- Each map has a context menu 'GPS & Map'.
- The concept of center coordinates has been enhanced. In Eco:Map's settings 'GPS & Map' there is a new entry 'Calculated center coordinate'. This coordinate is the center of minimum distance to all find positions.
- Each find's position on a map can be modified by either dragging and dropping its pin or by using the coordinate editor.
- The field trip's map contains a new button. It opens a small target window in the middle of the map. In this mode the selection of finds is only possible for those finds that lie within this window. This helps selecting finds which are very close to each other.
- The area of finds on a field trip's map is now highlighted.
- Users that have many field trips can now archive them. When pressing 'Edit' in the field trips' overview the button 'Archive' appears. After having pressed it the user can tap on the field trips he would like to archive. Archiving means that field trips are no longer visible. By repeating this procedure the user can reactivate them.
- The context menu of a find contains the entry 'Duplicate'. This allows users to make a copy of a find.
- The number of finds for each field trip is now shown in the overview of field trips.
