8-1. Pre-requisites

Tutorial pre-requisites

Completion of all core tutorials or existing familiarity with the configuration builder:

• 1. Familiarisation
• 2. My first config
• 3. Working with Services

Tutorial 5. Categorical data is strongly recommended: the World Cover class list is reused here, and if you already completed tutorial 5 you can copy those categories straight across.

If you just completed Tutorial 7 on constraints, your default start map location will be Austria. You may want to reset this to Global View in Settings.

This tutorial builds a standalone layer, so you can follow it either in the configuration you have been developing, or in a fresh configuration.

Data used

• ESA World Cover 2021 served as WMS from the Terrascope MapProxy service.
• NUTS 2024 zonal statistics for World Cover 2021, published as FlatGeoBuf files at four levels of administrative detail.

Info

The preparation of statistics layers themselves is beyond the scope of the tutorial. Please contact the APEx team for further support on the preparation of statistics datasets.

Export often

Export your configuration after each step so you can recover if your browser tab closes.
