Radial Tool

Use the Radial tool to make a selection based on a radial selection from a geographic midpoint using either a combination of Longitude and Latitude, or a postcode.

The tool contains standard search, zoom and navigation tools, depending on your individual implementation.

For example, make a selection such as Select all Customers in Households that are within twenty miles of point X, where point X is the planned location of a new store:
