This module adds Swisstopo raster layer support. The api is free to use for some layers only and with some restrictions. For more information see the official documentation
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 13.0Adds a new "Swisstopo" background layer type to the GeoEngine map configuration, letting users display official Swiss topographic map tiles (WMTS) in Odoo maps.
This module extends the GeoEngine map configuration so that a raster layer can be set up as a Swisstopo layer, using the free Swiss federal map service (geo.admin.ch).
On the raster layer form (the same screen where other background layers are configured), choosing the new "Swisstopo" type reveals a "Swisstopo WMTS options" section. There you can enter the layer machine name (for example the official Swisstopo layer identifier), a time dimension value, and a format suffix. When Swisstopo is selected, the standard URL field is hidden because the address is built automatically from the official service.
Once saved, the layer becomes available as a background map in GeoEngine views. The map then loads the Swiss topographic tiles directly from the Swisstopo service, with the swisstopo attribution shown on the map. Only the Swiss projection EPSG:21781 is supported, and the form links to the GeoAdmin API documentation for registration and the list of available layers.
The module touches the geoengine.raster.layer model, adding the Swisstopo option plus the layer name and time fields, and it extends the GeoEngine backend assets to handle this new layer type.
