Earthlight: Temporary Layers
Import a GIS layer temporarily in Earthlight so users can inspect it before deciding whether to save it.
Temporary Layers allow admin users to import a GIS layer, check its contents and decide whether it should be saved to the database.
Why it matters
Not every dataset needs to become a permanent layer immediately. A temporary review step helps teams inspect incoming data, check whether it is useful and avoid adding unnecessary clutter to managed map layers.
Where it helps
This is useful when GIS teams receive new or one-off spatial data and need a quick way to review it in context before making a publishing decision.
