GIS Map Setup

After map services are configured with Lucity, an agency must create a map in the Lucity Administration Tool by layering map services.

The Map Setup tool enables administrators to define maps and assign them to different groups of users. The process is used to create maps for the Lucity Web Map, Lucity GIS Viewer, and for Lucity Mobile - Map Mode.

How To Add or Edit a Map

In the Lucity Administration Tool, select GIS > Map Setup from the main menu. The map setup appears:
The left side of the dialog displays all available maps. Click the Add Map Setup or select a map and click Edit Map Setup buttons to open the GIS Map Edit screen.
The Map Editing tool will open.
- Enter a unique name in the Name field.
- Under Lucity applications that can use this map select Web & Mobile, or Web only.
- Check the Use as Default Map box to make this the default map.
- Set the Geocoding Url. Enter a URL or path here if the geocoding service used for this map will be different than the one entered in the Default Geocoding Url field. The Default Url is set in Lucity Administration under System > Settings on the GIS Web tab.
- Select the Redlining layers if you use redlining in your map.
- Use the map services listed in the Available Web Services and the Available Editable Services to populate the Services to Display in Map grid.
- Modify the service settings in the Services to Display in Map grid.
  Note: Lucity data in all layers will be recognized by the Webmap and Mobile Maps tools, as long as the aliases are set up correctly.
Click Close to return to the Map Setup screen.
Once the maps have been defined, click Save on the Map Setup screen.
Assign the map to the desired user groups.

How To Add or Edit a Viewer Map

- Under Lucity applications that can use this map select GIS Viewer.
- Check the Use as Default Map box to make this the default map.
  - There can only be one default map. If more than one map exists, the Viewer will ask which one to use. The default map will appear at the top of the list.
- Set the Geocoding Url. Enter a URL or path here if the geocoding service used for this map will be different than the one entered in the Default Geocoding Url field. The Default Url is set in Lucity Administration under System > Settings on the GIS Web tab.
  - The Geocoding Url can be either a URL for a geocoding service OR the path to a geocoding package (.gcpk).
- Use the map services listed in the Available Web Services and the Available Local Services to populate the Services to Display in Map grid.
- Modify the service settings in the Services to Display in Map grid.
  Note: The Lucity GIS Viewer will recognize Lucity data in all layers, as long as the aliases are set up correctly.
Click Close to return to the Map Setup screen.
Assign the map to the desired user groups.
Note: All maps that are marked as GIS Viewer will be visible to all Lucity GIS Viewer users.

To assign maps to user groups:

Select a map in one of the map grids list on the left side of the dialog.
Highlight one or more groups in the Available Groups list on the right side of the dialog.
Note: The only groups that have been assigned as a default group in the Lucity Security Program will appear in the Available Groups list.
Click the Assign Maps to Groups button.
The groups currently assigned to each map will be displayed in the Assigned Groups list.
Note: While each map can be assigned to multiple user groups, each group can only be assigned to one map. So, if the Administrator group is assigned to the Water Map, and later assigned to the Traffic Map, the Administrator group will have access to the Traffic Map only.

To remove a map from a group:

Highlight a map in the Available Maps list.
Highlight a group in the Assigned Groups list.
Click the Un-Assign Map button.
Click Save to save any changes.
