Configuring Leaflet Maps
The following options can be configured to add tile sources and customise how geolocation data is displayed.
$geo_leaflet_maps_sources |
Set to false by default If enabled this lets client use a number of map tile providers however most of these are subject to strict usage terms, so unless you are using ResourceSpace for personal use these should not be enabled If this option is enabled please refer to /include/map_basemaps to see the additional available configuration options that can be used to enable/disable the specific map providers. |
$map_usgstopo $map_usgsimagery $map_usgsimagerytopo |
Enables USGS provided public tile servers. TRUE by default. This is a subset of the sources included by leaflet maps and these options are only used if $geo_leaflet_maps_sources = true |
$geo_leaflet_sources | An array of tile servers that you have access to. A single source with three variants is configured as below and any additional sources must follow the same syntactical structure. Refer to lib/leaflet_plugins/leaflet-providers-1.10.2/leaflet-providers.js to see how this has been translated here.
$geo_leaflet_sources[] = array( "name" => "The National Map", "code" => "USGSTNM", "url" => "https://basemap.nationalmap.gov/arcgis/rest/services/USGSTopo/MapServer/tile/{z}/{y}/{x}", "maxZoom" => 8, "detectRetina" => true, "attribution" => "U.S. Department of the Interior | U.S. Geological Survey", "default" => true, "extension" => "jpeg", "variants" => array( "USTopo" => array( "name" => "US Topographic", ), "USImagery" => array( "name" => "US Imagery", "url" => 'https://basemap.nationalmap.gov/arcgis/rest/services/USGSImageryOnly/MapServer/tile/{z}/{y}/{x}', ), "USImageryTopo" => array( "name" => "US Imagery &ographic", "url" => 'https://basemap.nationalmap.gov/arcgis/rest/services/USGSImageryTopo/MapServer/tile/{z}/{y}/{x}', ), ) ); |
$search_map_max_results | Limit number of search results that can be displayed in map view. Set to 0 for no limit |
$map_zoomslider | Set to true by default. Use zoom slidebar instead of standard +/- buttons |
$map_zoomnavbar | Set to true by default. Show zoom history navigation bar? |
$map_default_cache | Set to true by default. Cache default basemap layer tiles in the browser (recommended to reduce tile server load) |
$map_layer_cache | Set to true by default. Cache all map layer tiles in the browser |
$map_retina | Set to false by default. Enable retina display tiles (four tiles of half size and a larger zoom level in place of one to utilize higher resolution) |
$map_default | Set to 'USGSTNM.USTopo' by default. Leaflet default basemap - use the name.variant format as per your configured $geo_leaflet_sources |
$marker_resource_preview | Set to true by default. Open resource when clicking on a search result marker, instead of a small resource tooltip |
$marker_metadata_field | Not set by default. Custom map marker coloring based on a selected numeric value metadata field, instead of coloring by resource type, enable by setting a metadata field ID and descriptive text value. |
$marker_metadata_array | Only used if $marker_metadata_field is set to a valid field. Custom map marker coloring based on a selected numeric value metadata field, instead of coloring by resource type. Enable by setting a metadata field ID and descriptive text value. Example below shows an array of minimum and maximum numeric values for the markers on the map, with up to eight marker pairs (min >=, max <=) when using custom marker coloring.
$marker_metadata_array = [ 0 => ['min' => 1935, 'max' => 1939], # Blue marker 1 => ['min' => 1940, 'max' => 1949], # Red marker 2 => ['min' => 1950, 'max' => 1959], # Green marker 3 => ['min' => 1960, 'max' => 1969], # Orange marker 4 => ['min' => 1970, 'max' => 1979], # Yellow marker 5 => ['min' => 1980, 'max' => 1989], # Black marker 6 => ['min' => 1990, 'max' => 1999], # Grey marker 7 => ['min' => 2000, 'max' => 2010] # Violet marker ]; |
$map_kml | Set to false by default. Show a KML overlay on the map? |
$map_kml_file | Used if $map_kml =true. Set to empty string ('') by default. # Place KML file in ../filestore/system/, example: overlay.kml |
Standard map tile options |
|
$geo_tile_caching | Set to true by default. Cache map tiles on your ResourceSpace server? |
$geo_tile_cache_directory | Optional path to tile cache directory. Useful if you are running multiple ResourceSpace instances |
$geo_tile_cache_lifetime* | How long will tiles be cached on the local server? Set to one year by default Unless absolutely necessary this should be a long period to avoid too many requests to the tile server $geo_tile_cache_lifetime = 60*60*24*365; |
$hide_geolocation_panel | Set to true to hide the geolocation panel by default and replace with a link |
$geo_locate_collection | Set to true to add a collection action that will show all resource geolocation data on a map |
$geolocation_default_bounds* | Set the default center and zoom for the map view when searching or selecting a new location. # For example, to specify the USA use: $geolocation_default_bounds="-10494743.596017,4508852.6025659,4"; # For example, to specify Utah, use $geolocation_default_bounds="-12328577.96607,4828961.5663655,6"; |
$view_mapheight | Height of map in pixels on resource view page |
$geo_search_restrict | An array that specifies a list of upper/lower longitude/latitude bounds. These are areas that will be excluded from geographical search results. Areas are defined using values in the following sequence:- southwest lat, southwest long, northeast lat, northeast long An example is as below $geo_search_restrict=array ( array(50,-3,54,3,) # Example omission zone array(-10,-20,-8,-18), # Example omission zone 2 array(1,1,2,2) # Example omission zone 3 ); |
