You configure the settings of the Map Manager role from the
Roles view of the System task in Security
Center
Config
Tool.
Map Manager - Properties tab
Click the Properties tab to change the default settings for this
role, and configure the external resources managed by this role, such as the map providers
and the KML objects.
Map providers:
List of third-party map providers (
GIS) that you
are licensed to use.
Map layers:
List of imported KML objects that can be displayed on any georeferenced map. Each KML
object corresponds to a distinct map layer that the Security
Desk users can choose to show or
hide.
Cache location:
The cache is a folder where the map tiles are stored. When
you create maps from images
files, the role generates a set of small images, called map tiles, for
each zoom level at which you need to view the map. The larger the map scale, the more
map tiles the role must generate. The default folder is
C:\ProgramData\Security Center\Maps.
Port:
HTTP port used by the Map Manager to communicate with client applications.
(Default=8012).
Default map:
The system default map, also known as the global
default map, is used when a user has not configured a personalized default map.
You can only set the global default map after creating your first map.
Map Manager - Resources tab
Click the Resources tab to
configure the servers assigned to this role. The Map Manager role does
not require a database.
