General
This section of the manual contains a basic guide to using the Plan Viewer (PV) - a system that allows you to search the cadastral map, view cadastral units and indexes, & access their associated title sheets or casenotes.
In addition to being able to view cadastral units and indexes, it is also possible to view the aerial photography and County Series maps available to RoS.
The guide takes the form of various short "How do I...?" pages taking you through the most common uses of the PV.
