Open a Publication
A Publication can be opened via a direct url or embedded, as a part of a webpage. A url is case sensitive. Pay attention to perfect spelling.
Depending the configuration of your server the direct publication url will look like :
http://<server name>:<port>/publications/<publication name>/<page>.html
A default Orbit configuration provides 3 html pages (/<page>.html) to open your publication :
- \index.html : The publication will be opened with a Map and Panorama component
- \panorama.html : Only the Panorama component will be opened
- \map.html : Only the Map component will be opened.
A publication is loaded with a default start-up location and map scale. These are defined by the administrator.
Contact your service provider to know more about your publications and their direct url's.
Open Panorama at X,Y
Open the publication on a specific position defined by XY coordinates :
http://<server name>:<port>/publications/<publication name>/panorama.html?x=<X-coordinate>&y=<Y-coordinate>&crs=<EPSG code>
- <X-coordinate> : value for X with . as decimal separator.
- <Y-coordinate> : value for Y with . as decimal separator.
- <EPSG code> : optional crs EPSG code of the given x,y coordinates. If no crs is set the publication crs will be used.
Open Panorama with PhotoID
Open the publication with a specific position defined by a photo ID :
http://<server name>:<port>/publications/<publication name>/panorama.html?photoId=<Orbit photoId>
- <Orbit photoId> : The photoId of the panorama image is displayed in the lower left corner of each image view.
The Orbit photoId is a composed string of [project]/[run]/[image]. Both the complete string as the [image] tag only can be used as Orbit photoId.
Note if the [image] tag is not an unique identifier within the opened publication, the first image result will be returned.
