Managing layers in a project

The layers of a project are displayed in the Layers section, which may be accessed from the JMap Admin project configuration interface. In the List tab, the table shows basic information about each layer of the project. When you click on the name of a layer, a details section displays. The Hierarchy tab displays the groups and subgroups with the layers that compose them. The tasks you can perform from this tab are detailed in the Organizing Layers section.
