This tutorial demonstrates how to organize and manage multiple map layers using group layers in your mapping application. Group layers allow you to combine different layer types into a single logical unit, simplifying layer management and enabling collective operations on multiple layers simultaneously.
You'll learn how to:
- Create individual layers of different types (WFS, WMS)
- Combine multiple layers into a single group layer
- Configure group layer properties like visibility and name
- Add the group layer to your map's overlay manager
- Manage multiple layers as a single unit
Group layers are essential for creating well-organized maps with complex layer structures. This capability allows you to create hierarchical layer organizations, toggle visibility of multiple layers at once, and manage related layers as cohesive units, improving both the user experience and the maintainability of your mapping application.
