The applications of GIS tools are expanding in the field of business, research, defense, etc. Thus the features and tools of every GIS software are updating abruptly for helping users in these industries to get the right information by performing complex analyses over GIS data. But working with most of the GIS software in the market requires adequate training and dense knowledge in geospatial concepts.
That is where IGISMap is useful. IGISMap is GIS based web platform providing multiple GIS applications that are most important in the field of geospatial analytics. The peculiarity of IGISMAP in the GIS Industry is its UI/UX that helps the user to perform effortless geospatial operations. In this article, we will discuss Add Existing File tool of IGISMap.
In IGISMap, GIS data is uploaded, created, edited and worked on a map. A map is a spatial interface that supports GIS data and give access to various tools to perform geospatial operations. As a user of IGISMap, you can create any number of maps and add GIS data of any formats.
Add Existing File is a tool that keeps the list of all data that are available on every map in your IGISMap account. Users can open this tool directly from the map or from the dashboard to view the list of data that are published in the maps. You can select any data from the list, preview it and add that data to the map. Thus you dont have to take effort on uploading the data again if it is available in any map.
Let’s look into the application of Add Existing File tool in IGISMap.
Let’s see how a data published in a map get listed in Add Existing Tool. So let’s first publish a data in a map. For this lets use Add GIS Data and publish USA county boundaries polygono data
Add data from IGISMap GIS data collection
Select united states of america from the list of countries and select the data administrative county boundaries and click Add Layer icon.
In the next step, since we dont need to crop the data, directly click Add Layer button as shown below.
Add GIS Data – Add Layer
Now, GIS data of USA county boundaries are successfully added in the map.

Structure of telecommunication networks are complex and create large quantities of geographically dispersed data. Consider you are a data engineer working in the telecommunication sector who wants to plot telephone pole locations with its attribute data to keep the track for its operations and maintenance. The attribute data added with the plotted locations can help you to observe information associated with each telephone pole and maybe embed this map on the department website.
GIStechnology is advancing in various field including the telecommunications sector to build maps and perform GIS analysis. Limited GIS software are available that provides services in both creating maps and hosting them on websites. GIS mapping enables people working in telecommunication sectors to enhance network planning, deployment, maintenance, operations, and even sales and marketing.
IGISMap gives powerful tool sets to create interactive maps of locations and geospatial features associated with any applications based on social services, business analysis, scientific research etc. Using the tools in the IGISMap application, we can track, maintain and analyze the telephone poles. IGISMap is a web platform providing multiple GIS applications that are most important in the field of geospatial analytics. GIS tools of IGISMap application allows users to Add Data, Create Data, Map Data, Style Data, Process Data, Analyze Data and also help users to Share Data privately or publicly.
How to plot Telephone pole locations online with Attributes?
Create Point Datatool of IGISMap is a powerful GIS tool to plot point vector data to represent locations and point objects with latitude and longitude value. Using this online tool, we can plot the locations of telephone poles and can add the attribute data to each location of the data created.
Start Plotting Points for Telephone Pole Locations
First step is Add Points, where we can start plotting the telephone pole locations as pins. IGISMap provides you with three features for plotting points: Drop Points, Search Address, and Lat Lon Values.
Drop points let us drop a pin at the desired location on the map. Zoom to the location of the telephone pole and click to add the pin.
Add Points – Drop Points
Search Address option opens a search address box, where you can enter an address and choose the right location address from the dropdown and click the Plot button to plot a point on that location.
Add Points – Search Address
Lat Lon Values will open two boxes to enter latitude and longitude values of the location you want to plot, Plot Location button in this option will plot a pin at the location you have entered.
Add Points – Lat Lon
Also, a popup will open for entering attribute values in each attribute field for that telephone pole locations when a point is plotting. Click the Submit button to submit the save the attribute entries. You can choose to delete the point you plotted by clicking the Delete Point button. You can disable the default opening of this popup using the toggle button.
But we can open this popup anytime while plotting, by simply clicking on an existing pin.
Note: If the Drop Points option is active for dropping pins, it should be unselected for selecting the plotted pins to open the attribute popup.
After plotting every desired slum locations for our data, click the Save and Publish button to publish your data in the map.
Review and edit the datatable
After publishing Telephone poles, Show/Edit Datatable section will be opened. Here you can edit the attribute values entered for each point location after clicking button in the datatable along each row in the datatable. You can also choose to delete a point by clicking button.
Show Datatable
Options to edit or delete the attribute fields are also available in this step along with the option to add new attribute fields to this data. If you thought of adding more points to the data of ATM Locations, select the Back button to go to the Add Points section, where you can add more points and make changes to the already published data.
Option to update the data table as bulk is available in this section. Where the whole data table can be downloaded in Excel format using Download Datatable button. And to make the changes outside IGISMap, then upload the edited/updated spreadsheet file using Upload Datatable button and integrate with the same point data of ATM locations.
After making all the changes in the datatable, let’s move to the styling section by clicking the Next button to finish plotting.
Style Your Telephone Pole Points
A map will become more meaningful if appropriate icons and colors are used to visualize the features of the map. In IGISMap styling options, Bubble Style and Icon Style are provided for point GIS data.
In Icon Styling, IGISMap provides two more options – Basic and Category styling. Basic Style will provide an appropriate pin icon for styling the telephone pole points and apply it on the telephone polesdata as follows.
Basic Icon style
Another style is the Category Icon styling, where users can select the category on the basis of which styling is added to the point data. For example, if the user selects maintenance attribute as a categorical option, style is changed to symbol using those items.
Bubble style is used to visualize the data quantitatively based on the numerical fields in the datatable. We can assign the size and color of the bubble for each class of values.
Click on Save Style option to save the Bubble style option for the added points.
It’s done! Now if the user wants to add more points, click on Create more points on the layer option. If the user wants to create a new layer, select Create New Layer option.
Created point GIS data
After the point GIS data of telephone pole locations is published in the name Telephone poles, More option beside the data provides list of other features. They can be used for adding more points, showing the legend in the map, editing the style and more.
