How do I add a layer to my map?
A layer allows you to define and highlight a territory, displayed over the base map.
To be able to add it to a map, you must have created it beforehand as a resource.
🧩 Add a layer to my map
- Go to your map
- Go to the "Formatting" menu, then to the "Custom layer" section
- Click on "Manage layers"
- Click on "Add from editor", at the top of the page
- Select one or more resources that you want to add from the list
- Configure the options for your layer:
- Altitude: altitude of the layer for multi-floor maps
- Maximum zoom: maximum zoom level at which the layer is visible
- Minimum zoom: minimum zoom level at which the layer is visible
- Click action:
- Ignore: no action
- Popup: a label displays with the configured text
- Tooltip: similar functionality to popup that requires more information
- Zoom: a zoom is performed on the concerned area
- Hover action:
- Ignore: no action
- Highlight: highlighting when hovering the mouse over the area
📌 Note:
For "Pop up" and "Tooltip" click actions, you can customize the description to display by clicking on "Customize template".
Then enter your text, then click on "Save".
- Click on "Save", at the top right of the page to finalize adding the layer to the map
📌 Note:
Layers created in the "My resources" section can be attached to one or more maps. You can therefore easily reuse an already configured layer.
