GIS Map Layer Manager

Click on the Map Layer Manager menu to browse all the map layers currently loaded into the GIS application.

 

Map layers are categorized into three groups: Business Layers, Feature Layers and Base Layers.

 

Business layers represent CIPAce entity records associated with one or several location shape on the map.

 

Feature layers are shape files/feature services loaded from ArcGIS server, which usually contain elementary geo-data sets such as street center lines, manholes, water bodies, etc.

 

Base layers are image map services loaded from public map service providers, such as Google Maps, or from a particular client.

 

In the Map Layer Manager, you can:

 

Toggle the visibility of each layer by clicking on the On/Off icon in front of each layer.

Expand/Collapse the layer groups (Business/Feature/Base Layers) by clicking on the Expand/Collapse icon in front of each layer group name.

Set the opacity of a layer by clicking on the Opacity icon at the end of each layer/layer group if available.
