# Project Location

When adding a project location, you'll need to select the neighborhood and add an address. If you have more than one address for a project, you have the ability to add multiple addresses:

We built our project pages to search arcGIS datasets depending on the type of project to help create the map. For example, **Streets** projects will return results on our map that just display streets in the City. **Parks and Green Space** searches our open space dataset, and **Housing** is searching for available parcel data. By default, we are searching parcel data.

**Please note**: The selection of Project Type is in the Project Information of the page:

If you're having trouble fetching the geodata for your location, you can try adjusting the project type before generating the map. You'll be able to adjust this field later after the map is populated.

To get the map on the page to render, click the **Get Map Data** button below the address. There's also a **Clear Map** that allows you to start from scratch:

If you're having trouble finding the location on the map, you can actually edit the map itself.&#x20;

First, we recommend opening the map up by clicking the exand option at the top right:

When you open up the map, you have a few options available at the top of the page.

* The **hand icon** is used to remove existing points on the map, or to move existing points, lines, or polygons on the map.
* The **pinpoint icon** allows you drop a pin on the map.
* The **line option** allows you to draw a line on the map (great option for streets).
* The **polygon option** allows you to add shapes and polygons on the map (great option for parcels or multiple parcels).

* **To use the hand icon to remove something on the map**, just select the hand and click on the smaller circles in the line and polygon drawings, or on the pin.
* **If you want to use the hand to move something**, hold your mouse down on the pin, line, or polygon and drag it to the right location.
