Datasets and Documents can be accessed from the Data menu of the navigation bar. The Maps menu lets you filter to display only maps. This applies to other menu items like GeoStories and Dashboards.
Documents
Datasets
Vector data can be uploaded in many different formats (ESRI Shapefile, KML and so on…). Satellite imagery and other kinds of raster data can be uploaded as GeoTIFFs.
Maps
MapStand Hub maps also contain other information such as map zoom and extent, dataset ordering, and style.
You can create a map based on uploaded datasets, combine them with some existing datasets and a remote web service dataset, share the resulting map for public viewing. Once the data has been uploaded, MapStand Hub lets the user search for it geographically or via keywords and create maps. All the datasets are automatically re-projected to web mercator for maps display, making it possible to use popular base maps such as OpenStreetMap.
