18:17.130 --> 00:18:20.790 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And we'll create a second column, so add on the plus again.
205 00:18:21.120 --> 00:18:36.280 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And it also calls it name, but you now need to go and change that. And if you just change it, say, to something like Status, just call it S-T-A-T-A-ATUS, yeah, that'll be fine. And that's enough in the moment, unless you know you want to capture anything else about the trees.
206 00:18:36.280 --> 00:18:37.490 Nicky Bourne: No, that's fine.
207 00:18:37.490 --> 00:18:39.250 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Okay, so click on Finish.
208 00:18:42.710 --> 00:18:49.050 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And it looks as if absolutely nothing has happened. But if you now go down to your parish layer.
209 00:18:49.670 --> 00:18:52.450 Graham Stoddart-Stones: You'll find that it's added your point layer to it.
210 00:18:55.850 --> 00:18:57.600 Stuart Bacon: Since 29…
211 00:18:58.030 --> 00:19:06.880 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, if you now go onto the cogwheel, Nikki, at the end, and just click on that, and add a feature, we're now going to add the trees, alright?
212 00:19:08.180 --> 00:19:09.110 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So…
213 00:19:09.690 --> 00:19:14.509 Graham Stoddart-Stones: It's up to you to come up with a name, what you call them, Tree 1, Tree 2, or whatever, or…
214 00:19:14.770 --> 00:19:17.510 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Dark green, light green, middle green.
215 00:19:18.280 --> 00:19:22.380 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So you click on the middle of the tree, which is you've done now, just click once.
216 00:19:23.220 --> 00:19:26.100 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Now move over to the name and fill in the name.
217 00:19:26.350 --> 00:19:28.659 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Just call it Tree 1, for argument's sake.
218 00:19:30.690 --> 00:19:33.350 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And that'll do, and just click on Save.
219 00:19:34.240 --> 00:19:34.890 Nicky Bourne: Save.
220 00:19:34.890 --> 00:19:35.470 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yep.
221 00:19:36.210 --> 00:19:39.849 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Now, you'll see that little blue point turns to a red one.
222 00:19:40.530 --> 00:19:49.829 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And if you, well, the system expects you to add another layer now, another feature, so just go to the next tree, there you go, stick it in the middle of the crown, good.
223 00:19:50.160 --> 00:19:51.999 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And call it tree 2.
224 00:19:54.320 --> 00:20:12.090 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And so forth and so on. You can do this to your heart's content. So, what we're going to do now is to show you how to change them. Suppose you didn't think that they were exactly in the center of the tree, or you wanted to change the name. You can click on… sorry, close the left-hand column down by clicking on the X.
225 00:20:13.180 --> 00:20:15.719 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And now click on either of the red dots.
226 00:20:16.040 --> 00:20:34.949 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And you will bring up the information for that record. And this is where you could change it if you wanted to. You could move the tree around, or the dot around, or you could change the name, or you could add more information. And in particular, if you look in the left-hand column about halfway down, there's a plus sign where it says Attachments.
227 00:20:35.350 --> 00:20:48.059 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And you can add anything that you wish to this record. So if you've got a photograph of the tree, or if you've got a tree report from a tree surgeon or something, you could add this in here so they stay with that record forever.
228 00:20:48.850 --> 00:20:49.840 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Okay?
229 00:20:51.510 --> 00:20:53.899 Nicky Bourne: put all the information from the tree port onto…
230 00:20:55.580 --> 00:21:07.819 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, let's now say that you've got these two dots on your map, but it would make a lot more sense if the dots were actually tree icons, because then you could see that they were trees without any further check.
231 00:21:07.820 --> 00:21:10.580 Nicky Bourne: So if you close down the left-hand layer.
232 00:21:12.120 --> 00:21:14.669 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And go down to your parish layer again.
233 00:21:15.270 --> 00:21:16.670 Graham Stoddart-Stones: First round one.
234 00:21:17.350 --> 00:21:21.309 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And, yep, click on the cogwheel.
235 00:21:22.020 --> 00:21:24.259 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And you're now going down to Style.
236 00:21:27.890 --> 00:21:42.090 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And this is where you can put labels on things, this is where you can change colors and things. So, if just, for instance, for today, let's say you wanted to add labels to the tree, so you can click on the label column on the left-hand side.
237 00:21:42.470 --> 00:21:47.640 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yep, click on the little arrow, and it's the name that you're going to put up, so just click on name.
238 00:21:48.780 --> 00:21:56.690 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Perfect. Notice in the right-hand column, the preview shows you exactly what you've done, and how it's going to show up.
239 00:21:56.800 --> 00:22:05.359 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Now, instead of that red dot, we want a tree, so if you go into the third column where it says icon, and click on Shapes.
240 00:22:06.200 --> 00:22:10.349 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And… Go for… go for graphical icon instead.
241 00:22:10.350 --> 00:22:10.900 Nicky Bourne: Sorry.
242 00:22:11.750 --> 00:22:16.780 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And then go into the three dots, And type in tree.
243 00:22:17.040 --> 00:22:19.119 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Up in the search box, yeah.
244 00:22:20.050 --> 00:22:26.870 Graham Stoddart-Stones: There you go. And now you've got all sorts of trees to choose from. So you could have a red one, a green one, a brown one, a black one, whatever.
245 00:22:29.560 --> 00:22:32.549 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So that's good. And save that, yup.
246 00:22:33.050 --> 00:22:38.440 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And you might want to change the size of it, so make it bigger by making it 20 or something.
247 00:22:39.250 --> 00:22:41.240 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Just for argument, yeah, exactly, just to…
248 00:22:41.610 --> 00:22:47.349 Graham Stoddart-Stones: There you go. That looks good. That's good. Now save it, and go back and have a look what it looks like on the map.
249 00:22:50.960 --> 00:22:52.550 Nicky Bourne: I need to call it Tree 1. Oh, no, it's called…
250 00:22:52.550 --> 00:22:57.709 Graham Stoddart-Stones: only two trees have shown up. So, if you were now to turn off the photography.
251 00:22:58.820 --> 00:23:01.080 Graham Stoddart-Stones: You go back to being your map.
252 00:23:02.550 --> 00:23:03.400 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Good.
253 00:23:03.660 --> 00:23:13.210 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And you probably need to go back up to the green one that's got the map data, and turn it back… click on the plus sign, sorry, the tick sign, click on the tick.
254 00:23:13.960 --> 00:23:18.290 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And just increase the transparent… oh, you've turned it off, click it back on.
255 00:23:18.290 --> 00:23:18.730 Nicky Bourne: agree.
256 00:23:18.730 --> 00:23:25.930 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And click on the transparency, and there we go, that's right, yep. Good. So now you can see your trees, tree 1 and tree 2.
257 00:23:27.500 --> 00:23:28.400 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And…
258 00:23:29.250 --> 00:23:36.950 Graham Stoddart-Stones: That shows you how you could have done, or how you can use the mapping to get your trees onto the map itself.
259 00:23:37.640 --> 00:23:38.540 Nicky Bourne: Excellent.
260 00:23:38.720 --> 00:23:48.290 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Now, I didn't know if there are other things that you want to do with that area. Are you going to build a new building? Are you going to add a children's playground, or you've got a play area there?
261 00:23:49.360 --> 00:23:59.689 Graham Stoddart-Stones: But in the play area, you could, for instance, add, each of the play, toys you've got there. So if there's a slide, or there's swings, or there's nodding.
262 00:23:59.690 --> 00:24:03.940 Nicky Bourne: Yeah, so when the picture's up, you can see that the staff.
263 00:24:03.940 --> 00:24:05.999 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yes, you can do that from the photography.
264 00:24:06.210 --> 00:24:07.810 Nicky Bourne: Put it over the top of the…
265 00:24:08.840 --> 00:24:11.690 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So would that be aerial photography first? Yeah.
266 00:24:13.600 --> 00:24:15.780 Nicky Bourne: Yeah, so that… you can see on that.
267 00:24:16.030 --> 00:24:16.840 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yes.
268 00:24:16.840 --> 00:24:17.839 Nicky Bourne: fancy a bit.
269 00:24:19.160 --> 00:24:20.440 Nicky Bourne: Oh no, oh my god.
270 00:24:20.440 --> 00:24:22.509 Graham Stoddart-Stones: That's right, turn it down to zero.
271 00:24:23.850 --> 00:24:28.519 Graham Stoddart-Stones: There you go. Oh, right, you've got a carousel, or a roundabout, whatever you call it.
272 00:24:28.520 --> 00:24:29.170 Nicky Bourne: Yeah.
273 00:24:29.170 --> 00:24:33.530 Graham Stoddart-Stones: and a slide and swings, presumably. It's a remarkably…
274 00:24:34.450 --> 00:24:38.619 Graham Stoddart-Stones: poor photograph. Usually the photographs are brilliant, but yours is just…
275 00:24:38.910 --> 00:24:44.910 Graham Stoddart-Stones: It was a bit of a hazy day, I guess. If you zoom in, you tend to be able to see more details.
276 00:24:45.900 --> 00:24:50.890 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, if you have a mouse with a wheel on it, just rotating the wheel will do the zooming for you.
277 00:24:50.890 --> 00:24:53.200 Nicky Bourne: Oh, yeah, I'm on a laptop.
278 00:24:53.740 --> 00:25:00.179 Graham Stoddart-Stones: but… So, yeah, you got a roundabout, and… are they swings?
279 00:25:00.860 --> 00:25:04.309 Graham Stoddart-Stones: The shelter, right. Oh, yes, like, they play Fort or something.
280 00:25:04.590 --> 00:25:07.700 Nicky Bourne: Well, it's just one the kids hang out in. That's a bin.
281 00:25:07.700 --> 00:25:08.460 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Right.
282 00:25:08.870 --> 00:25:18.919 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, you could, if you wanted to, name these or mark them in some way, and also you could add them to your asset register, which is built into Parish Online.
283 00:25:19.080 --> 00:25:22.930 Nicky Bourne: Oh, so how would I do that? Let's… can we start that process?
284 00:25:23.400 --> 00:25:31.590 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yes, so if you, go down further to your brown layers, the second brown layer is called Assets and Maintenance.
285 00:25:33.480 --> 00:25:39.309 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So if you turn that on, now you can do a search for… if you go down to Play Area, or something like that.
286 00:25:41.560 --> 00:25:43.270 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Putting your own equipment, there you go.
287 00:25:43.590 --> 00:25:45.899 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And now you wanted to add a feature.
288 00:25:47.840 --> 00:25:51.019 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, just click on the cogwheel. Yep, sorry, you're quite right.
289 00:25:52.060 --> 00:25:53.360 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Add a feature.
290 00:25:54.390 --> 00:25:59.269 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And the first thing it asks you is, what is the category? If you click on the red button.
291 00:26:00.340 --> 00:26:10.029 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Sorry, the red dot window, yes, it'll tell you, sort of, what they are, and you can scroll down and see if there's anything there that you want to… yeah, standard playground equipment is fine.
292 00:26:10.350 --> 00:26:11.749 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, give it a name.
293 00:26:12.280 --> 00:26:14.190 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Whichever one you're going to be doing.
294 00:26:15.470 --> 00:26:16.740 Nicky Bourne: One piece of equipment.
295 00:26:16.740 --> 00:26:22.770 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yeah, a roundabout, or a slide, or whatever it happens to be, give it a… whatever it does.
296 00:26:23.020 --> 00:26:27.860 Nicky Bourne: go for the… what's that thing called, that big swing? Cradles… Oh yeah, rotator.
297 00:26:30.040 --> 00:26:31.540 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Perfect, okay.
298 00:26:32.720 --> 00:26:33.910 Nicky Bourne: It's a star-shaped thing.
299 00:26:33.910 --> 00:26:34.840 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yep, yep.
300 00:26:34.940 --> 00:26:40.450 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So… Yup, by all means, say, what it is.
301 00:26:40.450 --> 00:26:43.900 Nicky Bourne: We call this the youth play area, and the other one's the toddler play area.
302 00:26:43.900 --> 00:26:44.330 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Okay.
303 00:26:44.720 --> 00:26:46.279 Nicky Bourne: Would that be the description?
304 00:26:46.280 --> 00:26:47.890 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Absolutely, yep.
305 00:26:50.910 --> 00:27:02.999 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Couldn't be better, then these details you can come back and fill in later, the cost and the value and all the rest of it. But for right now, you want to notice that the save button at the bottom is greyed out.
306 00:27:03.000 --> 00:27:03.530 Nicky Bourne: Yeah.
307 00:27:03.530 --> 00:27:12.600 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And that means that it's wanting you to do something, and what you have to do is to select the item on the map that you're actually talking about. So, yeah, exactly, just click on that.
308 00:27:13.060 --> 00:27:14.930 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Now you can click on Save.
309 00:27:18.170 --> 00:27:26.319 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And now you can… if you close down that column again, I mean, it's assuming you want to add more items, but I just want to show you styling.
310 00:27:26.440 --> 00:27:29.760 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So if you now go back down to… oh, you can't change style.
311 00:27:29.760 --> 00:27:30.940 Stuart Bacon: Can't show soiling.
312 00:27:30.940 --> 00:27:32.969 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Sorry, I make your pardon.
313 00:27:33.340 --> 00:27:39.540 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Does it automatically come up with an icon? It probably does, doesn't it?
314 00:27:39.540 --> 00:27:40.930 Nicky Bourne: Indigo. No.
315 00:27:41.270 --> 00:27:50.560 Stuart Bacon: If you move your map, and just move the thing off the screen, so the play equipment that you've just done, drag that off the screen, and then bring it back again.
316 00:27:50.560 --> 00:27:53.610 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Oh, there it is, there's the icon, it's shown up. There you go.
317 00:27:53.960 --> 00:27:56.959 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So you've got a little playground equipment icon now.
318 00:27:57.130 --> 00:27:57.500 Nicky Bourne: Yeah.
319 00:27:57.500 --> 00:28:04.520 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, if you were to turn the photography down, for instance, then you'd still be able to see that there is a gizmo there.
320 00:28:06.580 --> 00:28:11.429 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yeah, it's quicker just to turn it off, actually, just toggle anywhere other than the cogwheel.
321 00:28:13.100 --> 00:28:13.460 Nicky Bourne: Huh?
322 00:28:13.460 --> 00:28:14.680 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Just… there you go.
323 00:28:14.680 --> 00:28:15.360 Nicky Bourne: Oh, yeah.
324 00:28:15.540 --> 00:28:20.159 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And then, you need to turn up the underlying map on the top one.
325 00:28:20.540 --> 00:28:21.239 Nicky Bourne: Top one.
326 00:28:21.240 --> 00:28:23.029 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yup. There you go, yep.
327 00:28:23.210 --> 00:28:24.839 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Take it up to about 60.
328 00:28:25.680 --> 00:28:26.300 Graham Stoddart-Stones: That's good.
329 00:28:26.300 --> 00:28:27.039 Nicky Bourne: Have I done?
330 00:28:27.040 --> 00:28:27.580 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yep.
331 00:28:27.860 --> 00:28:35.300 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And so now you can see, if you click on the, the play toy, that one, yep.
332 00:28:36.100 --> 00:28:44.100 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Then that brings your record up, and you can start making changes. To go into edit mode, to make changes, you need to click on the little pencil in the top left.
333 00:28:45.240 --> 00:28:49.280 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And whilst you're there, you can see that you can also delete it if you wanted to.
334 00:28:49.280 --> 00:28:49.890 Nicky Bourne: Yeah.
335 00:28:49.890 --> 00:28:52.670 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, this is how you add things, how you delete things.
336 00:28:53.720 --> 00:29:01.930 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And if you ever needed… if you got your asset register out and wanted to start putting in the numbers here, like when you bought it and how much it cost and those.
337 00:29:01.930 --> 00:29:02.650 Nicky Bourne: Yeah.
338 00:29:02.880 --> 00:29:04.760 Nicky Bourne: Last inspection…
339 00:29:04.760 --> 00:29:08.409 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And it, or probably, in particular, the insured value, but yes.
340 00:29:08.910 --> 00:29:09.300 Nicky Bourne: Yeah, true.
341 00:29:09.300 --> 00:29:15.139 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, those sorts of things are where you start adding your assets into Parish Online.
342 00:29:15.710 --> 00:29:18.210 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Which can be very, very useful.
343 00:29:18.540 --> 00:29:19.840 Nicky Bourne: Can I ask a question?
344 00:29:19.840 --> 00:29:20.640 Graham Stoddart-Stones: beat. They see what you'.
345 00:29:20.640 --> 00:29:26.949 Nicky Bourne: do all the bits of play area, and then they all get inspected on the same day. Do you have to individually go into them to change.
346 00:29:27.330 --> 00:29:31.869 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Well, that's one of the advantages of that table view that we showed you.
347 00:29:31.870 --> 00:29:32.390 Nicky Bourne: Right.
348 00:29:32.390 --> 00:29:45.179 Graham Stoddart-Stones: is you've got all the records brought up in front of you, and you can change each one straight away. Unfortunately, you can't do a bulk change, but you can change them much more quickly than going in and out of the contacts on the map.
349 00:29:45.770 --> 00:29:48.440 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So you just make the changes in the table view.
350 00:29:48.670 --> 00:29:49.280 Nicky Bourne: Yeah.
351 00:29:49.280 --> 00:29:53.120 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And it's very quick and very easy. Works well.
352 00:29:53.870 --> 00:29:58.890 Stuart Bacon: For practicality side of sakes, the inspection thing…
353 00:29:59.120 --> 00:30:06.580 Stuart Bacon: I wouldn't do it as your weekly inspection, it's more for your quarterly or annual inspections to record the data.
354 00:30:06.970 --> 00:30:07.610 Nicky Bourne: Yeah.
355 00:30:09.920 --> 00:30:14.700 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, if it's, useful to you, Nikki, there are a series of
356 00:30:15.070 --> 00:30:22.890 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Training classes available that, are open to anybody to, come along for a tiny fee.
357 00:30:23.030 --> 00:30:24.120 Nicky Bourne: Okay.
358 00:30:24.350 --> 00:30:27.530 Graham Stoddart-Stones: If you like, I'll put the details of that in the chat.
359 00:30:28.120 --> 00:30:28.980 Nicky Bourne: Excellent.
360 00:30:30.150 --> 00:30:30.839 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Just so that you know.
361 00:30:30.840 --> 00:30:35.399 Nicky Bourne: Yeah, I just need… To get me on here, to realize
362 00:30:35.850 --> 00:30:38.720 Nicky Bourne: The potential, really, and to make a start, because…
363 00:30:39.050 --> 00:30:43.530 Nicky Bourne: So often, we've talked about it, and not quite got there.
364 00:30:43.940 --> 00:30:44.500 Stuart Bacon: Yeah.
365 00:30:45.040 --> 00:30:47.990 Stuart Bacon: One of the other useful tools on there
366 00:30:48.140 --> 00:30:51.690 Stuart Bacon: If you click on the help at the top.
367 00:30:52.730 --> 00:30:53.410 Nicky Bourne: Yes.
368 00:30:54.900 --> 00:30:57.720 Stuart Bacon: And the knowledge base.
369 00:31:02.180 --> 00:31:08.859 Stuart Bacon: There's a lot of information in there. If you were wanting to,
370 00:31:09.760 --> 00:31:12.340 Stuart Bacon: Let's narrow it down to parish online mapping.
371 00:31:12.800 --> 00:31:18.169 Stuart Bacon: And click on the heading of Parish Online Mapping.
372 00:31:20.820 --> 00:31:36.880 Stuart Bacon: And then you've got a lot of detail in there about how to do, whatever you want. So if you've got, an issue about wanting how to create a new layer or whatever, there's lots of, details there. You can…
373 00:31:37.150 --> 00:31:43.720 Stuart Bacon: Type in the search articles at the top for creating layers if you wanted, or, how to…
374 00:31:44.050 --> 00:31:46.480 Stuart Bacon: Sort of set the styling for a layer.
375 00:31:46.590 --> 00:31:48.659 Stuart Bacon: That, that's all…
376 00:31:48.880 --> 00:31:59.129 Stuart Bacon: in there, there are videos there to support what you're doing, and guide you through as well. Only short videos, they're not, anything too lengthy.
377 00:31:59.130 --> 00:32:04.799 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yeah, if you select any one of those points, Nicky, doesn't matter which one, or you just try typing…
378 00:32:05.480 --> 00:32:06.430 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yeah.
379 00:32:06.870 --> 00:32:23.640 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, what you tend to get usually, then, is a video that's about 30 or 40 seconds, it just shows you how to do it, and then underneath there will be a step-by-step list of steps to take to do something, so that's not the best example, is it?
380 00:32:23.640 --> 00:32:24.140 Nicky Bourne: Pick a good one.
381 00:32:24.140 --> 00:32:29.709 Graham Stoddart-Stones: If you go back up to the search button at the top, the wipes, the magnifying glass.
382 00:32:30.470 --> 00:32:35.470 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yeah, just type in, create a layer, or add a feature, or something like that.
383 00:32:39.010 --> 00:32:41.829 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yup. And now, if you go into creating…
384 00:32:41.830 --> 00:32:42.260 Stuart Bacon: outland.
385 00:32:42.260 --> 00:32:44.790 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yes, go to the first one, Creating Map Layers.
386 00:32:46.130 --> 00:32:51.860 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Now you see that you get, you get the step-by-step.
387 00:32:52.040 --> 00:32:53.330 Graham Stoddart-Stones: instruction.
388 00:32:54.300 --> 00:33:01.290 Graham Stoddart-Stones: There, and a video. So, if for some reason you're not getting the videos, and if you've got a blocker on of some sort, yes.
389 00:33:01.770 --> 00:33:03.869 Graham Stoddart-Stones: You've got a blocker on your browser.
390 00:33:04.350 --> 00:33:06.469 Nicky Bourne: Oh, okay, so I might need to speak to…
391 00:33:06.470 --> 00:33:12.819 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yeah, you just need to talk to IT, or just clear, the parish online,
392 00:33:14.420 --> 00:33:28.760 Graham Stoddart-Stones: URL for this, but… so, most articles have a video that shows you how to do it, which sort of gives you the overall, overview of what you're doing, and then the step-by-step
393 00:33:28.940 --> 00:33:35.090 Graham Stoddart-Stones: instructions underneath are literally just what you have to do one by one. Very helpful.
394 00:33:38.020 --> 00:33:39.220 Nicky Bourne: Don't do that.
395 00:33:39.220 --> 00:33:49.369 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, when we're sort of introducing people to Parish Online like this, then we usually touch on getting data from the system out to people who want it?
396 00:33:50.040 --> 00:34:05.029 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, we mentioned the table view, which is how you can create a spreadsheet. So, for instance, if you were putting in mowing contracts, then you could send every contractor a list of the bits he's going to have to do, and the details of the areas.
397 00:34:05.410 --> 00:34:18.130 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So if your mowing contract is for so many square meters, so many pounds per square meter, then you need to know how many square meters you're asking them to do, and Parish Online will automatically tell you the square meterage that you've selected.
398 00:34:18.620 --> 00:34:19.510 Nicky Bourne: Wow.
399 00:34:19.510 --> 00:34:27.879 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So if you were to go back, on your browser, take the… in the top left, go back to the left browser for Parish Online.
400 00:34:28.540 --> 00:34:29.260 Nicky Bourne: Where's that going?
401 00:34:29.260 --> 00:34:30.459 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Go way out the top.
402 00:34:30.989 --> 00:34:31.589 Nicky Bourne: Oh.
403 00:34:32.460 --> 00:34:37.039 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Further up, further up, further up, so go to the left, there we go, yeah.
404 00:34:37.040 --> 00:34:37.760 Nicky Bourne: Sorry.
405 00:34:37.969 --> 00:34:48.769 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, if you were now to, if we'd have clicked on an area, so let's just click a little area for you. If you go up to Create again.
406 00:34:50.139 --> 00:34:53.229 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And you want to create a new layer.
407 00:34:53.439 --> 00:34:55.689 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And this is Nikki's polygon layer.
408 00:35:02.379 --> 00:35:03.569 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And next.
409 00:35:04.069 --> 00:35:06.779 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And select Pull Up Polygon Geometry.
410 00:35:08.689 --> 00:35:09.439 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yep.
411 00:35:10.069 --> 00:35:13.699 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And just… Vicki's training there.
412 00:35:14.119 --> 00:35:19.059 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Something like that, just… So you know it's something you can get rid of later.
413 00:35:21.019 --> 00:35:21.769 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yep.
414 00:35:22.059 --> 00:35:26.099 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And add at least one item. Have a name is fine.
415 00:35:26.329 --> 00:35:28.879 Graham Stoddart-Stones: That's all you need, just click on Finish.
416 00:35:31.979 --> 00:35:35.809 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And now, if you go back to the parish layers, the top brown one.
417 00:35:37.499 --> 00:35:43.399 Graham Stoddart-Stones: You'll see your polygon there. So you turn that on. Now you're going to add a feature by clicking on the cogwheel.
418 00:35:45.999 --> 00:35:55.969 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And let's just add a new pavilion, Nikki. So, go to somewhere and click once, and now… whoops… just click once, and then drag the mouse.
419 00:35:56.499 --> 00:35:59.559 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Just click it, and pull.
420 00:36:02.330 --> 00:36:02.809 Nicky Bourne: I see.
421 00:36:02.810 --> 00:36:08.949 Graham Stoddart-Stones: There you go, yup. So, it'll go in a straight line until you click again, then you can change direction.
422 00:36:09.410 --> 00:36:10.050 Nicky Bourne: Okay.
423 00:36:10.050 --> 00:36:15.269 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So click it and change direction… there we go, yeah. This is going to be a wonderfully shaped building.
424 00:36:16.050 --> 00:36:17.400 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Okay, good.
425 00:36:17.520 --> 00:36:20.160 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And then when you get back to the starting point.
426 00:36:20.460 --> 00:36:28.900 Graham Stoddart-Stones: You can do a double-click, just to save it. Double-click to say you finished. That'll do. And now save, bottom left.
427 00:36:29.720 --> 00:36:32.080 Nicky Bourne: There's your new pavilion in London.
428 00:36:32.080 --> 00:36:35.590 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, close down the left-hand layer with the X at the top.
429 00:36:36.490 --> 00:36:38.660 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And now click once on your…
430 00:36:39.000 --> 00:36:42.800 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Red bit. Oops. I just do a refresh, I think.
431 00:36:43.730 --> 00:36:44.210 Nicky Bourne: We're going.
432 00:36:44.210 --> 00:36:46.500 Stuart Bacon: Scroll down to your, parish lens.
433 00:36:48.870 --> 00:36:49.490 Nicky Bourne: No?
434 00:36:50.180 --> 00:36:51.590 Stuart Bacon: Turn it off and on again.
435 00:36:55.240 --> 00:36:56.049 Graham Stoddart-Stones: I lost it.
436 00:36:56.370 --> 00:36:57.250 Stuart Bacon: Oh, yeah.
437 00:36:57.250 --> 00:37:02.500 Graham Stoddart-Stones: You could just try doing a refresh, Nikki, if you would. If you go to… yeah, exactly, that one.
438 00:37:05.810 --> 00:37:09.069 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And go down to your parish layers again, and turn on your…
439 00:37:10.050 --> 00:37:13.499 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Probably got an air. There it is. So, click on that one.
440 00:37:13.500 --> 00:37:14.050 Nicky Bourne: Okay.
441 00:37:14.050 --> 00:37:16.110 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, yeah, so if you click on that.
442 00:37:17.470 --> 00:37:18.359 Nicky Bourne: On the polygon.
443 00:37:18.540 --> 00:37:19.140 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yep.
444 00:37:20.360 --> 00:37:23.249 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And then go into your layer on the left-hand side.
445 00:37:24.440 --> 00:37:26.730 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And click on the pencil to edit.
446 00:37:27.650 --> 00:37:30.749 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And now, if you zoom in quite a long way.
447 00:37:30.870 --> 00:37:41.089 Graham Stoddart-Stones: zoom in to make it a bit easier to deal with. Now you find it's very easy to change that diagonal line to a rectangle. Just pull it… there we go. You got the hang of this.
448 00:37:41.310 --> 00:37:47.949 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And just out of interest, if you'd now pull it from the middle of that top line, so move your cursor to the middle and just pull up.
449 00:37:48.990 --> 00:37:51.039 Graham Stoddart-Stones: That's how you can change that shape.
450 00:37:51.690 --> 00:38:00.950 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And that's very useful for when you're trying to follow boundary lines and so forth. The more you zoom in, the easier it is to follow a boundary.
451 00:38:01.870 --> 00:38:02.370 Nicky Bourne: Yeah.
452 00:38:02.370 --> 00:38:04.610 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So that's just showing you that.
453 00:38:05.450 --> 00:38:10.519 Graham Stoddart-Stones: But what I was going to show, if you now save that.
454 00:38:15.020 --> 00:38:21.780 Graham Stoddart-Stones: You'll now see… see how the area is being calculated for you? So that is 1,000 square meters, that new building of yours.
455 00:38:21.780 --> 00:38:22.639 Nicky Bourne: I don't know.
456 00:38:22.800 --> 00:38:33.080 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And it's… and if you're going to put a fence around the outside, the fence is going to need to be at least 126 meters long. So there's some very useful statistics automatically created for you.
457 00:38:33.740 --> 00:38:38.649 Graham Stoddart-Stones: If you were to click on the plus sign above, halfway up.
458 00:38:39.490 --> 00:38:40.040 Nicky Bourne: that.
459 00:38:40.040 --> 00:38:40.680 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yup.
460 00:38:41.480 --> 00:38:50.640 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And just add… click on Add Attachment. Now, select any document from your computer. It can be a photograph, it can be a spreadsheet, anything you like, doesn't matter.
461 00:38:51.950 --> 00:38:53.709 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Just stick it in there.
462 00:38:54.150 --> 00:38:54.910 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yep.
463 00:38:57.450 --> 00:38:59.089 Nicky Bourne: I'm gonna do it? Let's just pick a picture.
464 00:39:00.280 --> 00:39:01.680 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Perfect, yep.
465 00:39:02.660 --> 00:39:04.110 Nicky Bourne: Oh, it's not in here, is it?
466 00:39:05.250 --> 00:39:11.210 Graham Stoddart-Stones: I was trying to make it actually what it was, but… Well, I'm glad we did this anyway, because it reminds me that you wanted to see about cemeteries.
467 00:39:12.070 --> 00:39:12.910 Nicky Bourne: Yes.
468 00:39:13.210 --> 00:39:15.449 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Okay, so just, just click any old picture, yeah?
469 00:39:15.450 --> 00:39:16.140 Nicky Bourne: Yeah.
470 00:39:16.440 --> 00:39:24.340 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And now you'll find it's been added there. If you wanted to look at it, you would click on the words of the title, the bits in black. Yep.
471 00:39:25.230 --> 00:39:34.259 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And if you wanted to download it, you click on the green cloud. So to close that down, it's… you just close the second browser, you've got the tab up there, yeah.
472 00:39:34.260 --> 00:39:36.009 Nicky Bourne: Oh, you closed the whole thing then, lost you.
473 00:39:36.010 --> 00:39:37.599 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And, yes, and…
474 00:39:38.550 --> 00:39:39.340 Nicky Bourne: There.
475 00:39:39.340 --> 00:39:47.119 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yeah, exactly. That would enable somebody else to download it and get a copy of your picture if they wanted it. And of course, there's a red button to delete it.
476 00:39:48.170 --> 00:39:49.800 Nicky Bourne: That's so clever.
477 00:39:49.800 --> 00:40:04.900 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Isn't it? It's very… I think it's… I think it's a wonderful system if you're, I try and recommend to people, they think of using Paris Online as their filing system, so if you ask one of your counsellors where did they store last year's
478 00:40:05.100 --> 00:40:21.279 Graham Stoddart-Stones: playground inspection report, they might not remember where to look for that. You know, is it under reports? Is it under playground? Is it under children? Is it under assets? It could be all over the place. But if it's filed in Paris online, you just go to the playground and click on it, and up will come the report.
479 00:40:21.650 --> 00:40:22.310 Nicky Bourne: Wow.
480 00:40:22.310 --> 00:40:29.869 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Which is very handy for people who are trying to get into stuff whilst you've gone away to Madagascar on your holidays and taking the keys to the filing cabinet with you.
481 00:40:31.180 --> 00:40:34.760 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Don't ask me how I know that you do that, but I do.
482 00:40:36.400 --> 00:40:45.220 Graham Stoddart-Stones: You mentioned cemeteries, so if you close down the left-hand layer by going to the top of the column, yeah, you have to scroll up a bit.
483 00:40:46.620 --> 00:40:48.169 Graham Stoddart-Stones: There you go, just close it.
484 00:40:48.770 --> 00:40:51.460 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And you can turn off your air if you like.
485 00:40:51.960 --> 00:40:54.520 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And it'll just disappear, your red thing, good.
486 00:40:54.930 --> 00:40:59.690 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Then you can scroll down a bit to cemeteries on the brown layers.
487 00:41:01.210 --> 00:41:03.169 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yeah, click on the X to close it.
488 00:41:05.010 --> 00:41:06.500 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Go down to cemeteries.
489 00:41:08.250 --> 00:41:10.749 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Or allotments, it doesn't matter, yeah. So…
490 00:41:10.750 --> 00:41:11.370 Stuart Bacon: Oh, shit.
491 00:41:12.040 --> 00:41:20.920 Graham Stoddart-Stones: The way this works, there are two layers underneath the collection of cemeteries. So, the first one is the plots, the individual plots.
492 00:41:21.090 --> 00:41:24.699 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And they will not show up unless you put them in.
493 00:41:24.910 --> 00:41:28.500 Graham Stoddart-Stones: But the… the boundary is a collaborative layer.
494 00:41:28.730 --> 00:41:48.030 Graham Stoddart-Stones: That is visible by everybody. So I should have mentioned, perhaps, that anything you put into your parish layer can only be seen by people who log into your version of Parish Online. You can't see anybody else's, and they can't see yours. But every now and again, you find what's called a collaborative layer, which is nationwide.
495 00:41:48.660 --> 00:41:57.489 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, if you turn that on, you may well find that you've got a cemetery already showing up. If you scroll out a bit, it'll be a big brown thing.
496 00:41:58.210 --> 00:42:01.229 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Do you know… oh, that's Mason Cemetery, there it is, yeah, okay.
497 00:42:01.230 --> 00:42:06.590 Nicky Bourne: border. We've got a closed one and a church… Down here… where is it?
498 00:42:06.810 --> 00:42:07.610 Nicky Bourne: Oh, no.
499 00:42:08.900 --> 00:42:09.559 Nicky Bourne: There you go.
500 00:42:10.290 --> 00:42:13.030 Nicky Bourne: Or was it what we're done not driving it very well?
501 00:42:15.020 --> 00:42:16.020 Nicky Bourne: Oh, it's hanging.
502 00:42:16.020 --> 00:42:22.440 Graham Stoddart-Stones: It's usually easier to see if you zoom out a bit, so click on the minus sign or rotate your wheel. You say you're on a tab.
503 00:42:22.440 --> 00:42:24.599 Nicky Bourne: Yeah, oh, hang on, I've lost… where's it going?
504 00:42:25.360 --> 00:42:27.599 Nicky Bourne: Hang on, let's get back in. Where's it going?
505 00:42:30.470 --> 00:42:33.199 Graham Stoddart-Stones: You need to be a…
506 00:42:33.720 --> 00:42:37.249 Nicky Bourne: Looks like you've changed browser altogether. Was your… It's dropped me out.
507 00:42:37.250 --> 00:42:38.010 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yeah.
508 00:42:38.220 --> 00:42:38.920 Nicky Bourne: Hang on.
509 00:42:47.110 --> 00:42:49.409 Nicky Bourne: Why's it coming? Oh, I've just crashed!
510 00:42:59.590 --> 00:43:01.479 Nicky Bourne: Annoying. I'm enjoying that.
511 00:43:07.960 --> 00:43:11.839 Nicky Bourne: It's obviously Friday afternoon, shut down on my crochet.
512 00:43:12.300 --> 00:43:18.139 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Well… It's only the… oh, do you need the micro shade in order to get into…
513 00:43:18.140 --> 00:43:18.810 Nicky Bourne: the…
514 00:43:18.810 --> 00:43:19.140 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yeah.
515 00:43:19.140 --> 00:43:20.540 Nicky Bourne: That browser, yeah.
516 00:43:20.540 --> 00:43:21.210 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Right.
517 00:43:24.790 --> 00:43:26.649 Nicky Bourne: She'll just pick me up where I was, but…
518 00:43:27.830 --> 00:43:37.500 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Well, because Parash Online is a cloud-based system, you can use it from any computer with any browser. You don't have to be logged into your main.
519 00:43:37.500 --> 00:43:38.479 Nicky Bourne: Go back in on.
520 00:43:39.910 --> 00:43:42.460 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, you could just say, yeah, just…
521 00:43:43.240 --> 00:43:49.629 Graham Stoddart-Stones: If you open a new browser now, And just… yeah, exactly.
522 00:43:50.100 --> 00:43:51.400 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Right, that's good.
523 00:43:54.070 --> 00:43:55.430 Nicky Bourne: Oh, what's under there? I can't see here.
524 00:43:55.430 --> 00:43:57.009 Graham Stoddart-Stones: The mapping software is what you want.
525 00:43:57.380 --> 00:43:58.200 Nicky Bourne: First one.
526 00:43:58.510 --> 00:43:59.070 Nicky Bourne: Yep.
527 00:44:05.260 --> 00:44:08.329 Nicky Bourne: Oh, hang on, it's coming back. Oh, I'm back in the other one.
528 00:44:08.590 --> 00:44:12.270 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Alright, well, as long as it works.
529 00:44:12.710 --> 00:44:13.470 Nicky Bourne: Yeah.
530 00:44:15.490 --> 00:44:22.339 Graham Stoddart-Stones: But you see that address, that URL there, if you copy it, and you can put it into any other browser, and you'll get up.
531 00:44:22.630 --> 00:44:27.730 Graham Stoddart-Stones: You don't have to need to go… you don't need to go through the business of going into Paris Online's website.
532 00:44:28.600 --> 00:44:29.769 Nicky Bourne: Oh, that's what I did.
533 00:44:31.240 --> 00:44:32.090 Nicky Bourne: Stop.
534 00:44:32.090 --> 00:44:38.930 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yeah, just copy that, and then you can put it into your regular, your Chrome, or whatever else you happen to prefer using.
535 00:44:39.470 --> 00:44:43.270 Graham Stoddart-Stones: But… You need to enter the username and password, unfortunately.
536 00:44:43.600 --> 00:44:45.259 Graham Stoddart-Stones: At least for the first time.
537 00:44:46.870 --> 00:44:47.770 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Okay.
538 00:44:55.820 --> 00:44:56.640 Andrew Clegg, Martock, Somerset: Oh, yeah.
539 00:44:59.220 --> 00:45:00.730 Andrew Clegg, Martock, Somerset: And if we channel that…
540 00:45:01.550 --> 00:45:03.190 Nicky Bourne: We're back in the village.
541 00:45:03.190 --> 00:45:04.330 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yup, okay.
542 00:45:05.690 --> 00:45:06.060 Nicky Bourne: So on.
543 00:45:06.060 --> 00:45:09.960 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So we were talking about… you were looking for the other cemetery, the church cemetery?
544 00:45:10.260 --> 00:45:13.969 Nicky Bourne: Yes. Which is down by the street.
545 00:45:17.500 --> 00:45:18.920 Nicky Bourne: It's here, basically.
546 00:45:18.920 --> 00:45:22.529 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Perfect, okay. But it's not, it's not showing, is it? So it's…
547 00:45:22.530 --> 00:45:23.240 Nicky Bourne: No.
548 00:45:23.430 --> 00:45:28.880 Graham Stoddart-Stones: The Ordnance Survey doesn't know about it yet, which is fine, because that means that we can put it in.
549 00:45:29.500 --> 00:45:32.459 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And usually the easiest way to put in a symmetry.
550 00:45:32.460 --> 00:45:35.710 Nicky Bourne: there. Okay. There is this thing here.
551 00:45:35.710 --> 00:45:36.500 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Okay.
552 00:45:37.040 --> 00:45:41.300 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Well… We can go ahead and add that, if you like.
553 00:45:41.460 --> 00:45:44.440 Graham Stoddart-Stones: In the cemetery layers.
554 00:45:44.710 --> 00:45:48.460 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So if you go in down the left-hand column to the cemeteries.
555 00:45:52.430 --> 00:45:53.100 Nicky Bourne: Nope.
556 00:45:53.120 --> 00:45:57.390 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yep, and go into the boundary, yep, and click on the cogwheel.
557 00:45:57.990 --> 00:45:59.890 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And now you can add a feature.
558 00:46:00.040 --> 00:46:04.740 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And basically, just run your mouse around the edge of the thing, yep.
559 00:46:05.050 --> 00:46:07.090 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Oh, you're very smart, you got this.
560 00:46:08.480 --> 00:46:10.970 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Oh, I didn't do it. Oh, yeah, you just… there you go.
561 00:46:11.560 --> 00:46:17.629 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And just do it rough and ready, you don't need to be too precise at this stage, because it's much easier to re-edit it later.
562 00:46:18.390 --> 00:46:23.820 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Exactly, never mind about it, we'll tidy it up in a minute. Don't forget to double-click on the end.
563 00:46:24.400 --> 00:46:27.799 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And now, if you give it a name, so that we can find it again…
564 00:46:35.420 --> 00:46:39.430 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Okay, you can try these other things if you wanted to see what's there.
565 00:46:41.170 --> 00:46:42.520 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, is it by…
566 00:46:42.520 --> 00:46:43.090 Nicky Bourne: lose power.
567 00:46:43.090 --> 00:46:45.349 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Local council, okay.
568 00:46:46.270 --> 00:46:51.140 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Is it, if you click on each of the down arrows, it gives you a whole list to choose from.
569 00:46:52.610 --> 00:46:54.310 Stuart Bacon: conventional, I would imagine.
570 00:46:54.600 --> 00:46:55.260 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yo.
571 00:46:55.540 --> 00:47:00.190 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And… Do you have a… is this used, or it's still in use?
572 00:47:00.190 --> 00:47:02.890 Nicky Bourne: So it's just for ashes?
573 00:47:03.540 --> 00:47:05.300 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Oh, okay.
574 00:47:05.300 --> 00:47:07.160 Stuart Bacon: It's still in use, then, if it's still…
575 00:47:07.160 --> 00:47:07.970 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yep.
576 00:47:07.970 --> 00:47:08.660 Nicky Bourne: Yeah.
577 00:47:10.140 --> 00:47:14.129 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And you might see other notes, ashes only, or something.
578 00:47:15.060 --> 00:47:15.840 Nicky Bourne: Yeah.
579 00:47:18.300 --> 00:47:19.990 Nicky Bourne: I'm sure that's an official job, then.
580 00:47:20.330 --> 00:47:22.340 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And now, if you, if you save it.
581 00:47:24.650 --> 00:47:27.050 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And close down the column on the left.
582 00:47:28.710 --> 00:47:33.490 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Now you can… It's nice usual trick of disappearing.
583 00:47:33.490 --> 00:47:37.499 Stuart Bacon: You just need to move the browser so it pulls the, the graphic through.
584 00:47:38.330 --> 00:47:39.420 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, just…
585 00:47:39.420 --> 00:47:41.279 Stuart Bacon: Where you've got the, the mic.
586 00:47:41.280 --> 00:47:43.569 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Boom, left or right or something, yeah, there you go.
587 00:47:43.820 --> 00:47:44.370 Stuart Bacon: Yeah.
588 00:47:44.850 --> 00:47:51.169 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Good. So, if you now go inside, anywhere inside the cemetery and click once.
589 00:47:51.360 --> 00:47:55.820 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And you can go into the record, yup, that one.
590 00:47:56.740 --> 00:47:58.289 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And click on your pencil.
591 00:47:59.350 --> 00:48:03.330 Graham Stoddart-Stones: To edit it, now you can zoom in and get the lines exact.
592 00:48:03.500 --> 00:48:04.280 Graham Stoddart-Stones: But it's…
593 00:48:04.280 --> 00:48:04.790 Nicky Bourne: So that man's.
594 00:48:04.790 --> 00:48:07.790 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yup. Okay, well done, that's… that was very easy.
595 00:48:08.330 --> 00:48:11.030 Graham Stoddart-Stones: When you've made your changes, don't forget to save.
596 00:48:15.550 --> 00:48:19.419 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And it will, it will remember what the new line is in due course.
597 00:48:19.540 --> 00:48:24.000 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, that was the outer boundary of the cemetery.
598 00:48:24.280 --> 00:48:29.630 Graham Stoddart-Stones: What you can do now is, if you are interested, or there aren't any graveyard plots there at all.
599 00:48:30.650 --> 00:48:32.319 Nicky Bourne: There's loads of, headstones.
600 00:48:32.360 --> 00:48:51.489 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Right. So, if you wanted to track those, you can do. The beauty of that being that for each headstone, you might want to put, something that a family would like, whether it's a picture of the gravestone, or a picture of the person who's there, so that what we often find is that people who've moved abroad
601 00:48:51.800 --> 00:48:58.489 Graham Stoddart-Stones: want to see how things are back at home. You know, they can go and look at their gravestone and see,
602 00:48:58.830 --> 00:49:06.500 Graham Stoddart-Stones: where their father was buried, or something like that. So that's just sort of the information that you keep handy in Parish Online for these people.
603 00:49:06.510 --> 00:49:13.870 Nicky Bourne: Yeah. Which leads me to the next step, which is how do you get the information from Parish Online out to people?
604 00:49:14.380 --> 00:49:20.089 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And there are several ways. The most obvious one is the menu at the top called Print.
605 00:49:20.890 --> 00:49:22.739 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And if you were to click on that.
606 00:49:23.530 --> 00:49:42.419 Graham Stoddart-Stones: then basically anything that's inside the rectangle is what's going to get printed, so you can move it around so it covers the bits you want. So, yeah, just say that. Then, you can, on the left-hand column, you might try putting in the title, just so that you know where it is, and you'll see why that's useful in a minute.
607 00:49:42.780 --> 00:49:44.380 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And a quick description.
608 00:49:46.010 --> 00:49:50.610 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, where all the ashes get put, or something like that, whatever you like, it doesn't matter.
609 00:49:56.510 --> 00:49:57.530 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Okay.
610 00:49:57.850 --> 00:50:09.280 Graham Stoddart-Stones: You can choose it to be either a PDF or a graphics file, usually a PDF for sending it to people, you have a graphics file if you're going to be working on something like your neighborhood plan.
611 00:50:09.810 --> 00:50:18.639 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And then all those options are turned off, but I suggest you just turn on, just for the sake of argument today, turn on the north arrow, say.
612 00:50:19.670 --> 00:50:21.800 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Right, and now you can click on Print.
613 00:50:23.320 --> 00:50:26.229 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And the system's whirring away up in the cloud.
614 00:50:26.540 --> 00:50:30.550 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And when it's finished, it'll give you a little, lead to go to.
615 00:50:30.550 --> 00:50:31.019 Stuart Bacon: scroll down.
616 00:50:31.020 --> 00:50:32.699 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Need to scroll down a little.
617 00:50:36.260 --> 00:50:43.199 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And you'll see it's given it the same title as you put upstairs, and if you click on the arrow in the box to the right.
618 00:50:48.810 --> 00:50:50.150 Graham Stoddart-Stones: That's what you get.
619 00:50:50.470 --> 00:50:58.689 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And you can now send that to your printer in the normal way, or you can just send it as a PDF file to, anybody you like.
620 00:50:58.830 --> 00:51:09.030 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Or you can store it on your computer, whatever, you know, it's now an electronic document, you can do what you like. The beauty of printing things this way is if you scroll down to the bottom of that picture.
621 00:51:12.290 --> 00:51:20.569 Graham Stoddart-Stones: You'll see that it's got the official terminology that says you're licensed to use this, so this is now a valid
622 00:51:20.780 --> 00:51:29.830 Graham Stoddart-Stones: public document, which has got all the licensing information that you need to declare on it. So this is now a legal doc… a legally permissible document, if you will.
623 00:51:30.360 --> 00:51:38.580 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So that's one of the advantages of printing, and you can send that off electronically, or you can just print it on a piece of paper.
624 00:51:38.800 --> 00:51:49.590 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So that's one way of getting information to people. Another way, is what's called public maps. So if you go back into your X map, that's one browser tab to the left.
625 00:51:51.060 --> 00:51:54.249 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, go up to the browser tabs, go along to the very right-hand end.
626 00:51:54.250 --> 00:51:55.010 Nicky Bourne: Oh my goodness.
627 00:51:55.010 --> 00:51:56.719 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And come to the one inside.
628 00:51:57.490 --> 00:51:59.710 Nicky Bourne: I don't see that, why is this other thing going?
629 00:52:00.190 --> 00:52:04.520 Stuart Bacon: So, that's the print one. If you close down the right-hand one, the print will disappear.
630 00:52:07.270 --> 00:52:08.270 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yep, yep.
631 00:52:08.270 --> 00:52:12.330 Nicky Bourne: Can I just ask a question? Those trees in there, are they randomly put on?
632 00:52:13.110 --> 00:52:13.970 Stuart Bacon: We do.
633 00:52:14.200 --> 00:52:18.340 Graham Stoddart-Stones: I suspect that they're the Ordnance Survey's view of what's there.
634 00:52:18.640 --> 00:52:23.399 Nicky Bourne: Yeah, because there are some very big trees, but there's a few more. I just wondered why there were those ones, but not others, or…
635 00:52:23.400 --> 00:52:35.040 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Well, because, your… everything that you see on the map has come from the Ordnance Survey, if you don't have any layers turned on. And so it's what… they're operating on, the information.
636 00:52:35.410 --> 00:52:37.570 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, if you go, oh, back.
637 00:52:37.570 --> 00:52:41.329 Stuart Bacon: Yeah, you accidentally closed the Paratrone line there.
638 00:52:41.330 --> 00:52:43.509 Nicky Bourne: one again, see if I can get back in this one.
639 00:52:43.510 --> 00:52:44.140 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yeah, that'll lose.
640 00:52:44.140 --> 00:52:47.090 Stuart Bacon: Refresh the page there on the left-hand side, yep.
641 00:52:52.150 --> 00:52:53.690 Nicky Bourne: I think I've peaked.
642 00:52:55.240 --> 00:52:56.840 Nicky Bourne: I think my computer's peaked.
643 00:52:57.800 --> 00:53:04.039 Stuart Bacon: Go back to the, the… the Edge browser on your… on the bottom.
644 00:53:04.350 --> 00:53:04.910 Nicky Bourne: Yep.
645 00:53:05.080 --> 00:53:14.720 Stuart Bacon: And then, to the right-hand side, at the very top, between, between the minus and the plus, or between the plus and the minus.
646 00:53:14.930 --> 00:53:23.459 Stuart Bacon: In that grey space, in between the two, right-click there, And then, reopen closed tab.
647 00:53:24.170 --> 00:53:24.949 Nicky Bourne: I woke up.
648 00:53:25.370 --> 00:53:30.010 Nicky Bourne: Learned lots of things this way. That's genius. Didn't know that.
649 00:53:30.010 --> 00:53:37.280 Stuart Bacon: And that's… that's brought back the last… the last one you've got open. Yeah. So, there we are, we're back with the… the garage doors.
650 00:53:38.030 --> 00:53:44.159 Stuart Bacon: So, you'll have to turn the lair back on under, cemeteries to see the boundary again.
651 00:53:45.370 --> 00:53:45.820 Nicky Bourne: which one.
652 00:53:45.820 --> 00:53:48.340 Stuart Bacon: So scroll down… scroll down to Cemeteries.
653 00:53:48.870 --> 00:53:49.870 Stuart Bacon: up a bit.
654 00:53:50.510 --> 00:53:52.880 Stuart Bacon: Up a bit, you've gone too far. There you go.
655 00:53:56.170 --> 00:54:00.169 Stuart Bacon: And if you turn that layer on, there you go, there's your boundary again.
656 00:54:01.080 --> 00:54:10.220 Stuart Bacon: If you turn… If you turn the aerial photography on.
657 00:54:14.180 --> 00:54:19.269 Stuart Bacon: Then you'll begin to see where your trees are in relation to that.
658 00:54:19.270 --> 00:54:20.739 Nicky Bourne: Let's see my little gravestone.
659 00:54:21.170 --> 00:54:26.000 Stuart Bacon: Yeah. So if you go up to the Ordnance Survey PSGA layer.
660 00:54:26.940 --> 00:54:33.260 Stuart Bacon: And either turn down the map there, or…
661 00:54:33.640 --> 00:54:38.870 Stuart Bacon: if you choose the third one down in the list, the OS Premium Stack White.
662 00:54:39.740 --> 00:54:41.730 Stuart Bacon: And turn the standard one off.
663 00:54:44.660 --> 00:54:50.180 Stuart Bacon: Then that keeps all of the map detail, but it just puts it in as white lines…
664 00:54:50.340 --> 00:54:57.490 Stuart Bacon: So it's easier… you… you don't get the, the crossing there of the… the map layers and the…
665 00:54:57.780 --> 00:55:11.039 Stuart Bacon: the aerial photography. It's easier to sort of read that when you're constantly looking at the aerial photography, if that's the way you're looking at trying to add in any detail for your cemetery.
666 00:55:12.150 --> 00:55:15.080 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Got some lovely, trees there, haven't you? They're gorgeous.
667 00:55:15.080 --> 00:55:18.179 Nicky Bourne: Oh, we've got, yes, many a tree blooms.
668 00:55:18.500 --> 00:55:24.340 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, the… Yep.
669 00:55:24.950 --> 00:55:26.060 Nicky Bourne: Oh, did I do that?
670 00:55:27.030 --> 00:55:28.579 Nicky Bourne: Am I done, we'll be touched.
671 00:55:29.420 --> 00:55:33.500 Stuart Bacon: It's just because you clicked in… within the boundary of the cemetery, it's fine.
672 00:55:33.660 --> 00:55:34.300 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Cope.
673 00:55:35.090 --> 00:55:44.970 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, the… the other way of sharing information I was going to mention to you, Nikki, was there's a facility within Parish Online called Public Maps.
674 00:55:45.590 --> 00:55:56.529 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And we won't go into it right now, but the beauty of it is, is at the end of the exercise of doing Public Max, which is only a 4- or 5-step process, you come up with a URL,
675 00:55:56.570 --> 00:56:11.500 Graham Stoddart-Stones: which you can then send to anybody, and they will be able to see exactly the part of Parish Online that you were looking at when you created it. And the system also creates the coding that you could send to your web designer.
676 00:56:11.650 --> 00:56:17.559 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So that, that… Facility will exist on your parish website.
677 00:56:17.780 --> 00:56:26.029 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And then anybody who accesses your website can click on and see into Parish Online, much as you created it.
678 00:56:26.690 --> 00:56:36.569 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, the obvious one that I think most people use is planning applications, because everyone's interested in planning applications. So, you can put planning applications on the map.
679 00:56:37.100 --> 00:56:47.589 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And then, once you've created a public map once, any changes you make to Parish Online thereafter will automatically be reflected in the website.
680 00:56:48.130 --> 00:56:52.310 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, if you had a new planning application next week.
681 00:56:52.430 --> 00:57:00.049 Graham Stoddart-Stones: To the map. And then the public map, which you created this week, will be updated with next week's information.
682 00:57:00.050 --> 00:57:00.790 Nicky Bourne: Bye.
683 00:57:00.790 --> 00:57:09.699 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Which is a very handy way of getting information from you out to your community, which is a large part of the name of your game.
684 00:57:09.700 --> 00:57:10.420 Nicky Bourne: Yes.
685 00:57:11.930 --> 00:57:23.279 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So let me just pause there briefly to see if you've got any specific questions you wanted answered, in the remaining few minutes, and also whether Andrew, who's sitting there very patiently.
686 00:57:24.250 --> 00:57:32.929 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Andrew, I was holding off for you on the new merger facility, because you said you wanted to see how that worked, unless you've made it work now.
687 00:57:32.930 --> 00:57:41.909 Andrew Clegg, Martock, Somerset: No, I haven't… I haven't tried it. I'm… I'm very… not with Parish Online, but with XMAP, and I haven't tried anything like that on…
688 00:57:41.910 --> 00:57:44.970 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Okay, well, in that case, we'll leave it then, if it's…
689 00:57:44.970 --> 00:57:45.310 Andrew Clegg, Martock, Somerset: Yeah.
690 00:57:45.310 --> 00:57:48.190 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Not a matter of burning interest to you.
691 00:57:48.370 --> 00:57:50.690 Graham Stoddart-Stones: But in that case.
692 00:57:51.000 --> 00:57:58.279 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Nikki, assuming that Stuart doesn't have anything more he wants to mention, the ball is back in your court to say, was there anything else we can help you with?
693 00:57:58.280 --> 00:58:03.200 Nicky Bourne: No, that is… that's enough for today, thank you, but you've really opened up, yeah.
694 00:58:03.200 --> 00:58:14.300 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Actually, Stuart has done a couple of really nice things. He's put a couple of examples of shared maps in the chat, so if you were to click on either one of those, you'd see what we were talking about.
695 00:58:18.170 --> 00:58:21.919 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Oh my, the one I've got is a superb overhead map.
696 00:58:22.060 --> 00:58:23.630 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Oh, overhead picture.
697 00:58:23.810 --> 00:58:26.029 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Presumably of Huncut, is it?
698 00:58:26.380 --> 00:58:27.050 Stuart Bacon: Yes.
699 00:58:27.370 --> 00:58:28.080 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Right.
700 00:58:28.470 --> 00:58:40.150 Stuart Bacon: Yeah, so that's just a starter on our cemetery. It's not… I've not done anything massively with it, but it just… yeah, that's the example, I guess, where you can…
701 00:58:40.260 --> 00:58:41.889 Graham Stoddart-Stones: I clicked on the second one, so…
702 00:58:42.460 --> 00:58:43.750 Graham Stoddart-Stones: What's that one showing?
703 00:58:44.270 --> 00:58:56.610 Stuart Bacon: The second one is, the posts and bollards there, which shows all of the lamp posts, bollards, and details, bins, and everything around the village. Yeah.
704 00:58:56.610 --> 00:59:14.650 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Oh, okay, so you've usually made the point for Nikki that in order to see those things, you need to go and turn on the layers on the left-hand side. Yeah. Oh, you've got everything there, fantastic. So if I turn on the post and borrowers there, oh my goodness me, look at that.
705 00:59:14.870 --> 00:59:17.620 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Do you ever do anything else besides parish online?
706 00:59:19.460 --> 00:59:26.520 Stuart Bacon: Yeah, well, this was just, I guess the odd 5 minutes here and there over a protracted period.
707 00:59:26.520 --> 00:59:30.709 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Yeah, it makes all the difference in the world. I mean, it's very impressive. It looks really great.
708 00:59:32.810 --> 00:59:34.260 Nicky Bourne: So much potential.
709 00:59:35.290 --> 00:59:40.469 Stuart Bacon: So, yes. But it's… doing it as a… as a public map like this.
710 00:59:40.730 --> 00:59:52.060 Stuart Bacon: You don't have to, sort of, give anybody access to your system, but it works out really well when you're, sort of, trying to,
711 00:59:52.930 --> 00:59:59.490 Stuart Bacon: Trying to explain something to, say, highways or whatever, and you can say, this is exactly where it is.
712 00:59:59.590 --> 01:00:16.740 Stuart Bacon: here's the map, it shows you, yeah, and they can give it to their operatives, who can log in remotely when they're out looking at it, and see the detail. They're not looking at a paper map which loses the detail at,
713 01:00:16.990 --> 01:00:24.219 Stuart Bacon: Because it's zoomed out over a large area, they can zoom in to a very close layer and find out exactly what they need.
714 01:00:25.770 --> 01:00:26.380 Nicky Bourne: Yeah.
715 01:00:26.560 --> 01:00:27.910 Nicky Bourne: Brilliant.
716 01:00:29.650 --> 01:00:30.440 Nicky Bourne: Look at that.
717 01:00:33.430 --> 01:00:34.930 Nicky Bourne: I think we've got some work to do.
718 01:00:38.620 --> 01:00:48.009 Stuart Bacon: Yeah, don't, don't fret, I mean, I'm… I guess, yeah, I've been using this stuff now for, what, the last 15 years? So, yeah, it's… yeah.
719 01:00:50.190 --> 01:00:50.870 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Is that a filter.
720 01:00:50.870 --> 01:00:52.430 Stuart Bacon: over… over time.
721 01:00:52.430 --> 01:00:58.850 Graham Stoddart-Stones: That was a wonderful example of that, Stuart, thank you. Or two wonderful Good.
722 01:00:59.030 --> 01:01:01.360 Graham Stoddart-Stones: What if…
723 01:01:01.610 --> 01:01:14.849 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Is there anything else you'd like us to show you? I can mention, Nikki, that, although you've seen most of it now, but in case you wanted, say, your deputy to follow through, there is a free demo of how Parish Online works.
724 01:01:15.060 --> 01:01:18.209 Nicky Bourne: Every, every Wednesday at 11 o'clock in the morning.
725 01:01:18.550 --> 01:01:19.900 Nicky Bourne: Wednesday, 11am.
726 01:01:19.900 --> 01:01:25.900 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And you can get that… the details from that, link I gave you, the training courses.
727 01:01:26.500 --> 01:01:35.059 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, one of the courses available, I think it's called 998, is the demo, and one… the 999 is the afternoon sessions like this.
728 01:01:35.890 --> 01:01:40.230 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So it just gives you a URL to go to to… Take advantage of them.
729 01:01:40.520 --> 01:01:41.960 Nicky Bourne: Excellent, thank you.
730 01:01:41.960 --> 01:01:46.370 Graham Stoddart-Stones: And you're welcome. And I hope it's… I hope it's been useful and you've enjoyed it.
731 01:01:46.370 --> 01:01:47.750 Nicky Bourne: Oh, very, very
732 01:01:48.650 --> 01:01:52.169 Nicky Bourne: Thank you so much, I'm glad I've logged on. I should be back for other things, I'm sure.
733 01:01:54.610 --> 01:01:55.440 Nicky Bourne: Nice to meet you.
734 01:01:55.440 --> 01:02:01.040 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Good. So, Andrew, are you still underwater? Are you still buried in phosphates? Are you still doing.
735 01:02:02.080 --> 01:02:13.369 Andrew Clegg, Martock, Somerset: Sort of, but… no, I was thinking at the end of this session, I gave almost precisely the same lesson.
736 01:02:13.440 --> 01:02:30.270 Andrew Clegg, Martock, Somerset: to the person who is succeeding me. You know, I'm the Martok tree god, because I've planted more trees in Martok than in Brazil, and I'm being succeeded by the assistant tree god, and I have to train him to do this mapping.
737 01:02:30.270 --> 01:02:37.949 Andrew Clegg, Martock, Somerset: And, I realized after the end of that session that I'd missed out so many useful things, like
738 01:02:37.950 --> 01:02:55.789 Andrew Clegg, Martock, Somerset: if you're making a map of trees, turn on the trees in the background there. I also forgot that there was a tree icon that he could use, and things like that. Yeah, I wish I'd known that this was coming up, beforehand, because I'd have got him along to it.
739 01:02:58.090 --> 01:03:03.140 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Well, of course, the content of any one session is largely determined by who shows up.
740 01:03:03.140 --> 01:03:14.169 Andrew Clegg, Martock, Somerset: Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, that was very good, very helpful, actually. I've just… as you were doing it, I wrote a long email to him to say that there are a few other things that he could do if he wants.
741 01:03:15.020 --> 01:03:20.700 Stuart Bacon: fit as well, is you've got, Graham will be uploading this to his wiki, so… Yes.
742 01:03:20.700 --> 01:03:21.930 Graham Stoddart-Stones: You can always direct him.
743 01:03:21.930 --> 01:03:24.689 Andrew Clegg, Martock, Somerset: Oh, yes, okay, that's a good idea.
744 01:03:24.690 --> 01:03:26.990 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, when I've done it, Andrew, I'll let you know.
745 01:03:26.990 --> 01:03:28.760 Andrew Clegg, Martock, Somerset: Okay, thanks, yeah.
746 01:03:28.760 --> 01:03:31.420 Graham Stoddart-Stones: In fact, it goes to everybody who's attended a session.
747 01:03:31.420 --> 01:03:32.170 Andrew Clegg, Martock, Somerset: Yeah.
748 01:03:32.640 --> 01:03:34.320 Graham Stoddart-Stones: You will get a copy of it.
749 01:03:36.250 --> 01:03:41.430 Graham Stoddart-Stones: Well, it's officially the weekend, ladies and gentlemen, so…
750 01:03:41.430 --> 01:03:41.990 Andrew Clegg, Martock, Somerset: And…
751 01:03:42.150 --> 01:03:46.830 Graham Stoddart-Stones: I have a Labrador who declares that it isn't the weekend at all, it's its walk time.
752 01:03:47.530 --> 01:03:48.050 Andrew Clegg, Martock, Somerset: Mmm.
753 01:03:48.050 --> 01:03:51.069 Graham Stoddart-Stones: So, he's very insistent, very demanding.
754 01:03:51.070 --> 01:03:52.469 Nicky Bourne: Where are you in the world, Graham?
755 01:03:52.660 --> 01:03:54.179 Graham Stoddart-Stones: I'm on the Isle of Wight.
756 01:03:54.180 --> 01:03:54.800 Nicky Bourne: Oh.
757 01:03:54.800 --> 01:03:58.030 Graham Stoddart-Stones: I'm your overseas member of Parish Online.
758 01:03:58.330 --> 01:03:58.910 Nicky Bourne: Oh.
759 01:03:59.330 --> 01:04:00.260 Nicky Bourne: Congrats and the other one.
