Share

You can use the Mark and share panel to share your current map state (visible layers, extent, zoom level, markers) or code to embed it into a web-site.

Zoom into the part of the map you want to share (you can also create markers in that area, they will also be shared). By clicking on the Mark and share() tool, Mark and share panel should appear in the Left panel.

You can send link to desktop layout or mobile layout, both have the same effect but different layouts.

To send a link with the current state of the map through e-mail enter the target email address in the Send to email field and click on the Send button. This will open up your email client if you have one with the links in the body of the message. You can also send a link through e-mail or an Internet Messenger by copying and sending the content of the first text field of the desktop or mobile layout.

To create an iframe in your HTML page with the current state of the map copy the content of the second text field of the desktop or mobile layout and paste it in your HTML page. Note that this link will be available only when you are logged out. You can change the size of the frame by altering the width and height parameters in the HTML code.
