GeoMap

Requirements

The GeoMap UI element can only be used with a special software component that is provided by the geographical maps. This software component which you can use to expand the Internet Graphics Service (IGS) is not included in the delivered software package SAP NetWeaver Application Server. It must be purchased from a third-party provider. The GeoMap UI element cannot be displayed without this complementary software component.

Use

The geographical coordinates are derived from the longitude and latitude values of a geographical location and must be entered in WGS84 format based on the reference system World Geodetic System -1984 (WGS84).
