Filter Layer Groups in GIS Map

[About GIS Integration] [GIS Concepts] [GIS Customizations] [GIS Integration]

Explanation

By creating several IFS navigator entries for the GIS Map form, different maps can be created. This activity is used to filter, among the groups available to a user, what layer groups are available in a certain GIS Map navigator entry. Combined with the Own Process parameter in the navigator entry properties, different map configurations can be created.

Prerequisites

Layers and layer groups must have been defined and configured to users.

System Effects

Among the groups defined for a user, only the specified layer groups will be available in the particular instance of the GIS Map window.

Window

This is done in the IFS Enterprise Explorer navigator.
