Several tools are available in JMap NG to display information about map elements.
Information reports present information from the layer or from other data sources that relate to layer elements.
They can be very simple (a PDF document) or they can contain maps, graphics and photos, information which can be static or dynamic, i.e. which can be updated in near real time, depending on report configuration. Tools may also be available to export information to other formats. The JMap administrator can configure several reports for the same layer.
You can view the information report of a single map element or a set of elements issue from a search based on the values attributes of the elements or from the interactive selection on the map.
The icon in a tooltip or in the card of a map element selected from an interactive selection or search, indicates that the layer has at least one report of information.
