Maps
ARK2 supports the display of maps and mapping layers using OpenLayers4. Maps and layers can be dynamically defined in the config database and then linked to a defined page view. Much of the config closely reflects the OpenLayers4 API.
Configuration
The following database tables can be configured to define an OL4 map.
