The web map display is an interactive capability, so there is no specific workflow required. The following is one way to approach working with web map displays.
Display the default web map, using the webmap
function. You can also
specify a base layer (also called a basemap) when you
create the web map with the webmap
function.
Select a base layer map from the Layer Manager. The toolbox supports over a dozen base layers from popular web map providers. You can also add custom base layers.
Navigate around the web map, using the zoom tool and moving the map
interactively (panning). You can also specify the visible portion of the web
map programmatically using the wmlimits
, wmzoom
, and wmcenter
functions.
Select additional layers to overlay on your web map from the overlay
layers listed in the Layer Manager. You can also create overlay layers using
the wmline
, wmmarker
, and wmpolygon
functions. Use
wmremove
to remove layers that
you’ve added.
Print the map, using the wmprint
function.
Close the map, using the wmclose
function.
