Geolocation

Property

Description

Geographic Transformation Code/String

Geographic transformation code. Codes are listed in <ArcGIS_Desktop_Installation_Folder>\Documentation\geographic_transformations.pdf or you may use the SynerGIS Projection Helper

Note: Please also consider to set the proper Transformation on the main map service.

Show initial Position

Shows the current user location as center of the initial map (true) or not (false). Note that if chosen "true", the initial extent setting from the project configuration setting will be overruled.

Initial Scale

Scale for the map if the tool should zoom to the user location initially.

Maximum delay for initial query?

Maximum delay (in milliseconds) for the initial location query. If the answer is not received in this time the project starts with the default extent of the project configuration.

Show Marker?

Defines if a marker should show the initial position or if the initial extent is displayed (if configured) without showing a marker symbol.

Precision Treshold

If the precision [m] of the current position is worse (greater then) the configured threshold then the map center will not get repositioned to the geolocation coordinates. The user will get a notification that the geolocation can not be displayed due to inadequate precision instead.

Show Accuracy Circle?

Defines if the geolocation accuracy should get displayed as circle. Display as a circle is not useful for geographic projection systems and for maps in map units other than meters.

Write Accuracy?

Defines if the geolocation accuracy should get written on the map at the current location.

Update interval

Defines the interval (in seconds) the location is updated if the tool is in tracking mode. If '0' is configured, the tracking mode will be deactivated.

Note: This function is supported by WebOffice core, WebOffice flex Client, WebOffice mobile and WebOffice map widget.

Note: The map margin for the WebOffice mobile client, that is used for centering the position in the map, can be set in C:\Tomcat\webapps\<WebOffice application>\client_mobile\jss\synergis_weboffice.xml in the parameter location.map.panLimit, the default is 10 %.

Cache position (mobile Client)?

Specifies if the last valid position is cached and used, if the next position queries provide an invalid or inaccurate position information (mobile client only).

Note: Only WebOffice flex Client, WebOffice mobile client.

Required Position Accuracy [m]?

Specifies a required accuracy for the position.  The client queries for a position, until this configured accuracy limit is met, or the maximum wait time is exceeded. The default value of 0m means no polling, the first received position is used.

Note: Only WebOffice flex Client, WebOffice mobile client and WebOffice map widget.

Maximum Wait Time [s]?

Specifies a maximum wait tome to achieve the required position accuracy.

Note: Only WebOffice flex Client, WebOffice mobile client and WebOffice map widget.

Use tool?

Specify whether this Tool is available in the WebOffice client (true) or not (false).

HTML client disabled?

Specifies whether the tool is disabled (true) in the WebOffice html client or not (No).

CORE client disabled?

Specifies whether the tool is disabled (true) in the WebOffice core client or not (false).

FLEX client disabled?

Specifies whether the tool is disabled (true) in the WebOffice flex client or not (false).

Property

Description

Projection ID/String

Provide EPSG code if available. Provide projection parameters otherwise (copy and paste from the .prj file recommended).

Name

Projection name

Geographic Transformation Code/String

Geographic transformation code. Can be reviewed in ArcGIS_Desktop_Installation_Folder\Documentation\geographic_transformations.pdf. If a custom transformation is used, the transformation string with parameters can be used. Copy and paste from the .gtf file is recommended.

Result precision

Specifies how many digits after the comma should be used for display of double values.

Output format

Define output format for coordinates

-'decimal' output as double. The number of decimal places is determined by the 'Result precision'.

-'degree' output in degrees (DD°MM'SS.NN''). The number of decimal places for the seconds is determined by the 'Result precision'.

-'degree_decimal_minutes' output in degrees and minutes but without seconds (DD°MM.NN'). The number of decimal places for the minutes is determined by the 'Result precision'. (Hint: a higher number of decimal places than in format 'degree' is required to achieve a comparable precision.)

<latitude longitude> in clipboard?

Specifies whether the coordinates get formatted <latitude longitude> ('Yes') or <longitude latitude> ('No') in the clipboard. Only affects geographic coordinate systems (e.g. WGS84).

Projection category

Group category for projection lists displayed for the following tools: Search/reproject coordinates.
