Edit more than one item at a time
When editing layers (such as markers, routes, tracks, etc.) I want multi-selection options so that I can change colors, styles, fonts, and delete all at once.

USGS Hybrid Topo/Photo "US National Map"
I want to use the new "US National Map" topos that the USGS is creating in TNP. I know your street overlay and aerial photos are just as detailed, but my agency needs the "official USGS" edition.

In prefrences ,range rings, allow input of 4 unique distances before returning to map.
In the SAR world early in a missing person search, one of the first uses of TNP is to describe the statistical data base of lost persons. This nationwide database expresses data in 25,50,75, and 95 percentile rings. It would greatly assist our efforts to be able to input four unique range rings in Preferences/range rings/set by distance so we would not have to work back and forth from set up to map to set these statistical rings.

Be Able to Start A New Line At or On an Existing Line or Object
Currently, new lines have to be started a short distance away from any existing lines or features. This causes a glitch in the professionalism of maps because there are "stub outs" that have no purpose and always raise questions by map recipients.

Alter a project while the print screen is open.
Often I enter the print screen and take many steps setting up a print then need to make a small adjustment, such as hiding certain tracks or markers or changing colors, and have to close the print screen, make the changes and then reopen print to make all the adjustments that were just set up to print the next map.

Radius Tool or Tower Tool
Add radio propagation model: Identify a point for a tower, its height above ground level, and how many miles it can transmit, then TNP shades the map to show you where signal can reach and where it can't. Alternatively: Locate a point, move any distance from that point, click to set your radius and then move the cursor in an arc to draw any portion of a circle from 5 degrees to 360 degrees. It would show the length in feet of the radius (i.e. length of pivot) and the acres within the circle or partial circle.

Leaf off aerial photos.
In addition to or in place of the leaf on aerial photos, color leaf off aerials would show so much more detail. For example streams, skid trails and field edges can all be seen with leaf off photos but they hide under the canopy of the trees.

Display track information (primarily track length and track area) by track in the "Edit Track" screen

Like to have access to historical photos through TNP.
13 votesYou can access some historic imagery already through the Alternate Editions of Photos. TNP 11 adds some additional years. These will continue to be expanded as time and resources allow.

Near IR aerial photography layer
Natural Resource Managers would see a huge benefit to having near IR aerial photos to compare to regular aerial photographs in order to determine where stands dominated more by conifers differ from deciduos dominated stands.

Allow track and route names/numbers to be displayed on screen as markers are.
Currently you can't have track names on-screen. Names, trail numbers, etc., are very useful for our SAR unit. Having such a feature would save us time in preparing mission maps.

As a Forester Making maps
I signed up for the free trial.
The fact that you have a mapping program on Mac is excellent.
The layers and map types are great.
I exported and uploaded my gpx files in record time.
However the tools drop down list is limited for my needs...
I need to make maps with different color schemes for boundary lines, trails, stand type, etc.
Also need a legend to identify stands and other features. Being able to insert text box, and free draw is necessary for timber sale maps, and management plan maps too.
Otherwise this program is awesome, i'm hopeful…9 votesGood news.
We are working on a whole Timber Cruise module that will connect the PC desktop’s powerful set of mapping tools with the TNP Mobile app for data collection. Tracts and Stands will be easily created on the PC desktop, with customized cruise grids and collection parameters. Then the mobile app will be used to collect the data, and transmitted back to the desktop for processing. Look for this new add-on for TNP in 2019.
