Asset Map

The Asset Map displays assets of the current tenant on a geographic map based on OpenStreetMap. It uses the position of assets provided by Asset Management.

The center of the Asset Map is defined using coordinates and the location markers can be customized. Zooming can be configured to support Ctrl key only or also mouse wheel.

Example

Asset-Map

Interface

Selector

1
<mdsp-asset-map></mdsp-asset-map>

Properties

Name Type Corresponding attribute Default Description Allowed Values
assetClickHandler AssetClickHandlerType asset-click-handler Custom Configures the event handler type for when the user selects an asset or asset group. - Custom: Performs custom actions that you have implemented.

See also here.
localeManager LocaleManager Returns a LocaleManager object.

This can be used to add locales or to get the locale settings. See also here.
longitude number longitude Configures the longitude of the map center.
markerStyle MapMarkerStyle Returns an object for customizing the marker, refer to MapMarkerStyle model.
model IDataModel Returns an object for data model handling, refer to IDataModel model.

popupVisible boolean
selectedAsset IAsset Specifies the selected asset.
view IViewModel Returns an object for view handling, refer to IViewModel model.
wheelZoom boolean wheel-zoom false Enables zoom control by mouse wheel if true. Otherwise, the control key must be pressed for zooming.

Events

Name Type Description
selectedAssetChanged EventEmitter<IAsset> Triggered when a new asset or asset cluster is selected.

This event is only triggered if SelectionList is configured in assetClickHandler.
assetsClicked EventEmitter<AssetClickEvent> Triggered when an asset or asset cluster is clicked.

This event is only triggered if Custom is configured in assetClickHandler.
connected EventEmitter<any> Triggered after the component is created, initialized and appended to the DOM tree.
error EventEmitter<MdspUiError> Triggered when an error occurs in the component or while accessing APIs. See also here.

Remarks

  • The Asset Map supports up to 2,000 markers if clusterDistance is set to 0.
  • It is recommended to adapt the clusterDistance based on the pin size and number of assets in a tenant.
  • Up to 25,000 requests to the underlying map service per month are free. For an extension please contact your assigned Account Executive or Customer Success Manager.

Roles

  • mdsp:core.AssetManagement.xxx (Asset Management API is used)

Use Custom Markers

This sample uses PNG images.

const assetMapComp = document.querySelector('mdsp-asset-map');
assetMapComp.markerStyle.default = { src: '/lib/pin_red.png' };
assetMapComp.markerStyle.selected = { src: '/lib/pin_red_selected.png' };
assetMapComp.markerStyle.clustered = { src: '/lib/clustered.png' };
assetMapComp.markerStyle.clusteredSelected = { src: '/lib/clustered_selected.png' };

Asset-Map

Display a Built-In Pop-Up Window on Asset Click

Use the built-in assetClickHandler with the parameter SelectionList to open a pop-up window with available assets when a user clicks on a marker. The selectedAssetChanged event is triggered when the user selects an asset. This could be used for navigation purposes.

The following sample code shows a pure HTML implementation.

1
2
<mdsp-asset-map style="height: 450px; width: 600px; display: block" error-notification="true" zoom-level=2 draggable=true class="component-border" asset-click-handler="SelectionList"></mdsp-asset-map>
<mdsp-file-view error-notification="true"> </mdsp-file-view>

Custom-Popup

Add a JavaScript listener to detect when the asset is changed.

// get the javascript objects
const assetMapComp = document.querySelector('mdsp-asset-view');
const fileViewComp = document.querySelector('mdsp-file-view');

// add listener for selectedAssetChanged event
assetMapComp.addEventListener('selectedAssetChanged', function (eventParams) {
    // assign the changed asset id to the file view
    fileViewComp.assetId = eventParams.detail.assetId;
});

Display a Custom Pop-Up Window on Asset Click

Instead of the built-in pop-up the Asset Map supports using custom pop-up windows. Therfore it raises an event onAssetsClicked when the user clicks on an asset marker. The following sample demonstrates how to use it.

    .ol-popup {

        background-color: white;
        -webkit-filter: drop-shadow(0 1px 4px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2));
        filter: drop-shadow(0 1px 4px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2));

        display: none;
        max-height: 300px;
    }

    .ol-popup:after, .ol-popup:before {
        top: 100%;
        border: solid transparent;
        content: " ";
        height: 0;
        width: 0;
        position: absolute;
        pointer-events: none;
    }

    .ol-popup:after {
        border-top-color: white;
        border-width: 10px;
        left: 48px;
        margin-left: -10px;
    }

    .ol-popup:before {
        border-top-color: #cccccc;
        border-width: 11px;
        left: 48px;
        margin-left: -11px;
    }

    .ol-popup-closer {
        text-decoration: none;
        position: absolute;
        top: 2px;
        right: 8px;
    }

    .ol-popup-closer:after {
        content: "✖";
    }
</style>

Add the pop-up window to your site as custom HTML element and add a JavaScript listener to detect the onAssetsClicked event:

<div id="map-popup" class="ol-popup">
    <a href="#" id="popup-closer" class="ol-popup-closer"></a>
    <div id="popup-content"></div>

// add event handler and show pop-up window on asset click
const assetMapComp = document.querySelector('mdsp-asset-map');
assetMapComp.addEventListener('assetsClicked', function(eventParams) {
    var eventData = eventParams.detail;
    //show pop-up window only if single asset was clicked
    if (eventData.assets && eventData.assets.length === 1) {
       document.getElementById('popup-content').innerHTML = 'Asset name: ' + eventData.assets[0].name;  
       var popup = document.getElementById("map-popup");
       popup.style.display = "block";
       assetMapComp.popup.show(eventData.position, popup);
    }
});
// add event handler for closing of the popup
var popupCloser = document.getElementById('popup-closer');
    popupCloser.onclick = function() {
    assetMapComp.popup.hide();
    return false;
};

Custom Pop-Up Window

Display Assets of a Specific Type

Use the assetypefilter parameter to only display assets of a specific type or of types derived from it.

// Set a filter for a specific asset type:
assetMapComp.assetTypeFilter = ["core.mcnano"];
// This displays all assets of type 'core.mcnano'.

// Set a filter for multiple asset types:
assetMapComp.assetTypeFilter = {
  supportedTypes: ["core.mcnano", "core.basicagent"]
};
// This displays all assets of type 'core.mcnano' or 'core.basicagent'.

// Set a filter to a specific asset type and all types derived from it:
assetMapComp.assetTypeFilter = {

  includeInheritance: true
};
// This displays all assets of type 'core.basicagent' and types derived from it.
