Create a set of multiple data items

If you have uploaded multiple data items to Koordinates, you can arrange them into sets. A set is a collection of data layers and tables that can be viewed and downloaded at one time.

You can use sets to enable users to access datasets that are commonly grouped together. The benefit of a set is that it allows users to add and download these datasets in one go, instead of having to add them individually.

Sets can also be queried using the Koordinates Set Query API. Read documentation for the Koordinates Set Query API here

1. Select 'Manage' from the top menu

2. Click 'Manage Data'

3. Click the 'Select' toggle

This will allow you to select data items — such as geospatial layers and tables — to your new set. 

Alternatively, click the 'Create Set' option under the 'Add Data' dropdown in the top-right. 

4. Select the data items you want to add to your set.

5. Click 'Create Set' 

This will create a draft set, which you can edit before making 'live.'

6. Edit set details

As with other data items like individual geospatial layers and tables, you'll be given the option of providing: 

  • Title
  • Description
  • Tags
  • Owning Group
  • Category
  • Metadata

7. Click the 'Contents' tab to manage items in your set. 

The Contents tab allows you to:

  • Add new items
  • Remove items from set
  • Re-order items. 
Note that the order of the items in your set determines how the geospatial layers are represented in both the data portal and any external webmaps. The items at the top of the list will be the 'top' layers on the map. 

This is particularly important for raster layers that may have overlapping extents. 

8. Click 'Save Draft' or 'Publish' to save changes

9. Click 'Access' tab to manage set permissions

10. Click 'Map Services' tab to manage Map Style & Tile Services

You can read more about altering Map Styles here,. Map tiles can be managed by API keys.
