Adding Layers to Workspace

This section presents information about how you can add layers to a workspace.

At times, you may want to add a specific layer to a workspace to help you visualize and/or analyze better. You can add all types of layers to a workspace without any pre-conditions. However, when you add a specific layer to a workspace, it is recommended that you access the workspace – where you added the layer – and verify the layer is available.

See the Types of Layers section to know the layers you can add to a workspace.

Pre-requisites

• You are only permitted to add layer or layers to a workspace that you own, or you have created
• You are only permitted to add layers to a workspace you have access to as a group member.

To add a layer to a workspace, do the following:

1. In the Explore module, locate the layer that you want to add.

2. Select the specific layer, click the More Options menu, and then select the Add to Workspace option.
