2. BRIDGING THE WORLDS OF THE WEB AND GIS
Bridge the gap between the web and GIS
with the Mapgears Location Platform
(eVouala). This solution is the result of more
than 15 years of working with all our
wonderful customers and our involvement in
the Open source community. It brings a user-
friendly Enterprise Data sharing solution and
a powerful collaboration cloud platform that
makes powerful Location Intelligence tools
accessible to non-technical people.

WHAT IS IT?
eVouala is a sophisticated web platform that allows users to drag and
drop GIS files (imported from anywhere in a multitude of formats)
which then populate immediately on a base mapping layer.
It makes what would otherwise be a static mapping environment into
a dynamic, customizable GIS platform, and this can be done on the fly
without the involvement of a developer. Major aspects are:
• Solid Open source foundation
• Simple and powerful generic basic features
• Elegant in its simplicity and ease of use
• Flexible configurable workflows
• Fully customizable

5. FEATURES
FEATURES
Organize user library
Centralize your data
Centralize all your business datasets into a
powerful data store. We support more than
250 vector or raster spatial formats. Every
vector dataset imported into the Platform is
stored into a powerful specialized Spatial
database. This allows the user to cross-query
imported datasets and find business insights
Users can organize their library according to
their own classifications needed by using
Space. All platform resources are classified by
type and spaces through a user friendly
interface.
Manage permissions and
privileges
Administrator can manage privileges for all
users. A privilege allows users to have access
to a platform feature like resource library,
process, maps, apps, etc. The more a user
has privileges, the more he will be able to
create resources.
Manage Groups and Users
Administrator or granted users can create
groups and users. Compatible with LDAP
protocol when solution install On-premises.

6. FEATURES
Synchronize platform data source
Manage permissions
Administrator or any user can share Platform
resources to any groups or users. Data
sources can be shared through "viewable" or
"editable" mode. A sophisticated permission
cascading mechanism allows users to share
one map to many users with
different permission access types. Secure data
will be removed from a map and protected
according to the user level access.
Data can be synchronized into your account
from remote sources through URL. You can
select the refresh periodicity and the insert
strategy(append/replace)
Flexible way to update
platform data source
Data sources can be update from a web
mapping application built on this platform,
based on user privileges and
permissions. Granted users can also use
remote database connexion managed by an
administrator and edit Platform data
sources. Use expert software like QGIS to
update data or pgAdmin to queried and
updated database table.

7. FEATURES
Event listener
Process
Processes allow advanced users to create
platform dynamic or materialized view. A
process is like an SQL view but built through a
simplified user interface. You can choose
between scalar, aggregate and
spatial operators(30) like min, max, round,
concatenate, join, spatial join, buffer, etc..
You can configure listeners that will trigger
alert, update or setting value on the
system based on platform event.
Online / Offline field data
collection
Organize online/offline field data collection
campaign and use remote service like
Fulcrum. The platform allows an administrator
the ability to synchronize the platform data
source with an external source like Fulcrum
Platform API
You will have access to server and javascript
API to build your custom application.

8. HOW IT WORKS
Connect web services
Select the commercial, free base map provider or your own
custom base map. We support all available static tiles
services on the market (Google, Bing, HERE, Mapbox,
OpenStreetMap, etc). You will need to create your
commercial account first then use your API key to connect
them.
Connect remote OGC Web
services(WMS, WMTS, TMS, XYZ)
Connect your base map
Connect data source
Add to your user library data you've
imported into the powerful internal spatial
database. The import process allows you
to connect all available format on the
market.
Connect real-time data feed
Real-time data feed can come from our asset
tracking gateway or any other real-time asset
tracking or IoT data providers. If we don't
have the feed driver provider, we will create it
for your need.
CONNECT

9. HOW IT WORKS
Forms allow advanced users to have
access to database fields and configure
control types like text, text area, choice
field, check box, date picker, etc…
Forms
Create charts to support your advanced visualization
applications. You have access to bar, line, gauge or
counter charts (configurable by advanced option).
Charts
Advance users now have the ability to use
Jaspersoft Studio to create advance
printable reports. It will be possible to
generate those reports from map features
Reports
Create maps by adding layers from data sources
or processes. Set layers styles form the map editor
and use advanced scripting mapping(mapserver
mapfile) if needed for complex visualization.
Maps will then be used by the application editor.
Maps
CREATE

10. HOW IT WORKS
Mapping applications can be created in a minute by
selecting map tools, data, spatial filters and a data
exploration browser.
Mapping application
Data applications allow platform administrator to
let users edit data without any map. The same
Forms configuration can be used to configure data
applications.
Data application
Create a dashboard application type by adding resources you
created in your account. Select charts, maps, data grid to add in
your dashboard and personalize it with a logo and a
title. Dashboard support cross filter through all dashboard
resources.
Dashboard application
Build your own custom web application.
Customize your own web
application
