Call a view

To call a View directly with the viewid, the following URL can be used. 

https://hostname/v/viewid/

The term hostname is to be replaced here by the respective hostname of the PlexMap instance.

The viewer can be further parameterized. The valid parameters are described below. These are at least

• either lat (latitude), lon (longitude) and height 
• or x (right value in the coordinate system (e.g. Gauss-Krüger or UTM), y (high value) und z (hight).

Optionale parameters are:

• gr (elevation reference relative for relative hights above the terrain, absolute for absolute heights or default value: none)
• elevation (distance of the camera from the named point in meters, default value: 100) and
• yaw (rotation of the camera in degrees (yaw angle), 0 is direction north, 90 east etc., default value: 0).
• pitch (rotation of the camera in degrees (tilt), -90 is from above, 0 is no tilt, default value: -25).
• layers (specification of Layers to be shown/hidden initially, e.g. +orthofoto,-toppluswms)
• image (PlexMap Street 360°/PlexMap Oblique: direct call of the specified image)
• marker ((Parameter for PlexMap 2D, 3D and PlexMap Oblique: Signalled address call by a marker, instructions see below)
   

An example of a vistalink with explicit components would be the following URL:

https://demo.geoplex.de/v/campus-demo/?lat=51.07833792&lon=6.90529936&yaw=14&elevation=700

Note: If certain values like elevation or pitch are chosen too small, the viewer may jump directly to pedestrian mode (normal behavior). Choose larger values if this is not intended.

If multiple viewer modes are configured in a View, the desired viewer mode can be passed in the URL. Then the default start mode will be overwritten and the viewer will start in the specified mode:

https://demo.geoplex.de/v/campus-demo/?state=cesium

Possible values (available depending on licensing):

Another View URL parameter is the initial search query. This is passed by the abbreviation q. If the search line is activated in the View, a search is started immediately and jumps to the first entry found. For example, the address search can be called directly:

 https://demo.geoplex.de/v/campus-demo/?q=Am%20Hang%202a

In addition to the above described parameterization of the View, there is another possibility to call the viewer with a specific View. For this purpose, a Vistacode (link) can be generated with the "share link" tool. This code contains all the necessary information about a View, but is only machine readable to keep the link as small as possible. An example is the following:

https://demo.geoplex.de/v/campus-demo/?359hLV64Ms_C73EK8Wa4IM99A5nl6C45k4Nl000000

The layout can be customized using the view URL parameter layout. By default, all controls are displayed in full layout. The slim layout has reduced variants of the controls. The minimal layout presents only the map content without controls:
