Changing Custom Map Layers
1.1 Drone Operations Centre – Custom Map Layer Styling Overview
Custom map layers allow you to display your organisation’s own geospatial data, such as KML or GeoJSON files, directly in AirHub. Adjusting the colour of these layers helps improve map readability and ensure consistent visual standards across your team’s operations.
1.2 How to Change Custom Layer Colors
Note: You must have administrative permissions within an organisational workspace to edit custom map layer styles.
You must also have at least one custom layer uploaded. To learn how to upload one, read our guide: How to Add Custom Map Layers.
Follow these steps to edit the colour styling of an existing custom map layer:
Ensure you have selected your Admin Workspace from the Workspace switcher at the top of the sidebar.
Navigate to the Manage section in the sidebar.
Click on the Organisation menu item.
Select the Custom Map Layers tab.
You will see a list of all uploaded custom map layers. Find the layer you wish to edit.
Click on the colour swatch next to either the Line or Fill property to open the colour picker.
Choose your desired colour from the palette.
Click OK to confirm your selection.
Your custom map layer’s styling will update immediately. All members of your organisation will see the updated colours on the main map, ensuring consistent visualisation across workspaces.
