Userguides
Click here for a general introduction to the Stanfords Portal system. User manuals are available for download on our userguides page.
This page is designed to provide our customers with a range of support documentation that best suits their individual requirements. To that end we have, where relevant, included both a brief, simplied text version with line by line commands and a full user manual containing screenshots and descriptions.
1) Search tools.
There are 4 ways to search for the property/ site that you require so we have included a separate guide for this process. All 4 methods are available irrespective of which product you eventually choose although it would be unusual to upload a shapefile to define a planning application map for instance.
