To open a JMap Cloud project in QGIS:
Click on Web → JMap Cloud → Open project to open the load project dialog.
Select a JMap Cloud project to open. You will see all the projects you can access in your organization.
When opening JMap Cloud projects, the plugin gets all information about the project: layer data, styles, layer order, layer groups, etc. The resulting project in QGIS is identical to the project in JMap Cloud.
When opening a project, you can select one of these 3 options:
Default: The project layer data will be loaded in vector tiles and/or GeoJSON, as defined in the JMap Cloud project.
All in GeoJSON: The project layer data will be loaded only as GeoJSON.
All in Vector Tiles: The project layer data will be loaded only as vector tiles.
WMS/WMTS layers can have sublayers. QGIS can’t get all the sublayers in one raster file layer. For this reason, the plugin creates a group of layers that contains all sublayers of a WMS/WMTS layer.
QGIS vector tile layers don't support rule-based styles. For this reason, the plugin creates a group of layers that contain one vector tile layer for each style rule of this layer.
If a vector layer data can be modified according to your permissions, this layer will be served as GeoJSON vector layer by default, otherwise, it will be served as MVT. The reason is that vector layers can be modified in QGIS while MVT cannot, but are faster for rendering.
All layers are dependent on the JMap Cloud API endpoints. This means that the layer won’t work if the user is not logged in or there is no internet connection.
The plugin can use the plugin Layer tree icon for improving the icons of the legend.
Some icons have been changed to make the legend more readable:
Created by the plugin
Replaced by
Raster layer groups
MVT layer groups
MVT layer
Legend folder
Icons are set to default icons if the Layer tree icon plugin is not installed.
