User Profiles¶
Pathfinder provides an easily manageable set of user profiles:
Admin/Staff Users¶
The administrator users can:
Login into the administration site.
Create and manage company users and their roles.
Configure advanced properties and manage the company’s projects, datasets, layers and scenarios.
Create projects. Other roles cannot create new projects or change their data.
Add data to the company base datasets.
Add layers to projects and configure them.
However, the administrators can not change some company options, including:
Available routing algorithms.
Available geoprocesses.
Maximum analysis area size.
When a license is purchased, Gilytics will setup at least one administration user in your organization.
Scenario Editors¶
The scenario editors can:
Open projects created and configured by administrators
Create, modify and delete scenarios in those projects
Run processes to create resistance maps, corridors and paths, and run available geoprocesses
Export reports and scenario results
The editor users can not perform administration tasks like:
Create projects
Add datasets to the company and add layers to projects
Change categories or change layer configuration (rings)
Access the administration site
Viewers¶
Viewer users can see the data and results of projects configured by administrators and editors.
They are able to:
Open projects (when they have permission)
Add shared scenarios to them
Explore the data and analysis results, including statistics. They can change locally their visibility and colors.
Print reports
Download the results
Free Trial Users¶
Any user role can be provided temporarily by Gilytics as a trial user. These users are active for a limited period, normally 15 days.
In most cases, free trial users have the editor role, so they can test existing demo projects creating their own scenarios and performing analysis processes.
