5. Data sharing and user access
Layers, Folders and Files can be shared with other users and systems. The access level defines which operations can be performed by the person or system with whom data has been shared. The table below lists all access levels (and their meaning) that can be set by the Amin of a Folder, Layer or File.
Access Level | Access Level Number | Meaning |
---|---|---|
View | 100 | Receiver will have access to visualisations of the data. |
View+ | 200 | Receiver will have access to the raw data and is allowed to download it |
Edit | 550 | Receiver will be able to make edits in the viewer. The user can add new features, messages or series data. |
Full View | 600 | Receiver now also has access to explicitly restricted information, such as private properties of features. |
Edit+ | 800 | The receiver can now manage the layer in the settings dashboard. Add timestamps, upload files etc. |
Admin | 1000 | Receiver now has access to the file system itself. The receiver can add new layers, rename layers, move layers to another folder and even trash layers. The only restriction on admin users is that they are not able to permanently delete things. Only the owner of a layer has this privilege and as such all actions of not-owner users can always be undone. |
Layers can be 'geofenced', meaning that the people or systems you are sharing data with can be restricted to certain geographic areas.
