Configure smart map with Milestone Federated Architecture
When you use smart map in a Milestone Federated Architecture, all the devices from the connected sites
appear on the smart map. Follow the steps below to set up smart map in a federated architecture.
For general information about Milestone Federated Architecture, see Configuring
Milestone Federated Architecture on page 87.
1. Before connecting the top site with child sites, make sure that geographic coordinates have been
specified on all devices on all sites. Geographic coordinates are added automatically when a device is
positioned on the smart map in XProtect Smart Client, but you can also add them manually in
Management Client in the device properties. For more information, see Define device position and
camera direction, field of view, depth (smart map) on page 310.
2. You must add the Smart Client operators as Windows users on the parent site and all the federated
sites. At least on the top site, the Windows users must have smart map editing permissions. This allows
the users to edit the smart map for the top site and for all child sites. Next, you need to determine
whether the Windows users on the child sites need smart map editing permissions. In Management
Client, first you create the Windows users under Roles, and then you enable smart map editing. For
more information, see Enable smart map editing on page 308.
3. On the top site, add the child sites as Windows users to a role with administrator permissions. When
you specify the object type, select the Computers check box.
4. On each child site, add the top site as a Windows user to the same administrator role that is used on the
top site. When you specify the object type, select the Computers check box.
5. On the top site, make sure that you can view the Federated Site Hierarchy window. In Management
Client, go to View and select Federated Site Hierarchy. Add each of the child sites to the top site. For
more information, see Add site to hierarchy on page 295.
6. Now you can test that Milestone Federated Architecture works in XProtect Smart Client. Log in to the
top site as an administrator or as an operator, and open a view that contains the smart map. If the
setup has been done correctly, all devices from the top site and the child sites appear on the smart
map. If you log in to one of the child sites, you will see only the devices from that site and its child sites.
To edit devices on a smart map, for example the camera position and angle, users need
device editing permissions. For more information, see Enable editing devices on smart
map on page 309.
