Projection

Specifies the projection of the bounding box of the extent. This is fixed to 'EPSG:4326'. This means that the corner coordinates are always given in latitude and longitude coordinates on the WGS84 reference ellipsoid.

Min

coordinates (Lon/Lat) of the lower left corner of the bounding box.

Max

Coordinates (Lon/Lat) of the upper right corner of the bounding box.

Tooltip

Text that is displayed when the mouse pointer is positioned over the layer in the Content section.

Icon

URL of an icon that is displayed next to the layer name in the Content section. Base64 strings are currently not supported as icons.

URL to additional information

URL to additional information linked to by in the Content section.

Provider

References the name of the provider and year of data collection of the underlying data, as well as a URL for the source annotation. The name is displayed in the VC Map in the attributions section.

Name (ID)

Unique name (identifier) of the included layer.

Title

Display title of the included layer. Used for display in other elements that reference the layer (e.g. content, …​). For translatable titles keys from Internationalization can be used.

URL

The URL pointing to the layer’s data source.

Feature Type

Name(s) of the feature type(s) used in the request to the server.

Feature namespace

The namespace URI used for features. Unique mapping of a feature type to a namespace. In the form:xmlns(prefix,escaped_url).

Feature prefix

The prefix for the feature namespace.

Display in overview map

Uses the layer as a map base for the 2D overview map.

The overview map locates the current view in a larger area and shows the current camera position. It is used for better orientation in the VC Map.

Exclusive groups

This can be used to define groups within which exclusivity applies. For this purpose, the same group identifier must be assigned for two or more levels. If a level from an exclusivity group is activated, all other levels with the same group identifier are deactivated.

Show in

Defines in which maps the layer is displayed. If no map is selected, the layer will be shown in all supported maps by default.

Hide objects

A list of IDs from this or another object layer can be specified, which will be hidden when the layer is activated. This option can be used, for example, to hide certain existing buildings within a planning layer or when activated from one planning layer in another.

Feature Info

This can be used to select the type of display of feature information in the info tool, e.g. tabular display, embedded display or popup display (balloon). Types configured in the Feature Info section are available for selection.

Z-Index

The z-index determines the display order. If one layer has a higher value relative to another, it overlaps them in the display.

Height mode

Defines the height mode used. On Terrain' places 2D data on the terrain. 'Relative to terrain' interprets heights as values above the terrain. 'Absolute' is the 3D elevation above the reference ellipsoid.

Height above ground

A vertical offset to the terrain. Can be used with altitudeMode 'Relative to terrain'.

Ground level

Ground height level of the objects.

Scale by distance

Gets or sets near and far scaling properties of objects based on the object’s distance from the camera. Interpolation of the objects scale between the provided distances. Outside of these ranges the object’s scale remains clamped to the nearest bound. If unchecked, no scaling is applied.

Eye offset

Gets or sets the 3D Cartesian offset applied to objects in eye coordinates. Eye coordinates is a left-handed coordinate system, where x points towards the viewer’s right, y points up, and z points into the screen. Eye coordinates use the same scale as world coordinates, which is typically meters. An eye offset is commonly used to arrange multiple billboards or objects at the same position, e.g., to arrange a billboard above its corresponding 3D model.

Allow picking

Defines, if the features are pickable, e.g. for enabling Feature Info.

Classification

Defines what is affected by the classification, i.e. only 'Objects', only 'Terrain' or 'Objects & Terrain' are classified. The default value when adding a layer is "none".

Extrusion

Defines the default extruded height of objects. Only supported with altitude mode 'absolute'.

Storeys above ground

Number of storeys above ground. Requires either 'extrusion' or 'storey height(s)'.

Storey height(s) above ground

Values for storey height(s). Beginning from the ground floor, if multiple are provided. Last entry will be repeated, if less 'storey height(s)' than 'storeys' are provided or until 'extruded height' is reached.

Skirts

Defines the default extrusion (depth) of objects below ground.

Storeys below ground

Number of storeys below ground. Similar behaviour as 'storeys above ground'.

Storey height(s) below ground

Values for storey height(s). Beginning from the first basement floor, if multiple are provided. Last entry will be repeated, if less 'storey height(s)' than 'storeys' are provided or until 'skirts height' is reached.

Model URL

Defines the default model applied to point objects. Supported format is GLTF ('.gtlf' or '.glb').

Model scale

Defines the default model scale in x, y and z. Values greater than 1.0 increase the size of the model, values less than 1.0 decrease.

Model heading

Heading is the rotation about the negative z-axis.

Model pitch

Pitch is the rotation about the negative y-axis.

Model role

Roll is the rotation about the positive x-axis.

Base URL

A base URL to resolve relative model URLs against.

Available Styles

Select all styles which should be made available in the VC Map in the Content section via the style selector .

Default Style

Select the style in which the objects will be displayed if not selected.

Style on selection

Select the style in which the objects will be displayed if selected. Expects a vector style.

Projection

Specifies the projection of the bounding box of the extent. This is fixed to 'EPSG:4326'. This means that the corner coordinates are always given in latitude and longitude coordinates on the WGS84 reference ellipsoid.

Min

Max

Coordinates (Lon/Lat) of the upper right corner of the bounding box.

URL

The URL pointing to the data source of the layer.

Uses the layer as a map base for the 2D overview map.

The overview map locates the current view in a larger area and shows the current camera position. It is used for better orientation in the VC Map.

Request vertex normals

Select whether vertex normals are to be requested. The vertex normals are needed to enable correct lighting.

Request water mask

Specifies whether a water mask should be requested from the server. Water mask data is appended to the standard data only if the client requests the water mask and the server provides a water mask.

Exclusive groups

This can be used to define groups within which exclusivity applies. For this purpose, the same group identifier must be assigned for two or more levels. If a level from an exclusivity group is activated, all other levels with the same group identifier are deactivated.
