K2 Geospatial 2023
The project displays in the Projects section. In both display modes, cardboard or list, the menu offers functions for managing projects.
Name
Enter a name for your new project. As with other JMap Cloud resources, the name does not need to be unique. Press the French button if you want to give the project name in another language (English or Spanish).
Default language
Among the available languages, select the one that will be used by default when the requested language is not available or translations are missing.
Public
Map CRS
Select the map reference coordinate system. It determines how data is displayed in map applications. All data using a different projection is converted on the fly to that projection. The default CRS in JMap Cloud is EPSG:3857 - WGS 84 / Pseudo-Mercator, the most common for web mapping applications.
Map unit
Select the map unit. The mapping unit is automatically selected based on the selected CRS.
Display unit
Select the unit used to display map coordinates.
Measurement CRS
Select the coordinate reference system that will be used for calculating measurements. The default CRS is EPSG:4326 - WGS 84, latitude/longitude coordinate system used by global positioning systems (GPS). Distance and area measurements are made using spherical calculations based on the ellipsoid of the projection.
Measurement unit
Unit used to display measurements (distance, area, etc.).
Background color
Default background color of the map.
Selection color
Color of selected objects on the map. This parameter can also be defined for each layer.
Initial rotation
If you want to print a rotation to the map, enter the rotation value in degrees. The rotation is clockwise.
Description
Optional. Enter a description for the new project. This is useful for project management purposes.
Tags
Optional. Add tags that can be used to sort or filter projects. You can create them by writing the text in the range. Once created, they are available for use in all resources (SDS, projects, layers). They appear when you enter label terms.
Optional. Check this setting if you want to make the project public. If you do not check the box, the project is private. The Permissions section describes the details of project access. You must first complete the project creation procedure to then be able to make it public. When the box is checked, the icon is displayed to copy the URL of the JMap Cloud application that opens the project.
