Re: OU level for GIS: how to define?

 

My point is that it was possible (not sure if it still is) to have two
polygon layers or two point layers. I think there are quite a few use
cases where one would want that flexiblity. Therefore, I was thinking
of renaming as "Thematic layer 1" and "Thematic layer 2" (or something
a bit better).

Another issue (which I guess should be blueprint) is that it could
make sense to have the heading of each legend be the name of the
indicator/dataelement, rather than the current static one.
