E.g. a vector layer (WFS) containing delimitation of the project area, etc. **Aerial Images**: It includes image layers that contain detailed images for inspection. In a COV context, the layer comprises a set of oblique aerial photographs taken at an angle. {{ :viewers:2019_12_05_11_54_34_v7_cov_user_manual.pdf_adobe_acrobat_reader_dc.jpg?nolink&400 |}} \\ \\ ---- === Layer Management === Layers are, by essence, datasets that can be managed individually. The layer set up is used to better organize projects. Each layer’s visibility and accessibility can be controlled separately by the checkboxes in front. \\ \\ {{ :viewers:2019_12_05_11_59_16_v7_cov_user_manual.pdf_adobe_acrobat_reader_dc.jpg?nolink&400 |}} **Cover map, Terrain, and Thematic layers** These types of a layer can be turned on/off by ticking/unticking the checkboxes left to their layer names \\ \\ {{ :viewers:2019_12_05_12_58_46_v7_cov_user_manual.pdf_adobe_acrobat_reader_dc.jpg?nolink&400 |}} **Aerial Images** Left checkbox: turn on/off the visualization of perspective centers on a cover map Right checkbox: turn on/off a layer for spatial search. ---- ==== Workspace ==== **General workspace set up** \\ A typical MultiViewer workspace consists of cover maps and viewports.\\ \\ Cover maps show where you are and what you see (through OpenStreetMap, orthophoto, 3D models, elevation models, and point clouds) Viewports (there can be max. 4 viewports open at the same time) present details of target area/object for inspection through images where registrations and quick notes can be made. {{ :viewers:hx_mv_04_03.jpg? |}} \\ \\ {{:viewers:2019_12_05_14_43_04_v7_cov_user_manual.pdf_adobe_acrobat_reader_dc.jpg?nolink&40|}} Search: activate spatial search function by entering an address.
