Quickly remove parcels from a larger project that don't meet your desired criteria so you can stay focused on the highest opportunity parcels. You can remove parcels directly from the map or from the project list, and you can remove them one-by-one or at once.
Remove parcels from the map
You can remove parcels from the map either individually (one at a time) or collectively (various at once).
Remove individual parcels one at a time
- Click on the parcel on the map. You may need to click over to the relevant tab for the parcel if it shows hazard/constraint map tabs first
- In the parcel pop-up, click the red trashcan icon
Removing a parcel or other object from the project map will also remove the corresponding parcel/asset from the list-view of parcels.
Remove multiple parcels at once
You can also remove multiple parcels simultaneously, i.e. bulk remove them. This way, you can quickly clear the map of information that you don't need. There are two ways to do that:
- Multi-selecting (CTRL/Command-click)
- Selecting by polygon
Multi-select click
- Select each parcel to remove
- Hold down the CTRL/Command key on the keyboard
- While holding down CTRL/Command, click on each of the parcels on the map that you want to remove
This will select multiple parcels in the map sidebar.
- In the map sidebar, click the trashcan icon to remove the selected parcels
- In the confirmation pop-up, click Remove
This will remove the parcels from both the project map and associated asset list. The parcels will still be saved as assets on the assets map/list, if needed in the future.
Select by Polygon
Trace a polygon around (or through) parcels or other objects on the map that you want to bulk remove.
- Click on Map Tools
- Click on Select by Polygon
- Then click on Saved Assets & Drawings
This will turn on the tracing functionality.
- Trace a polygon around and (or through) all the parcels you want to select for removal
- Double-click the final node of the polygon to save the selection area
Now, the selected parcels will now be visible on the list in the top-right corner of the map.
- Click the trashcan icon in the map sidebar to delete the selected parcels from the project.
- In the confirmation pop-up, click Remove
This will delete the parcels from both the project map and associated asset list. The parcels will still be saved as assets on the assets map/list, if needed in the future.
Remove parcels from the project list
- On the project, go to the Parcels tab (below the project map)
- Use the checkboxes on the left-side of the parcels list to select individual parcels to delete. You can also select all the parcels in the list by using the topmost checkbox.
Manually check individual boxes OR use one of the filter tools to filter/sort list and subsequently select parcels to remove based on certain criteria. For example, bulk remove all parcels with < 20 buildable acres OR bulk remove all parcels owned by City of Boulder.
- Once you've selected the desired parcels, click on the Selected (#) button that now appears above the list.
- Click Remove from Project
This will delete the parcels from both the project map and associated asset list. The parcels will still be saved as assets on the assets map/list, if needed in the future.
