Defining preferences for the creation of GIS features in EAM

Define preferences for GIS features that you create from within EAM. When you define preferences, specify the equipment profile related to the layer in which you intend to create the new GIS feature. The default Layer, Location X, and Location Y are retrieved based on the preference.

Note: When creating features, attribute data is populated based on field mapping. If there is no mapping available for an attribute, the attribute data is populated based on the GIS profile.

Also specify how EAM retrieves data for the creation of GIS features.

There are three ways to populate data for the creation of GIS features from within EAM:

  1. Auto-create
  2. Prompt
  3. Manual
