5.4.3. Basemap
In this section you can upload data and set boundaries for the default basemap tile service.
Input:
Basemap file
Boundaries
For Basemap file you can upload a PBF file or choose an area from the dropdown list.

Pic. 5.19. Two ways of selecting basemap: from list and from file
You can set the Boundary for the service area in several ways:
draw it on the map in the interface;
upload a (multi)polygon vector file in GeoJSON format.
If you select an area from the list, its boundaries will be set automatically.
Important
If the boundary is not set, the next data base update will include data of the entire globe, not just the previously uploaded PBF. This would take much more storage space on your device.

Pic. 5.20. Ways to set up boundary for basemap
You can modify the boundary or delete it (Reset map button) and start from scratch.
When all files are uploaded and the boundaries are set, press Submit new basemap data on the top of the page. The process of creating tile service will begin.

If you use custom PBF, upload progress is displayed on the same tab and in the Log tab. After the process is completed successfully, the progress bar becomes green and a tick appears at the end.
