Working with data layers and form templates

To view the Data list, click in the toolbar at the left of the map.

The Data list shows the different feature layers that are contained within your map workspace. Data layers that will contain features collected using the TerraFlex field app have a form template associated with the layer.

When you first create a map workspace the Data list will be empty.

Adding data layers

To add data layers to the map workspace, you can:

• Add empty data layers by creating form templates or adding an existing form template.

• Add existing features as data layers by importing Shapefiles.

• Link to an existing layer in another map workspace.

• Create an offline basemap layer that contains a snapshot of the map that can be used as a background when using the TerraFlex field app offline.

When features collected using TerraFlex in Cloud Projects are synchronized to the cloud, the features are added to the appropriate data layer in the map, ready to be reviewed, shared, or exported.
