Export Profile

Choose one of the configured export profiles from the drop-down list.

 

Export File Type

Depending on the selected export profile, choose the desired export file type.

 

Export Projection (Optional)

This option is only available if one or more projections have been configured in the WebOffice 10.9 R4 project configuration. If available, the user can select a specific projection. If the selected projection is different than the projection used by the WebOffice 10.9 R4 project, the data export will be reprojected to the specified projection.

Note: A default projection can be specified in WebOffice extract server.

 

Export Data

In order to export the data, the user has three different options in the WebOffice html client:

Export the current extent:
Simply zoom to desired map extent and click on the button Export Current Extent in the data export form.

Export an extent defined by a bounding box:

Export an extent defined by a custom polygon:
The last option is to create an arbitrary polygon. Every left mouse click adds a polygon vertex, finish the polygon with a double click or click the button Export. After releasing the mouse button the export URL will automatically pop up. In case a snap layer is configured, it can also be used to export data with high accuracy. Use the pointsnap as described in chapter Measure/Markup.

Note: The data export tool requires a WebOffice 10.9 R4 application with activated WebOffice usermanagement, where an Application Profile has to be configured that includes the WebOffice - Export (Standard) Application Role and is assigned to the group who uses the WebOffice 10.9 R4 project.

Note: See chapter WebOffice extract server for details about the tool configuration in WebOffice author.
