Additional Layer Geometry

Additional Layer Geometry allows administrators to load addition geometry from a different layer based on the features attributes. This streamlines lookup and selection for users, and provides a visual representation of relevant relationships.

Overview​

Additional Layer Geometry enables you to:

  • Define the conditions under which selection should occur.
  • Automatically select related features behind the scenes when a feature is selected in the main layer, based on the configured conditions in Additional Layer Geometry.

Adding an Additional Layer Geometry​

  1. Open the Layer Gallery in the Maptaskr Power Maps Admin app.

  2. Select the layer and sublayer you want to add additional geometry to.

  3. Select the Additional Layer Geometry tab.

  4. Click Add Layer.

  5. Select the required layer from the Layer Gallery. If it is not listed, confirm that the layer has been added to the gallery.

  6. Complete the condition fields (Field, Comparison, and Value).

  7. Click Save or Save & Close

Performance Consideration

The more geometry you load, the longer the layer load time will be. Using Additional Layer Geometry can decrease the performance of the layer, so only enable the geometry you actually need.

info

The Value field contains an ID because Company Name is a lookup field. Lookup fields require the record ID (not the display name) to function correctly. In this example, when an account is selected, the system uses the account ID to automatically select all related contacts.
