After reading your comment it is very clear how a scale of 500 foot=1 inch would really be beneficial for the tasks that you complete on a regular basis. We have been looking into some new map scaling options that I think you will find very useful and are planning to offer those to you as well as the rest of our users in the very near future. Thank you very much for your ideas and your feedback, both are definitely appreciated and will assist us in the continuing develop of a product that works for you.

We do a quick check on the sex offenders addresses using your program, regarding residing within 1000' of school, daycare, park, etc. We use your program to do a basic measurement, and if it appears to be close, we then investigate further. It would be handy to have the scale already figured! Thanks!! I would like to see the map scaling be available in a 500 foot = 1 inch scale.

Yes, we have discussed a "beacon mobile" application. While nothing has begun yet we would like to work with current clients as well as users to gather their thoughts and ideas. I will be posting a specific "topic of discussion" regarding the mobile application shortly. Please feel free to start your own discussions in the meantime, we are very interested to see what others have to say. Thanks a lot! Yes, we have discussed a “beacon mobile” application.
