XMap User Guide

Once a database administrator sends you a subscription file, you must open it in 

XMap to activate the subscription. A subscription to an Enterprise database allows 
you to synchronize your local copy of the layers with the Enterprise database and/or 

"mark up" the layer using the redlining tools.  
Note  Only one subscription file can be active at a time. 
To Open a Subscription File 
Use the following steps to open a subscription file. 

1.  Double-click the file either within an e-mail or after you save it locally.  
2.  If XMap is not already open, XMap launches automatically; however, you will 

be prompted to restart the application. 
Note  If XMap is already open, you will be prompted to restart the 

application. 

3.  Click the Synchronize button 

 on the toolbar. A progress bar indicates 

the synchronization percentage complete. 

4.  Click OK to acknowledge the synchronization completed.  

The layers that were included in the subscription are added to the workspace. 
Note  If an error occurs during the synchronization process, you will receive 
an error message with a option for viewing the error log. 

5.  To view the layer on the map, click the GIS tab, click the Workspace subtab, 

and then select the check box next to the layer in the workspace. 

6.  To center the layer on the map, double-click the layer in the workspace. 

7.  To create redline edits against the layer(s), click the Redline tool 

  on the 

toolbar and then use the draw annotation tools to mark up the layer(s). All 

redline edits are automatically saved in a Redline draw layer 
(RedlineLayer#.an1) file. For more information, see Creating Redline Edits.

Professional, XMap GIS Editor, and XMap GIS Enterprise. 

 
To ensure the layers that were part of your subscription are the most recent files 

available, click the Synchronize button 

 on the toolbar. The layers are refreshed 

with the latest version from the source database.

Click the Add Synchronized Layers tool 

 on the toolbar for a quick and easy 

way to add all of the layers that are in the active subscription to your workspace. 
The tool is active only when at least one layer in the active subscription has been 
removed from the workspace.
