This document describes how to create location geometries with the available drawing tool directly in the InfoEx system.
Step-by-step description
The following sections discuss the creation of polygon, line and point geometries separately.
ISSUE | The system currently does not support multi-geometries (i.e., multiple, separate polygons, lines or points associated with a single location). Workaround: Please contact Pascal Haegeli to discuss possible solutions. JIRA: -772 (Aug.13, 2013) |
Drawing a polygon
Location types that support a polygon geometry include Operation area, Forecast area, Operating zone, Permanent closure, Ski run and Avalanche path
Drawing a line
Location types that support a polygon geometry include Road, Rail, Route, Ski run and Avalanche path

If you have forgotten to complete one of the required fields, you will get an error message and the incomplete field will be highlighted with a red frame.
