===== Datasets =====
{{111:mobile_mapping:desktop:asset_inventory:manage:createnewtheme_dataset.png?nolink|}}

Specify the dataset properties

**Name** \\
Enter a clear and unique name. \\ 
If a duplicated name is entered Orbit will not be able to create the new theme. \\
The name can contain alphanumeric characters, spaces and underscores _ , \\ but no special characters (é, ç, ...) nor dashes - and points . 
\\ \\
**Spatial Type** \\
Define the Spatial data type : Points, Lines (poly-lines) or Areas. \\
An inventory theme can have only one spatial component. 

**CRS** \\
Define the [[111:technologies:crs:crs_orbit|Coordinate Reference System]]. \\
Measured objects will be saved in the given coordinate system. 
\\ \\
Orbit advises to do your data production in the same coordinate system as your mobile mapping data. If required theme can be exported to any coordinate system. This workflow avoids coordinate transformation at time of production. 
\\ \\
**Legend** \\
Specify the basic legend parameter, depending the chosen spatial type :
    * Points : symbol library and symbol
    * Lines : line color
    * Areas : area fill color 
If required the administrator will able to set all legend parameters via the dataset [[111:orbitgis:datasets:legend:index|Legend Editor]] once the theme has been created.

===== Attributes =====

{{111:mobile_mapping:desktop:asset_inventory:manage:createnewtheme_attributes.png?nolink|}}

Setup the [[111:orbitgis:inspector:object:index|Attribute Component]]. \\

**Attribute** \\
Enter a clear and unique name. \\ 
The name can contain alphanumeric characters and underscores _ , \\ but no special characters (é, ç, ...) nor spaces, dashes - and points to avoid major database issues.

When using **Asset Inventory in Client-Server** one central database is used to store all extracted features. Special attention is required on naming the attributes. Depending the used database some column names cannot be used as they are reserved by the database engine : [[111:mobile_mapping:desktop:asset_inventory:manage:manage_asset_inventory_cs|]].

**Username** \\
Enter a username. \\
A username is optional, any character can be used. Feel free.

**Rule** \\
Set the attribute data type or attribute rule, more information read [[111:orbitgis:datasets:contents:index]] > Rules. \\

If required the administrator will able to edit the attribute component via the "[[111:orbitgis:datasets:index|Dataset Properties]]" > "Dataset Structure" window.
