Workgroup Integration
People involved in this work group:
Demo
The following demonstation shows
- left: a basic ol-client which is generated by Mapbender and which uses the WMS layers which are configured through Mapbender administration
- right: Mapbender GUI which enables to scroll whith the mouse wheel (Firefox only)
Digitizing
Mapbender already has a comprehensive digitizing interface and OGC WFS management interface. We have to find out how much OpenLayers can do for us and what meta information we can provide to OpenLayers classes to use Mapbender's user managed WFS services.
Activating OpenLayers client in Mapbender
- Edit Gui Elements openlayers and openlayers_layerSwitch
- openlayers: the OpenLayers itself. For displaying the OpenLayers client set ON/OFF to 1.
- openlayers_switch: Ability to switch between WMS layers. Set ON/OFF to 1. WMS configured in 'WMS GUI settings' can be handled with this Element
- WMS configuration as usual in 'Configure WMS Access' --> WMS GUI settings
- If you only want to show OpenLayers client, disable all elements excepting 'openlayers' and 'openlayers_layerSwitch' in 'Edit GUI elements'
