With the Open Geoviewer function, you can click in the drawing area and specify a viewing direction. OCAD opens by default a web browser with Google Street View at the chosen position and direction.

The prerequisite for using Geoviewers is that the map is georeferenced and covered by the Geoviewer service.
Why you should use Geoviewer?
The use of Geoviewer can be very helpful for sprint maps, as many objects can already be drawn at home or a certain scene can be checked again afterwards. This reduces the amount of field work. It is advisable to test different Geoviewer services.
