The GeoShare allows for centralized storage of geo data, which can easily be reused in multiple Projects by other Users. Data on the GeoShare can be browsed and imported on-demand, or can be automatically included in newly created Projects through Geoplugins.

Editor → Current Situation (Ribbon tab) → Geo import (Ribbon bar) → Geo Share (Dropdown)

  3. If the file should be uploaded to a directory, click on the directory to open it, and repeat this process until the desired target directory has been reached.
  4. At the bottom of the GeoShare window, click on "Add Files".
  5. In the file selection window, select the file which should be added to the GeoShare.
  6. When the file upload has completed, the file is available on the GeoShare.
