Share feature layers

When images are added to a project, Drone2Map loads the geolocation information from information embedded in the images or from an external file and creates an Images layer and Flight Lines layer. The Feature Layer tool allows you to share these layers to your sharing portal without having to run any processing on the images. If you choose to process your images before sharing, additional layers are enabled for sharing as feature layers.

Share your items

You have the following options for sharing your items, depending on your sharing privileges:

• Your organization—Sharing with your organization means only members of your organization have access to your item.
• Groups to which you belong—If you are a member of a group, you can share your item with that group. Sharing with specific groups restricts access to a smaller, more focused set of people.
• Everyone—Sharing with everyone makes your item public; anybody who has access to the portal website or ArcGIS Online, including anonymous users, can find and use your item, and group owners can include it in their group content.
• Everyone, your organization, and groups to which you belong—You can share your item with a larger audience (for example, everyone and your organization) and also share it with a specific group. This allows you to categorize your item as especially relevant to a particular group while still making it available to others in your organization.
