Panel: Mapper Objects

The Mapper Objects panel is where country objects are loaded into the current scene. 3 Options are available. HD, MD, and LD buttons will create 10m, 50m, and 110m resolution countries respectively.

Three collections with objects are added to your scene.

  1. Mapper Collection: - Contains child collections M_Countries and M_Base

  2. M_Countries Collection: - Contains the Country Objects.

  3. M_Base Collection: - Contains the Mapper_Base Object*

Tip

  • Once objects are added, the rest of the Mapper panels will be revealed.

  • SMS Mapper actively checks for it’s collections as the functionality in the below panels depends on the objects being in the scene.

  • For the mapper panels to display

    • all it’s collections need to be present

    • it needs to have the M_Mapper object and,

    • at least one object in M_Countries.
