Legends

Legends help to better understand the representations in the map. These are offered at various points in easymap explorer and are only visible if the corresponding map layer is also visible. If the map layer or analysis is activated, but is not currently displayed due to the zoom range, the corresponding legend is also not displayed.

Note for map creators

When releasing the map in easymap you can specify under the legend settings for each legend element whether it should be displayed in the Legends control window, in the content window, under the control window on the right side or under the map title on the left side. Legend items displayed below the control window will always remain visible regardless of the displayed content of the control window, unless the associated analysis is not visible. If legends of active analyses accumulate below the control window or map title, they can be minimized. For more information about the legends and about how to change the advanced settings of the legend in easymap should be configured, please click here.

In the figure you can see different placement possibilities of legends in the map.
