Add data to the map¶

Data and service metadata can be used to dynamically add one or more data layers to the map.

Data¶

Vector or raster metadata can provide an add option if at least one web service layer has been associated. Supported service formats :

Esri Feature Service (EFS)
Esri Map Service (EMS)
Esri Tiled Service (ETS)

Consult the Isogeo online help about service mapping and the service layer/catalogued data association.

If several services / layers are associated with the same data, the widget will suggest which layer to add (EMS, EFS), using the following nomenclature: service name (format) - layer name.

Choosing the layer to add to the map

Once you've made your choice, the layer is added to the map. You can find it in the native Layer and Legend widgets.

Warning

If the service is private and you do not have read rights (Esri Portal rights management), an error message is displayed in red.
Only one layer per metadata record can be added to the map. To select another layer, first remove the first layer from the map.

Geographical services¶

It is also possible to add all the layers of a service directly from the metadata sheet corresponding to the service. Supported formats :

Esri Feature Service (EFS)
Esri Map Service (EMS)
Esri Tiled Service (ETS)
