Direct Use Areas (pink regions): Those areas that have conditions favorable for the discovery of thermal water of sufficient temperature for energy saving non-electrical purposes. The color in the legend is more saturated than the color in the map because the map layer is semi-transparent. Note that Direct use area polygons are NOT part of the published

FAQs - Frequently Asked Questions
"How do I zoom to a particular scale?"
You cannot zoom to a particular scale. Use the scale tools to zoom to predetermined scales.
"How do I save or print a map image?"
Use the "Save As PDF" tool to view the currently displayed map image in a new browser window. Use that browser window's File > Print command to print or save the PDF file.
"Why doesn't the screen update when I click layers on and off?"
The map contains a lot of data. Sometimes the display needs time to "catch up" to the clicks. If the map will not refresh properly, try resetting the map (click the Reset button in the Tools area), or refreshing the page, or closing the browser window and then opening the map page again.
