New Release of HyDRA and TransAtlas

We've added two new features. You can now apply custom colors to layers and change the order of layers by dragging and dropping layers and folders. How? Read on...

1. To change the colors of a layer, right-click on the layer in the layer tree and choose 'View Legend.' Click on the colored symbol for a class. A color chooser will appear. Select the desired color and click 'Apply.' The layer will re-draw in the desired color. The layer may draw a little slower than when using the default color scheme. To revert to the default color scheme, choose 'Reset Layer' from the View Legend menu.

New and Improved HyDRA

The HyDRA (Hydrogen Demand and Resource Analysis) model is a web-based GIS tool to allow analysts, decision makers, and general users to view, download, and analyze hydrogen demand, resource, and infrastructure data spatially and dynamically.

HyDRA has been completely re-designed to take advantage of the latest technologies to deliver improved look and feel and usability. Log in or create an account, then check out the new HyDRA!
