# URL settings

Various settings could be set from URL query part in order to create permalinks.

These are set after the `?` symbol of the URL, following a `key=value` format, each being separated by `&` symbol.

Example:

```urlencoded
https://api.panoramax.xyz/?map=19.51/48.1204522/-1.7199004&pic=890b6268-7716-4e34-ada9-69985e6c1657
```

!!! note

	This works only for __Viewer__ and __Photo Viewer__ components, not for __Editor__ or __Coverage Map__.

## :fontawesome-solid-computer: Interface settings

### :material-target: `focus`: main shown element

Switch to choose which element between map or picture should be shown wide at start. Examples:

- `focus=map`
- `focus=pic`

By default, picture is shown wide.

!!! note

	In versions prior to 4.0.0, another `meta` value was also available to display picture metadata popup. As this part of interface is shown directly on picture side since 4.0.0, this parameter was removed. If present, picture is shown focused.

### :simple-speedtest: `speed`: sequence play speed

The duration of stay on a picture during sequence play (excluding image downloading time), in milliseconds. Authorized values are between 0 and 3000. Example:

```urlencoded
speed=1000
```

### :lock: `nav`: allowed navigation between pictures

Choose the allowed navigation between pictures, to eventually restrict what is visible from first shown picture. Values are:

- `nav=any` (or no value): no restriction in navigation (default)
- `nav=seq`: can only see pictures in same sequence
- `nav=none/pic`: can only see current picture, no navigation to other picture allowed

## :material-image: Picture settings

### :material-barcode: `pic`: picture ID

The currently selected picture ID. Example:

```urlencoded
pic=890b6268-7716-4e34-ada9-69985e6c1657

### :material-arrow-all: `xyz`: picture position

The shown position in picture, following this format:

```
x/y/z
```

With:

- `x`: the heading in degrees (0 = North, 90 = East, 180 = South, 270 = West)
- `y`: top/bottom position in degrees (-90 = bottom, 0 = front, 90 = top)
- `z`: zoom level (0 = minimum/wide view, 100 = maximum/full zoom)

Example:

```urlencoded
xyz=10/25/50
```

### :material-tag-arrow-right: `xywh`: picture position (annotation format)

The position to show on picture at first load, in common annotation format.

```
x,y,w,h
```

With:

- `x`: the horizontal offset compared to original picture left border (in pixels)
- `y`: the vertical offset compared to original picture top border (in pixels)
- `w`: the area width (in pixels)
- `h`: the area height (in pixels)

Example:

```urlencoded
xywh=3520,1264,96,112
```

### :label: `annot`: selected picture annotation

The annotation UUID to focus on at picture load. Only works in combination with `pic` parameter.

```urlencoded
annot=fe298d59-a9c6-4680-8e76-6efe82d97f46&pic=52c30227-c5fb-4536-bb13-8c36cabf22ea
```

## :map: Map settings

### :fontawesome-solid-location-dot: `map`: map position and visibility

The `map` parameters handles both map visibility and position. It can take different values:

- `map=zoom/latitude/longitude`: for setting the map position (following [MapLibre GL JS hash format](https://maplibre.org/maplibre-gl-js/docs/API/type-aliases/MapOptions/#hash)). It updates automatically when map is moved.
- no parameter set: shows the map of the whole world, or zoomed on instance area of interest.

Example:

```urlencoded
map=19.51/48.1204522/-1.7199004
```

### :date: `date_from` and `date_to`: filter map data by date

Minimum and maximum capture date for pictures and sequences to show on map (if map is enabled), in ISO format:

```urlencoded
date_from=2020-01-01&date_to=2023-12-31
```

### :material-rotate-360: `pic_type`: filter map data by picture type

The type of picture (360° or classic) to show on map (if map is enabled). Examples:

- `pic_type=flat` for classic pictures
- `pic_type=equirectangular` for 360° pictures
- Not set for showing both

### :camera: `camera`: filter map data by camera make and model

The camera make and model to filter shown pictures and sequences on map (if map is enabled). A fuzzy search is used to filter on map, but your string _should_ always start with camera make. Examples:

- `camera=gopro` will display all pictures taken with any _GoPro_ camera
- `camera=gopro%20max` will only show pictures taken with a _GoPro Max_ camera
- `camera=max` will not shown any picture on map, as it doesn't match any camera make

### :medal: `pic_score`: filter map data by quality score

The pictures quality level wanted for map display (if map is enabled). Values are `A`, `B`, `C`, `D`, `E` and can be used that way:

- `pic_score=A` for only best pictures
- `pic_score=ABC` for A, B or C-grade pictures


### :material-crosshairs-gps: `gps`: filter map data by location precision

The pictures location precision wanted for map display (if map is enabled). Values are `1, 2, 3, 4, 5`, and can be used like:

- `gps=5` for pictures with highest precision (ranked 5 stars)
- `gps=1,2,3` for pictures with low to medium precision (ranked 1, 2 or 3 stars)

### :material-format-paint: `theme`: map colouring for pictures and sequences

The map theme to use for displaying pictures and sequences (if map is enabled). Available themes are:

- `theme=default` (or no setting defined): single color for display (no classification)
- `theme=age`: color based on picture/sequence age (red = recent, yellow = 2+ years old)
- `theme=type`: color based on camera type (orange = classic, green = 360°)
- `theme=score`: color based on quality score (green = best quality, yellow = worst)
- `theme=gps`: color based on location precision (green = best positioning, yellow = worst)

### :material-nature-people: `background`: map background

The map background to display (if map is enabled, and raster background configured). Available values are:

- `background=streets` (or no setting defined): classic streets map
- `background=aerial`: aerial imagery (only if raster background available)

### :octagonal_sign: `overlay`: map semantics overlays

The semantics overlay to enable by default (if map is enabled, with semantics layers associated). The value is the list of semantics overlays IDs, separated by a `,`. Example:

```urlencoded
overlay=tfsigns,other
```

### :fontawesome-solid-user: `users`: filter map data by username

This parameter filters pictures and sequences shown on map to only keep those of concerned users. Each user is defined by its UUID (not username). List is comma-separated. Example:

```urlencoded
users=abcdefgh-1234-5678-9012-abcdefgh12345678,dcf0d3be-0418-4b71-9315-0ff8a2f86a0b
```

### :fontawesome-solid-building-circle-arrow-right: `level`: indoor map level

__Only if Indoor maps display is enabled__ ([see the tutorial](./tutorials/indoor_maps.md))

This parameters selects the indoor map level to display on map load. This should correspond to a level available in selected area. Example:

```urlencoded
level=-1
```
