Map Service Configuration

After an administrator has created map packages (or online services), Lucity must be configured to recognize them. This section explains how to add a local map package to the GIS Map Services form.

How To Configure a Map Package

1. Open the Lucity Administration tool and go to GIS > Map Services.

   

   1. Click Add Map Service...
   2. Fill in the Name field. This name will identify the map service when it is added to a Lucity map, or viewed in one of the Lucity mapping products.
   3. In the URL field, enter the path to the map package.
      • The map package should be stored on a network that users of the Viewer have access to.
      • The map packages have file names ending in .mpk or .tpk.
   4. Enter a value in the Order field. (Map services are layered based on this field. A lower number represents a lower layer. 0 is the bottom layer.)
   5. Ignore the Base Map field. The Viewer does not use it.
   6. If the file is a tiled map package (.tpk), check the Tiled? box to indicate the layer is a tiled service.
   7. Click Save.
2. After all map packages have been added, go to the System > Settings > GIS Web tab in the Lucity Administration tool.
   1. In the URL for Geocoding Service... field, enter the path to a geocoding package (.gcpk) or the URL to a geocoding service. This will be the default geocoding service for all of the Lucity mapping applications.
   2. Click Save.
