Adding assets from the Energy Data Repository
=============================================

The `Energy Data Repository <https://edr.hesi.energy>`_ is an online database with ESDL data. The Energy Data Repository
(EDR) contains 3 sections:

* Assets: Asset data with technology and cost parameters
* Profiles: Standard profiles
* Key figures: Key figures, like a list of energy carriers, or the sector overview according to the `SBI
<https://www.kvk.nl/overzicht-standaard-bedrijfsindeling/>`_

At the moment the MapEditor allows to add assets to the map based on the EDR contents. To add an assets from the EDR,
click the 'EDR assets' button:

.. image:: images/menu_bar_edr_assets.png
:alt: Menu bar - EDR assets

The following dialog appears:

.. image:: images/edr_assets_dialog.png
:alt: EDR assets dialog

The dialog contains two drop down lists. The first one can be used to filter on a specific type of asset. The second
drop down list actually determines which asset information is loaded from the EDR. Press the 'Select' button to start
with the process of adding the asset to a specific location. See the :ref:`Adding assets<Adding assets>` section for more information.

WMS layer data
==============

The ESDL MapEditor provides basic functionality for adding WMS layers. This information will be shown on the map and
can then be used as input information to design your energy system. WMS layers can be hosted by any external server
or you can install your own ARCGIS server or use the open source `geoserver <http://geoserver.org/>`_.

WMS layers can be organized per project or for personal use only.

Show WMS layers on the map
--------------------------

From the 'View' menu, select 'WMS layers'

.. image:: images/view_menu_wms_layers.png
:alt: View menu - WMS layers

The following dialog will open:

.. image:: images/wms_layer_dialog.png
:alt: WMS layer dialog

Click any layer from the list to visualize the information on the map

:alt: adding a WMS layer to the map

Adding new layers
-----------------

To add a new layer, the following information must be filled in:

* Description: Name of the layer that is used in the list with all WMS layers
* URL: URL of the server where the WMS layer is hosted. See example configurations for the format
* Layer name: Name of the layer on the server that needs to be visualized
* Legend URL (optional): URL of the legend image that belongs to the layer
* Add to group: To determine where this new layer will be added

Click 'Add layer' button to save the layer configuration.

Example configurations are:

* Example layer from the 'Nationaal Georegister':

* Description: AHN2 5 meter

* URL: http://geodata.nationaalgeoregister.nl/ahn2/wms?

* Layer name: ahn2_5m

* Legend URL: -

* Example layer from the 'Warmte atlas'

* Description: LT_WarmteBronnen_ECW

* URL: https://rvo.b3p.nl/geoserver/WarmteAtlas/wms?

* Layer name: LT_WarmteBronnen_ECW

* Legend URL: -

* Example layer from Thermogis

* Description: Thermogis layer 1

* URL: http://www.thermogis.nl/arcgis/services/thermogis/ThermoGIS_WMS/MapServer/WmsServer?

* Layer name: 1

* Legend URL: -

* Example layer from PICO

* Description: PICO Hoogspanningsnet 2018

* URL: https://pico.geodan.nl/cgi-bin/qgis_mapserv.fcgi?DPI=120&map=/usr/lib/cgi-bin/projects/Hoogspanningsnet_2018.qgs

* Layer name: Hoogspanningsnet_2018

* Legend URL: `https://pico.geodan.nl/cgi-bin/qgis_mapserv.fcgi?DPI=96
&map=/usr/lib/cgi-bin/projects/Hoogspanningsnet_2018.qgs&request=GetLegendGraphic&service=WMS
