The Report Generator widget lets you select features on the map and instantly generate a clean, consistent Microsoft Word document using a custom template. Each report includes feature attributes and a map snapshot, formatted to match your organisation’s needs.
It is ideal for producing case summaries, asset reports, inspection outputs, or anything else that involves summarising geospatial data in a readable, shareable format. Just select, click, and download – no scripting or desktop tools required.
