Configure Maps

The LocalMaps Viewer theme is applied to any webmaps shared with the LocalMaps Group. Although the viewers might have the same look and feel, it may not make sense to have the exact same tools available in every single one. That is why with LocalMaps, you can configure and tailor each map viewer to have different widgets, print layouts and templates, searches, reports and feature queries. To get started, select the map you wish to configure from the webmap drop-down.

Map Widgets

There are 15 widgets available with a base LocalMaps installation (see LocalMaps User Guide for details on each). This section allows you to configure which widgets should and should not appear in the map. By default, all widgets are enabled for a map. To disable a widget for a specific map, simply click on the widget you wish to disable. The widget icon will turn grey. Should you wish to include the widget in the webmap again, clicking on the widget icon will enable it once more. The widget icon will appear bold again.

Configure Map Widgets

Some widgets have additional configuration options. Widgets that have additional configuration options will have a configure icon below it.

Administrators can customise the available print formats and layouts that will be available to the user in the Print Widget. Tick the boxes of the layouts and formats you wish to make available to the user. Click save to apply the changes. configure print widget
