In this section you will learn how to set up a project or change existing project configurations.

Defining a new project

Note: Reading this section will help you to create new projects. The spatial extended coordinate systems are defined.

Select New Project in the quick list section Project to open the dialog box for setting up a new project.

The form contains boxes for entering all necessary project settings (name, project area, coordinate system, and so on). It is divided into four sections, which are explained in the following table.

Section
Description
Project Specification Type in a new project name.
  • Is base project box is checked by default, that means your project is a stand-alone project. If the project is part of a merged one, then uncheck the box.
Coordinate System
  • Project CS: Defines the project coordinate system. It has to be a projected coordinate system, that means your coordinates are in metrical unit. So for example if your data is stored in the database with WGS84 coordinates, you have to choose here a projected coordinate system (for exmaple UTM) and set the coordinate system in the Data Source options in Single Feature to WGS84.
  • Display CS: Defines the display coordinate system for the GeoMedia Smart Client; this may vary from the Project CS and is independent of the data coordinate system.

Click Add CS to define a new coordinate system. Make sure to have a corresponding CSF file (GeoMedia coordinate system file) available. This list of coordinate systems will be available whenever creating a new project or editing an existing one. It is not necessarily the list of coordinate systems that is available to the client. <br\>

Note: If the EPSG code is set, be sure it's the correct one.

Click Datei:Edit cs.png to edit the selected coordinate system.

Project Area Define the minimum bounding rectangle of your project by inserting the maximum extent of your data.
  • East(Min): Most western point of you bounding box or X-value of the lower-left corner
  • North(Min): Most southern point of your bounding box or Y-value of the lower-left corner
  • East(Max): Most eastern point of your bounding box or X-value of the upper-right corner
  • North(Max): Most northern point of your bounding box or Y-value of the upper-right corner


Click Save to save your settings.

Click Delete to delete the project.


Note: The sections marked with an asterisk (*) are mandatory for setting up a new project. If the fields are empty, the creation of a new project will fail with an error message.

Modifying an existing project

Note: Here you can modify all previously defined settings for the selected project.


There are two ways to get the form for selecting a project:

  • Use the quick link section Project and click Projects.
  • Navigate to the basic workflow (see following figure) and select the entry Projects.

Datei:Basic workflow.png


You will be directed to a list with all projects already entered into the underlying database. By double clicking on a specific project, you will be forwarded to the data sheet with all information to the current project settings and the possibility to edit them. If the list of projects gets too long, you may use filtering to quickly find the needed project(s). To use filtering, expand the filter by clicking on in the upper-right corner of the header.

Filter: The filter looks as follows

  • Type in the name of the project in the section Name.
    Note: You will not need a wild-card if you want to search, for example, for projects with specific letters.
  • By clicking Apply Filter you execeute the filter. As a result, you will see only the filtered projects in the list.
  • Click Reset Filter to cancel the filter.

Additionally, you may sort the projects by name. Click on the list header Name to sort alphabetically. If you want to reset the sorting, you have to click Datei:Reset sorting.png.

General Project Information

All settings previously made for a project may be modified here. The form corresponds to the form where the project was defined.

The form contains boxes for entering all necessary project settings (name, project area, coordinate system, and so on). It is divided into four sections, which are explained in the following table.


Section
Description
Project Specification Type in a new project name.
  • Is base project box is checked by default, that means your project is a stand-alone project. If the project is part of a merged one, then uncheck the box.
Coordinate System
  • Project CS: Defines the project coordinate system. It has to be a projected coordinate system, that means your coordinates are in metrical unit. So for example if your data is stored in the database with WGS84 coordinates, you have to choose here a projected coordinate system (for exmaple UTM) and set the coordinate system in the Data Source options in Single Feature to WGS84.
  • Display CS: Defines the display coordinate system for the GeoMedia Smart Client; this may vary from the Project CS and is independent of the data coordinate system.

Click Add CS to define a new coordinate system. Make sure to have a corresponding CSF file (GeoMedia coordinate system file) available. This list of coordinate systems will be available whenever creating a new project or editing an existing one. It is not necessarily the list of coordinate systems that is available to the client. <br\>

Legend of the project

Themes are similar to topics. They are used to group feature classes according to a logical relationship. Feature classes in GeoMedia Smart Client may only be used by the client if they are assigned to a theme. For example you create a theme named Infrastructure. Then you can for example assign features like streets, churches and so on to this theme. If you start GeoMedia Smart Client you can see the themes you have created in the administrator in your legend and if some features are assigned to the themes you can open the themes and then see all the assigned features.

Click on the tab Legend to define your themes in the legend.

<br\> <br\> To the top

Add Theme

Add a theme by clicking Add Theme. A popup window will be opened.

Datei:Thema definieren.png

Type in your specific theme name and decide if you want to set your theme as Is closed or as Is hidden.

Theme options

Is closed The client will be able to see the entry of the theme in the client's legend but will not be able to see the individual associated feature classes.However, symbology and all functions of the features in the map will not be affected.
Is hidden A theme will not be shown in the legend at all, but the feature classes within that theme are displayed in the map and hold all defined functionality.

<br\> <br\> Click Save to save the new theme. Click Cancel to return to the previous form.

Add Feature to Theme

Note: To be able to add features to a theme, you need to define features to the project in advance.


Adding feature(s) to a theme check the boxes of the needed feature(s) on the left side. Then click on the theme name on the left side (NOT on the checkbox), so the name gets covered by a orange buffer, and click Assign. So the feature(s) on the left side gets on the theme on the right side.

Datei:Legend.PNG

Note: One feature cannot be added to two themes at the same time. To add a feature to more than one theme, you need to add it twice into the feature list.

Removing Themes or Features

To delete a theme, click on the name of the theme, so the font is covered by a orange buffer and then click on Edit theme. Then a new window opens (the same as the first figure of this section), where you can edit the name or set the theme as closed or hidden. In this window is a button Delete too, which deletes the theme.

To remove a feature class from a theme, check the box in front of the name and click Remove.

<br\> <br\> To the top

Adjusting themes or features

In the legend panel it is also possible to move feature classes to another theme. At first you have to click the checkbox of the desired feature class, then click on the name of a theme and click Move to.

It is also possible to switch the order of the themes or features. At first you click the checkbox in front of a theme/feature, then click on the name of the theme/feature after which you want to have the theme/feature and at the end you click MoveAfter. With this step the first chosen theme/feature gets located after the second one.

Overview map of a project

In GeoMedia Smart Client, up to seven features may define a map overview. The overview provides you with a project view and a rectangle where the actual map view is in relation to the project boundaries. The overview dynamically updates as the display scale changes in the main map window.

The features added to the overview map are displayed in a lower quality in the separate overview window.

To add features to the overview, click on a feature entry on the left, then click on the name of the overview (so the name is covered with an orange buffer) and click Assign.

Datei:Overview.PNG

Note: To be able to add features to an overview, you need to define features to the project in advance.

To remove a feature class from the overview, click on the checkbox in front of the feature class name, then click Remove.

Projectview

In GeoMedia Smart Client project views can be defined. Project views specify certain settings for a view in the map window. It is only valid for the features it is set for.

<br\> <br\> To the top

Add Projectview

Use the form on the tab Projectview to define a project view the following way:

Datei:Createprojectview.png


  • Enter the necessary information. The following table describes the input fields:
Field
Description
Name Name of the project view.
Note: The name must be unique since existing project views cannot be overwritten.
Is restricted This box will take effect at your printing. If you don't check the box, then you are able to print every visible feature in the project. If you check the box your printing will only contains these features which are assigned to your project view. That means you have three features in your project view and set four features visible in the GeoMedia Smart Client. If the box is restricted is empty, you will able to print all seven features. If you check the box, then only the three features of your project view will be printed.
Scale 1: Scale of the project view the map will be set to
Center(East) X-coordinate of the view's center point
Center(North) Y-coordinate of the view's center point


  • Adding feature classes to the designated project view is the same procedure as before. Select a feature on the left side, click on the projectview on the right side (so the name is covered with an orange buffer), and then click Assign. You can also add whole themes to the project view.
Note: Only feature classes will be visible in the project view tab on the right side.

Edit/Remove Entry

To edit an project view, click on Edit project view. A new window opens, where you can edit your values you've defined before. But there is a new available option:

  • Active feature:

With this dropdown list it is possible to set an active feature when you start GeoMedia Smart Client, but it is required that the feature right is set at least to Activate. To set an feature right to Activate, the is locatable checkbox must be checked in the feature options.

To delete a project view, mark it and click Edit project view. Click on Delete to delete it.
