Main Interface Sections

Access to the different sections of the interface is controlled by the capabilities granted to each user on the portal. Depending on the permissions assigned, certain sections may not be accessible to all users. Below are the details of the main sections and the required capabilities. For more information on capabilities, please consult the page dedicated to roles and capabilities.

“Projects” Section

The “Projects” section allows users to view and access project thumbnails, provided they are logged in and have either the “Collaborator” or “Guest” status on the portal.

• Users with the “Collaborator” status can see thumbnails for all projects on this portal, including those for which they do not yet have access rights. In such cases, they can submit “access requests” for these projects, allowing a project administrator to decide whether or not to grant them access.
• Users with the “Guest” status can only view thumbnails of projects to which they already have access. They cannot see projects they do not yet have access to and, therefore, cannot submit “access requests.” This role is assigned by default when using a share link.

In this section, it is also possible to search for a project by keyword or category and display georeferenced projects on a map. Project administrators can create, delete, or clone a project at the portal level from this section.

“Layers” Section

The “Layers” section is restricted to users with the “Layer Administrator” role on the portal. It allows them to view the data layer library, upload various types of 3D data, and track the conversion status of the uploaded data. Administrators can also preview layers before assigning them to a project, modify layer settings, manage their assignments to projects, and delete unassigned data layers. This section also includes a feature to monitor subscription usage for layer management.

“Users” Section

In the “Users” section, user administrators can view the list of users, manually add a user by email, and search for specific users. They have the ability to edit user profiles, modify their capabilities on the portal, and view the capabilities they hold across different projects. Administrators can also delete users and monitor subscription usage for user management.

“Shares” Section

The “Shares” section is accessible to users who have the “Share a Project” capability on at least one project within the portal. It allows them to view shares they have created. Users can create an access share for one or more projects and obtain a code or share URL. This section also enables users to monitor share usage and access associated instructions.

Administrators can view the complete list of shares created by all users on the portal.

“Administration” Section

The “Administration” section is dedicated to portal administrators. It allows them to modify global portal settings, such as the name or URL, and activate or deactivate certain features at the global level. Administrators can also obtain the necessary information for sharing a project across portals and monitor subscription usage, including the status of each threshold.
