Edit an address layer

This chapter describes the options for editing an existing address layer:

You can add further addresses to an existing address layer.

  1. Open the data manager via the “Data management” entry either from the application menu or from the home area.

  2. Click on the <+ Add address> button for the desired address layer.

  3. The window for entering the address is displayed.

  1. You can search for an address in the "Address" field. The search function supports you here - just as described under "Creating and Editing a Route" - by narrowing down the search results and allowing you to use favorites.

    As soon as you have selected a hit as an address, the location is zoomed in on the right in the map view.

  2. The other input fields correspond to the data fields in the address layer that are not automatically assigned to the address data (street, postal code, city, country).

    • The "ID" field is a mandatory field, as each address data record requires a unique number.

      • You can assign the ID yourself - the entry is checked for uniqueness.

      • Alternatively, you can use the button to generate a unique ID.

    • You can fill in all other fields according to your requirements.

  1. Once you have entered all the information, confirm the address with the <Save and close> button. The new address is now included in the address layer.

  1. To edit an address entry later, click on the desired entry in the list.

  2. The address entry window is displayed. Here you can

    • change the actual address - use the search field to determine the new position.

    • Change information in user-defined fields.

  3. Click <Save and Close> to save the change. The address will now be displayed in its changed form in the list.

You can select individual or multiple addresses and delete them from the address layer.

  1. Open the data manager via the “Data management” entry either from the application menu or from the home area.

  2. Now select the address(es) to be deleted using the checkboxes in the left-hand column and click <Delete>

  1. Confirm the deletion of the address(es) in the dialog that appears.

The address is thus deleted from the address layer. This cannot be undone - if necessary, you can add the address again as described above.
