Custom Map Overlay, POI or Geofence?

SJ 7 months ago

Hi all,

I would like to achieve something like the below image:

Currently I am using the Geofence, I added in the blocks manually. However, i have more than 100 blocks, wonder what is the best way to achieve something like what I have shown?

We have a POI layer option that might work for you.

Hi,

I try to put a KML file in the modern folder and refer the KML file under the user preference, but it doesn't seems to work. Any idea?

Does the link work if you open it directly?

Why do you have modern folder? What version are you using?

I actually upgrade from version 5.2. I am not sure how to point to the accessible location, but based on the instructions, the files should kept in the modern folder. But I don't think I can access it directly as i hit 404 trying to browse to the file through the URL: http://XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:8082/GTME_Block.kml

Try storing it externally somewhere instead.

Hi Anton,

What does it means store in externally? I tried to store in a public accessible blob storage where I can download it through the URL, but when I try to configure the POI, it says: jakarta.ws.rs.WebApplicationException: HTTP 401 Unauthorized | More Details

Do I allow to point to POI to an external URL?

If it's a public URL, it should work. What's the URL?

It's working perfectly for me on the latest version:
