%hash = (
 'NMIS8' => {
  'Customer' => 'Opmantek',
  'Location' => 'Bundall, Queensland',
  'Group' => 'NMIS8'
 }
);

In this example  'NMIS8' represents a map entry.

'Customer' => or 'Business' => The name of the business/customer which is the name of the map.

'Location' => The location of each of the business/customer (Geodata).

'Group' => The NMIS group which relates to that business/customer belongs to.

By editing these you could change the groups that display on different maps.

Multi-Map Configuration Example

Lets take an example, like a network with four groups, which represents a company with operations in Australia and the America's.  The groups we have in NMIS are MexicoCity, NewYorkCity, Brisbane, GoldCoast.  We want to end up with three maps, the "Default" map for all the locations and a regional map for each region.

%hash = (
 'Opmantek-Global1' => {
 'Customer' => 'Opmantek-Global',
 'Location' => 'Bundall, Queensland',
 'Group' => 'GoldCoast'
 },
 'Opmantek-Global2' => {
 'Customer' => 'Opmantek-Global',
 'Location' => 'Brisbane, Queensland',
 'Group' => 'Brisbane'
 },
 'Opmantek-Global3' => {
 'Customer' => 'Opmantek-Global',
 'Location' => 'Mexico City, Mexico',
 'Group' => 'MexicoCity'
 },
 'Opmantek-Global4' => {
 'Customer' => 'Opmantek-Global',
 'Location' => 'New York City, New York',
 'Group' => 'NewYorkCity'
 },
 'Opmantek-AU1' => {
 'Customer' => 'Opmantek-AU',
 'Location' => 'Bundall, Queensland',
 'Group' => 'GoldCoast'
 },
 'Opmantek-AU2' => {
 'Customer' => 'Opmantek-AU',
 'Location' => 'Brisbane, Queensland',
 'Group' => 'Brisbane'
 },
 'Opmantek-NA1' => {
 'Customer' => 'Opmantek-NA',
 'Location' => 'Mexico City, Mexico',
 'Group' => 'MexicoCity'
 },
 'Opmantek-NA2' => {
 'Customer' => 'Opmantek-NA',
 'Location' => 'New York City, New York',
    'Group' => 'NewYorkCity'
  },
); 

Configure Map Types

To configure what map type to display, open the Maps.nmis file in /usr/local/opmantek/conf/

...

• google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP displays the default road map view
• google.maps.MapTypeId.SATELLITE displays Google Earth satellite images
• google.maps.MapTypeId.HYBRID displays a mixture of normal and satellite views
• google.maps.MapTypeId.TERRAIN displays a physical map based on terrain information.

Map Centres and Zoom Levels

opMaps will automatically determine the correct map centre and zoom level for your maps, but sometimes, it will calculate the wrong centre for a human, to use an alternate map centre and zoom level you can follow the following instructions.

Configure Default Centres and Zoom Levels

To configure the default centres and  zoom levels, open the Maps.nmis file in /usr/local/opmantek/conf/

...

'mapCentre' => 'X, Y',

'mapZoom' => 'zoomLevel'    

Replace the X,Y and zoomLevel with the value you want.

...

'mapCentre' => '10, -180',

'mapZoom' => '3',

Configure Centres and Zoom Levels for Different Maps

To configure the default centres and  zoom levels, open the Maps.nmis file in /usr/local/opmantek/conf/

...

'mapCentre-Opmantek-EU' => '50, 20',
