We are excited to announce our March 2019 release is now live and would like to take a few minutes to share our latest updates to help you expand your mapping use cases within your day-to-day workflow.

Weather Layer
Benefits & Features:
• Add a weather layer to the map
• Gain an understanding of the weather in any area
• Simply click on the cloud icon on the map to add as a layer
As a result of customer requests, we have now added Weather Layers. One of the simplest topics to connect with a customer or prospect over is the weather. With Weather Layers you can easily see what the weather is like in the area your Contact is in with the simple addition of a layer on the map.

Web Map Service (WMS) Layer
Benefits & Features:
• Publish geo-referenced map images on Geopointe maps
• Publish data from an Esri, Carto or other GIS software
The content of a WMS Layer is whatever the source server is publishing, whether it’s covering the whole map or a layer of specific locations. The server-side of the WMS Layer can also be configured to return information as the layer is clicked.
If your company has map data in a GIS system like Esri, ask our team about how your organization can publish WMS Layers to Geopointe and provide this information to Salesforce users.

Multi-Currency Support

Our March 2019 release now includes functionality to support organizations using multiple currencies. No configuration is needed, Geopointe will work from the Salesforce configuration already in place. For organizations with multi-currency enabled in Salesforce, Geopointe will now include an additional currency value for each currency field in a Data Set. This additional value will convert the record’s currency to the user’s currency.
