Kyvos uses Google Maps APIs to render geographical visualizations. 

Important

  • To enable Google Map visualization in Kyvos, you must have an Enterprise License from Google Enterprise Support.

  • You must also register the authorized URLs of your Kyvos server domain in your Google Map account to enable its usage from the Kyvos application.

  • The usage of maps in Kyvos must comply with the Google Terms of Service.

To use Google Maps in production or commercial setup, configure settings in the portal.properties file for the Kyvos web application available at the jakarta/webapps/Kyvos/client/config location.
Configure the following settings under the map section.

  • mapEnabled: true: This configuration is used to decide whether the GIS (as visualization type) option must be available on the viewer.

  • mapProvider: To specify the map provider's name. In case of an invalid entry, this takes osm as the default value.

  • providerURL: To specify the URL of the map provider.

  • Attributes: All the attributions required for a specific map provider.

As part of your Google Map license, you will receive a Client ID, which is required by Kyvos to access Google Maps. Add this Client ID to the portal.properties file.
