# Swiss Locator plugin | ||
|
||
# QGIS Swiss Locator plugin | ||
|
||
## What | ||
A Swiss Geoportal locator filter plugin for QGIS 3 | ||
Integrates the Swiss Geoportal into QGIS | ||
|
||
Similarly to the online geoportal [https://map.geo.admin.ch](https://map.geo.admin.ch/), this plugin allows to search within [QGIS](https://qgis.org/) desktop for | ||
|
||
* locations: | ||
* cantons, cities and communes, | ||
* all names as printed on the national map (SwissNames) | ||
* districts | ||
* Locations: | ||
* Cantons, cities and municipalities, | ||
* Place names as printed on the national map (SwissNames) | ||
* Districts | ||
* ZIP codes | ||
* addresses | ||
* cadastral parcels | ||
* WMS layers from Federal Geoportal (map.geo.admin.ch) or opendata.swiss, which can easily be added to the map | ||
* features (search through features descriptions) | ||
|
||
|
||
## Where | ||
|
||
The search is performed through the QGIS [locator bar](https://qgis.org/en/site/forusers/visualchangelog30/#feature-locator-bar). | ||
|
||
Configuration is achieved in the main application settings under the `locator` tab. You will be able to: | ||
* enable or disable searches (locations, layers, features) | ||
* customize prefixes, define if they are default filters (used without prefix) | ||
* access to the configuration of the plugin | ||
* include or exclude opendata.swiss data from layer searches | ||
|
||
In the configuration of the plugin, further customization can be achieved: | ||
* language definition (English, German, French, Italian, Rumantsch) | ||
* CRS definition (project, CH1903 or CH1903+) | ||
* defining if the plugin will try to display further information in a tool tip | ||
* defining layers used in the feature search | ||
* Addresses | ||
* Cadastral parcels | ||
* Layers from the Federal Geoportal (map.geo.admin.ch) or opendata.swiss, which can easily be added to the map | ||
* WMS | ||
* WMTS | ||
* Vector Tiles | ||
* Features (search through features descriptions) | ||
|
||
## How | ||
|
||
Type the text to search in the locator bar. | ||
|
||
If the result is a **WMS layer**, double-clicking on it will try to add it to the map. | ||
If the result is a **WMTS layer**, double-clicking on it will try to add it to the map. | ||
It might not be possible since some layers are only visible in the geoportal (map.geo.admin.ch). | ||
In this case, a link will be shown to display the layer in the geoportal. | ||
|
||
![WMTS layer search](./doc/wmts_search.png) | ||
|
||
If the result is a **location** or **feature**, | ||
double-clicking on it will move the map canvas to the result and highlight its position. | ||
If any further information can be shown, an info window will be shown over the map. | ||
|
||
![Feature search](./doc/feature_search.png) | ||
|
||
If the result is a **vector tiles layer**, | ||
double clicking it will add it to the map canvas as another background layer. | ||
