===To add an image=== | |||
Reference the Scent Coordinates chart to find the appropriate section. Click the coordinates on the chart to go to the wiki page for that location or click on the image on the map you wish to replace and upload a new version of the file. Please try to keep the new image at roughly the same aspect ratio as the old and upload in .PNG file format. Uploading a file will change the image as it is displayed on the map and on the wiki page for the location from which the scan was taken. Please replace the signature of the previous field agent on the location page with your own signature. | |||

If you wish to post to the suburb news page to let survivors know that the data has been updated, the following template has been provided. For instructions on its use, see [[Template:Zscentscan|here]]. | |||

The ZALP map is by no means the first map of its kind. Other maps such as the [[Omnimap]] | The ZALP map is by no means the first map of its kind. Other maps such as the [[Omnimap]] [Please note that neither the Omnimap nor the Scenteral Intelligence Map are still used. [[User:Catherine Cushing|<span style="font-family:Goudy Old Style;color:#008080;font-size:small">'''Catherine Cushing'''</span>]] [[User talk:Catherine Cushing|<span style="color:#F74A4A;font-size:small;font-family:Goudy Old Style">(talk)</span>]] ] have put forth similar ideas and certain groups make use of proprietary in-house maps. These maps incorporate a more flexible data input system than the one on this page though some require the installation of certain scripts to update efficiently. The advantage of the ZALP map is its accessibility (it is easily updatable and requires no script to use) and its efficiency (requiring fewer than 20 days for a single individual to update the entire city map). The guiding principle being that, in order for a map like this to have value, it must be updated by the greatest number of people possible, as frequently as possible. To this end, the simpler the better. That said, this is a resource not a competitor: users should feel free to use data from this map to update the others if they wish. | ||
