Prerequisites
You need to make sure the system wide configuration of the SAP Geographical Enablement
Framework, such as map provider setting, has been completed correctly. Use default
configuration if you are using the delivered UI. If you need to expose services in
other formats than what is provided by the default Esri REST feature service, refer
to the Default GIS Implementation (Esri) section of this
document.
Procedure
-
Your business objects will be displayed as layers on the map. You need to model your
business objects using the object hierarchy concept according to your business
requirement. This is a conceptual design process to define your business
objects, geo objects, business layers, and geometry layers. You may also want to
decide which geometry context to use for each business layer, as well as the
symbols or icons, which are the legends used on the map to draw points, lines,
and polygons for the geometry layers in this step.
-
Once you have the conceptual design ready, develop the geo object specific
implementation classes of the interface
IF_GEF_BO_SERVICE. It will be used
in the Customizing activity object hierarchy. The API is described in the next
section.
-
Customize your object hierarchy by using the Customizing activity Configure the
Framework under . You can also run transaction
gef_frw_config in the backend system. For more
information on this configuration step, see the section on Customizing the Framework.
-
Customize your UI profiles by using the Customizing activity Configure the Map
User Interface under . You can also run transaction
gef_gis_config in the backend system. For more
information on this configuration step, see the section Customizing the Map User Interface.
