Add layer

Feedback

After selecting the appropriate basemap, you can add layers. MapStudio supports adding SuerMap REST Services, OGC WMTS Services, and OGC WMS Services from the Web and iPortal as layers. It should be noted that the coordinate system of the added layer must be consistent with the coordinate system of the basemap.

Add via URL

Support accessing to layers via the service address, including the REST Map Service and Vector Tile Service published in SuperMap iServer, OGC WMTS Service, OGC WMS Service, and Image Service.

The operation steps are as follows:

  1.  Select "Layer" in the left panel, click "Add layer", and select "URL" tab;

  2. Select the service type, and then fill in the service address in the address input box, as follows:

               SuperMap REST Vector Tile service address: http://<server>:<port>/iserver/services/{component}/restjsr/maps/{mapName}

               SuperMap REST Data Service address: http://<server>:<port>/iserver/services/{dataProvider}/rest/data/datasources/{dataSourceName}

               SuperMap REST Image Service address: http:// <server>:<port>/iserver/services/imageservice-HaiNan/restjsr/collections/{collectionid}

                                                         http(s)://<server>:<port>/iserver/services/{MapName}/wms130/China

                 Note: If you add a WMS Service from other platforms, the address must be able to correctly obtain the Capabilities document of the service.

                                                           https:// <server>:<port>/iserver/services/map-world/wmts-china

                 Note: If you add a WMTS Service from other platforms, ess must be able to correctly obtain the Capabilities document of the service, such as http(s)://<server>:<port>/wmts?SERVICE=WMTS&VERSION=1.0.0&REQUEST=GetCapabilities。

  1.  If the service is secured, you need to check the "A token is required to access this service" and enter the access token;

  2. For the SuperMap REST Map Service, the layer will be added in the form of vector tiles by default. After adding, the layer style can be modified. If you do not need to modify the layer style, uncheck "Add as vector tiles" and the map will be added as a raster layer. In addition, if the map service you access comes from map tile packages such as UGCV5, SMTiles, etc., you can only add layers in raster tiles; if you are adding vector tile services, you must add them in vector tiles.

  3.  Click the "Add to map" button to complete the operation of adding a layer.
