Context

In MapStore the Application Context Manager is an administrative tool designed to build and configure MapStore’s viewers: the administrator is able to configure a custom MapStore viewer by choosing:

  • The name of the context (the viewer will have its own specific URL)

  • The default map configuration and map contents (like layers, backgrounds, catalogs, CRSs etc)

  • The set of plugins available for the viewer

The Admin can access the Application Context Manager through the button available in the Manager option menu in Homepage.
