 Saved Study Areas

The 'Saved Study Areas' repository enables users to store and share study areas within their organization. It also provides a convenient way to revisit previously defined study areas, promoting collaboration amongst others on your team. This is supplementary to the project tab where you can also access previously created study areas, however these are not shared with others on your team.

Use Cases

  2. How do I share a study area with other team members who are using Sitewise?
