The Tile Map Widget can be configured to use multiple base layer tilesets and multiple overlay tilesets, including tilesets served up by the AppBoard server removing the need for external Internet access.

Viewer clients connected to AppBoard will fetch the tilesets from the AppBoard server, to which they must already have network access.


Importing Offline Data

Perform the following steps to import offline tile data into AppBoard for use in the Tile Map Widget:

  1. Open a terminal window (i.e., CMD/shell prompt)
  2. Shutdown the AppBoard server
  3. Change directory to [Install_Home]/server/bin/
  4. Run the following command:
    • UNIX: ./portal.sh FilesImport -jar <OfflineTilePackage>
    • Windows: portal.bat FilesImport -jar <OfflineTilePackage>
