Map Profiles

A map profile:

  • Is a collection of GIS map services and geocoding services that allow users to connect to the agency’s GIS information providers. The configured GIS services in a map profile provide a mashup or aggregation of map layers.

  • Provides a centralized and streamlined configuration of GIS services. An administrator can define service connection parameters only once within a map profile, and have the ability to assign the same profile to multiple user groups across multiple product integrations.

  • Is assigned to user groups. An administrator can set the availability, visibility, and edit permissions of the map layers to the user group. The permission settings are configured on Integrations > User Groups > Map Layer Settings.
