2. Layers can be turned on and off by clicking them in the list.
3. Layers can be made transparent or moved up and down the list by changing their configuration
4. Layers can be configured (for the current working session only) by clicking each layer's sub-menu icon (●●●) to drop down a sub-menu listing | 📂 see example |.
5. Layers Pop-up Menu. Configuring layers (Layers sub-menu): the layer pop-up menu (●●●) consists of the following commands:

   Zoom to	zoom to designated layer on map
   Transparency	set level of layer's transparency on base map
   Set visibility range	set when layer becomes visible & invisible while zooming in and out
   Disable/Enable pop-up	in "All Theban Tombs"-layer, disable & enable ability to open pop-up window for each tomb clicked

More Menu

1. Select Menu (search for tombs within a selected area or by location):
   1. step 1, designate an area by manually drawing a shape anywhere on the map; selected tombs will appear within the shape and will be listed in the Attribute Table:
      1. point;
      2. rectangle: draw a rectangle on the map to select tombs within;
      3. polygon: draw an irregularly shaped polygon on the map to select tombs within;
      4. circle: draw a circle of any diameter on the map to select tombs within;
      5. lasso: circumscribe an irregular area to select tombs within;
      6. line: draw a line of any length on the map and locate and identify tombs along its length;
   2. step 2, filter selected tombs:
      1. after selected tombs appear within the shape and are listed in the Attribute Table, narrow the selection further with a custom Filtered Search within the Attribute Table itself according to relevant data-fields and criteria (see below, Searching the Attribute Table).

2. Draw Menu
   1. enter draw mode; draw figures, lines, and text in the Map Viewer:
      1. draw arbitrary shapes on the map of any color, thickness, shading or transparency, including: lines, polygons, circles, geometric shapes, free-hand figures;
      2. insert points as place markers with coordinates (degrees latitude/longitude);
      3. type text, labels, etc., on the map.

3. Find and Buffer Menu (diameter search)
   1. find and select tombs within a specific diameter anywhere on the map:
      1. pin a point on the map;
      2. designate a circle around that point by specifying a diameter of any length;
      3. all tombs within the circle are selected and highlighted, and listed in the Attribute Table (see below, More Menu > Find and Buffer);
      4. further narrow that search, if necessary, by performing a custom Filtered Search within the Attribute Table according to relevant data-fields and criteria (see below, Searching the Attribute Table).

4. Identify tombs near to me
   1. Locate a tomb by designated the tomb no. or by the user's GPS location, or by a point on map; then identify additional tombs in relation to the first or each other. (see below, Identify tombs near to me).

5. Share this Site
   1. Share or post web links for this application to other sites on the Internet and imbed maps and layers there, including:
      1. Email
      2. Facebook
      3. Twitter
      4. Google+
   2. Link Options allow the user to format the post with choices about map extent, finding locations, querying features, adding markers, adjusting layer visibility, etc.
   3. Embed Options allow the user to set a custom size for the map posted.

Determining Location Coordinates

1. Find Coordinates of Points and Features
   1. UTM coordinates of the tombs do not currently appear in the Attribute Table, nor in any search or selection, nor query results.
   2. Several methods exist to find the coordinates of any individual tomb, structure, or feature:
      1. activate the Cross-hairs icon (⊞) in bottom left corner of the map in main window; point and click on any tomb or feature; a green marker is pinned to that point, and UTM coordinates appear beside the Cross-hairs icon (⊞); or
      2. click the Ruler-widget; open pop-up window; click "Location"-icon ; point and click arrow on tomb or any map-feature; a green location marker is pinned, and latitude and longitude appear in a list in the Ruler pop-up window; or
      3. for a tomb's coordinates: click on the location-point of any tomb, and open its pop-up window; click menu icon (●●●) on bottom right, and choose "+ Add a marker"; blue location marker appears on the tomb; click the marker; pop-up opens with latitude and longitude;
      4. to close the marker: click menu icon (●●●) on bottom right; choose "x Remove a marker".

Calculate Lengths and Areas

1. Measure Length and Distance:
   1. click on the Ruler-widget in the upper left corner of the Map Viewer, Main Window, and open the Ruler-pop-up window;
   2. click and highlight the Ruler ("Distance")-icon; choose measuring system (metric, imperial, etc.);
   3. click cursor-arrow on points across the map; lengths appear in the Ruler-pop-up window.
   4. Lines can be snapped continuously into geometrical shapes to calculate perimeters around areas and features.
   5. All linear measurements are understood along the ground and not in the air.

2. Measure Area Dimensions (Square Meters, Kilometers, etc.):
   1. The area of any structure, section or feature on the map can be measured in square meters, kilometers, hectares, acres, etc.;
   2. click the Ruler-widget in the upper left corner of the Map Viewer, Main Window, and open the Ruler-pop-up window;
   3. click and highlight the "Area"-icon; choose measuring system (metric, imperial, etc.);
   4. click the cursor-arrow successively on the map along the margins or outline of the structure, feature or area to be measured;
   5. the area is automatically filled and shaded, and the measurement appears in the Ruler-pop-up window.

Attribute Table

1. The Attribute Table is the core of the GIS database. It contains all the data fields (or attributes) in the "All Theban Tombs"-layer according to which each tomb-record is cataloged, and it can be Filter-searched or queried to find any number of tombs on the map (see below).
2. Open and view the table by clicking the rectangular tab at the bottom center of the map in the main window. The table will slide up vertically from the bottom | 📂 see example |.

   Record ID.	unique no. generated sequentially by GIS at creation of entry
   Tomb No.	Theban tomb series no. (tt); Kampp no. (k); Metropolitan Museum of Art no. (mma); provisional no. (p); Porter and Moss unclassified no., etc.

3. Usurpers and Usurpation in the Table. The database catalogs burials in the tombs, including those of primary owners and usurpers.
4. "Usurpation" here means any reuse for interment. OLGIS-TN does not distinguish between "usurpation" and any other kind of secondary burial, either ill-intended or non-hostile occupation (even by family descendents or for later communal burials).
5. Currently, any usurped tomb usually has two or more records in the Attribute Table, each occupying the same location on the map:
   1. the primary record identifies the name and date of the original owner of tomb with the status of "Primary Owner";
   2. the secondary record identifies the name and date of the later occupant with the status of "Usurper".
6. The Usurper and Translit. Usurper-fields in the table occur only in the primary record of a usurped tomb (unless the usurper has been usurped by later second usurper (e.g., tt068).
7. See below for more details and instructions (Usurpers and Usurpation of Tombs).

Custom Searching the Attribute Table ("All Theban Tombs"-Layer)

1. Open the table by clicking the rectangular tab at the bottom center of the map. The full database currently reads "734 features 0 selected."
2. The tombs found in every Selection and every Find and Buffer, and every Filter-search are listed in the table. As successive active searches continue to add or reduce the number of tombs found, these changes are also reflected in the table's contents.
3. To search the open Attribute Table:
   1. on the table's Toolbar, click Options > Filter | 📂 see example |;
   2. the Filter pop-up window opens with search dialogue) | 📂 see example |;
   3. to query a single field, choose "+ Add expression";
   4. to query multiple fields, choose "+ Add set";
   5. in left box, select search field from drop-down menu;
   6. click Settings-icon (⚙) on right, and "Set input type" | 📂 see example |:
      1. "Value" (for the user's choice of search term);
      2. "Unique" (for program-supplied pre-set term in pull-down menu);
   7. in right box, type a search term, or select a pre-set from pull-down menu;
   8. Hint: if user types own search term, then best to search by "contains" instead of "is";
   9. to add additional parameters and to search multiple-fields, re-select "+ Add expression", and repeat same procedure as above;
   10. with a multiple-fields search, determine if you are searching for the term(s) in "all" of the expressions (=Boolean "AND") or in "any" of them (=Boolean "OR");
   11. click "OK";
   12. the new search results appear on the map and are listed in the Attribute Table | 📂 see example |.

4. To print or download a map of an active search from the Attribute Table:
   1. click on Printer-widget in upper left corner of the Map Viewer, Main Window, and open the Print-dialogue window (do not clear the search or the table!) | 📂 see example |;
   2. choose desired Layout, Format, and Advanced settings;
   3. Print will generate the map in the current web browser, from which it can be saved or printed (see below for more details, Printing Search Results).

5. To download an active search of data-records from the Attribute Table:
   1. on the table's Toolbar, click Options > "Export all to CSV" (i.e., comma-delimited spreadsheet) | 📂 see example |;
   2. save CSV-file to drive; open in Excel or other spreadsheet software (or in a word processor and reformat).
   3. Hint: The contents of the entire table of the "All Theban Tombs"-layer can be downloaded, if all the tombs are showing on the map, and zero (0) are selected.

6. Clearing and closing the search:
   1. Close the active search when finished to return to the full database with all tombs showing on the map and table.
   2. To close and clear the active search manually delete each expression-box [X] in the Filter pop-up window.
   3. If the expressions are not deleted and the search not cleared, the database will continue to work only with the previous search selection, not the full database.

7. Note: UTM coordinates of the tombs do not appear in the Attribute Table nor in any search or query results!
   1. Coordinates of the tombs cannot be searched with Select and Filter-commands; they cannot be downloaded into a single list.
   2. For methods to determine coordinates of any individual tomb, structure, or feature (see above Determining Location Coordinates).

Usurpers and Usurpation of Tombs and Burials

1. Currently, any tomb with a usurper (either named or "Unknown") has two or more records in the database sharing the same location on the map:
   1. the primary record identifying the name and date of the Occupant-original owner having an Occupant Status of "Primary Owner";
   2. a secondary record identifying the name and date of the Occupant-usurper having an Occupant Status of "Usurper".
2. The Usurper and Translit. Usurper-fields occur only in the primary record of a usurped tomb (unless the usurper has been usurped by later second usurper = two usurpations (e.g., tt068).
3. When Filter-searching data fields that occur in both(!) records of usurped tombs (e.g., the same Tomb-no.-field appears in both records), the search will retrieve both primary and secondary records, and each will be listed separately in the Attribute Table.
4. However on the map, only one location-point and one pop-up window per tomb can occur:
   1. the initial pop-up window's Toolbar says "(1 of 2)", and a right arrow (►) appears;
   2. then clicking on the arrows (◄ ►) toggles back and forth through the pop-up windows of each burial in the tomb (i.e., "Primary Owner" and "Usurper").
5. Conversely, Filter-searching a data-field that occurs in only one record of a usurped tomb will only retrieve the single record (e.g., a search for tombs whose Usurper-field "is not blank" {i.e., all usurped tombs} will return only the primary record of each usurped tomb).
6. Alternatively, a compound Filtered Search for any tombs whose Usurper-field "is not blank" or whose Occupant Status is "Usurper" (=Boolean "OR") should retrieve both primary and secondary records of the usurped tombs in the Attribute Table.

How to Perform Searches and Selections

1. Keyword Search. Search tombs and features by any word appearing anywhere in the Attribute Table:
   1. The white query box for entering keyword searches is located in Map Viewer, Main Window, upper left corner.
   2. Entering a term causes OLGIS-TN to search all the fields of the Attribute Table, e.g., names, tomb nos., titles, year-dates, notes, bibliography, etc.;
   3. the database returns a drop-down list with tomb nos. identifying records in which the term occurs;
   4. clicking on the term in the list highlights the tomb on the map and opens its pop-up window with tomb data.

2. Filtered Search. Search the full database, Map Viewer, Main Window, by the data-fields in "All Theban Tombs":
   1. In the upper left corner of the map, click the Filtered-Search-widget .
   2. The Filtered-Search pop-up window opens with search dialogue | 📂 see example |.
   3. Note: This popup window and dialogue are different from the Attribute Table's Filtered search (see above):
      1. in the "Layer"-box, select "All Theban Tombs";
      2. choose "+ Add expression" to query a single field;
      3. alternatively, choose "+ Add set" to query multiple fields;
      4. in the top box, select the data-field to be searched from the drop-down menu;
      5. click Settings-icon (⚙) below-right, and "Set input type" | 📂 see example |:
         1. "Value" (for user's own choice of a search term);
         2. "Unique" (for a program-supplied pre-set term in pull-down menu);
      6. in the lower box, type a search term (if Input Type="Value"), or select a pre-set term from the pull-down menu (if Input Type="Unique");
      7. in the middle box, select the appropriate search operator, e.g.: is, is not, starts with, end with, contains, does not contain, is any of, is none of, is blank, is not blank, etc.
      8. Different search operators exist for text, numbers, and dates in the data-fields.
      9. Hint: if user types own search term, then best to search by "contains" instead of "is";
      10. to add additional parameters and to search multiple-fields, re-select "+ Add expression", and repeat same procedure as above;
      11. with a multiple-fields search, determine if you are searching for the term(s) in "all" of the expressions, which will limit the search (=Boolean "AND") or in "any" of them, which will expand the search (=Boolean "OR");
      12. as the search boxes are processed, the found tombs appear on the map, and are listed in the Attribute Table.
   4. The search results will remain active and will restrict further searches to the current data set, even when the user closes the Filtered-Search pop-up window; otherwise, clear the current search to return to the full database (see below).

3. Selection and Search by Area or Location
   1. "Selecting" and "Buffering" are the processes of designating a space or area of specific dimensions on the map and identifying any tombs and features within it.
   2. In Main Menu, click More > Select or Find and Buffer or Identify tombs near me.

   3. Select Menu:
      1. choose a shape from the list to manually draw or designate the area on the map being searched: point, line, polygon, circle, rectangle, triangle; oval; free-hand;
      2. use the cursor/pointer to draw the shape;
      3. the selected tombs are highlighted within the shape on the map, and they are listed in the Attribute Table;
      4. narrow the selection further, if necessary, with a custom Filtered Search according to relevant data-fields and criteria (see above, Filtered Search).

   4. Find and Buffer Menu (locate and plot tombs within a specific circular area on the map):
      1. Note: Only circular buffers are possible in this web application.
      2. Two methods of circular buffering are:
         1. using GPS to locate and draw a circle around one's position in the necropolis;
         2. pinning a point on the map as center of a circle.
      3. To find tombs around one's position using GPS:
         1. Open Find and Buffer menu;
         2. select the Find my location-icon (=compass ) to allow OLGIS-TN to access user's GPS location;
         3. user's location appears on the map with a pin-marker;
         4. use the sliding scale on the menu to extend a circle around all the tombs within a radius of 1-300 m. from the user.
         5. One can move actively through the necropolis with GPS turned on and always be aware of the surrounding tombs. Note: the pin will not move or track a trail; the user must drop the pin and re-acquire manually.
      4. To find tombs by manually pinning a location-marker on the map:
         1. In the Find and Buffer menu, select the "Set Location"-icon ;
         2. use cursor/pointer to establish a pin on the map;
         3. use the sliding scale on the menu to extend a circle around all the tombs from 1-300 m. from the pin;
      5. In both methods, the selected tombs are listed in the More Menu according to their distances from the user or pin.
      6. Further narrow the search, if necessary, with a custom Filtered Search (see above, Filtered Search).
      7. Other GIS functions are still available, e.g., the Ruler-widget to measure any lengths or areas.

   5. Identify tombs near to me (+GPS)
      1. Note: Only circular searches are possible in this application; they might be used in conjunction with GPS; then if necessary, identify further tombs in relation to the first or each other.
      2. Three methods of identifying tombs are:
         1. designating a specific tomb no. to locate;
         2. using GPS to automatically locate and draw a circle around the user's position;
         3. manually pinning a location-marker on the map as the center of a circle.
      3. Designate and locate a specific tomb and surrounding structures by its tomb number:
         1. Open menu, and fill the search box with the designated tomb number;
         2. the target tomb is highlighted on map, and a panel with the tomb's data slides open in the More Menu | 📂 see example |.
         3. To identify tombs surrounding the target tomb:
            1. set a pin on the target tomb by clicking the "search nearby"-icon () in the data-panel (bottom right);
            2. adjust the slide-rule to the desired number of meters around the target tomb;
            3. a circle extends around all the tombs from 1-300 m. from the pin;
            4. surrounding tombs within the circle are now listed in the More Menu according to their distances from the pinned tomb; click to open each entry and highlight the tomb on the map.
      4. Identify tombs near to the user's position using GPS (similar to Find and Buffer above):
         1. Be sure the device's GPS is activated;
         2. open menu, and select the Find my location-icon (=compass );
         3. user's location appears on the map with a pin-marker;
         4. use the sliding scale on the menu to extend a circle encompassing all the tombs surrounding the pin according to the diameter on the sliding-scale;
         5. the selected tombs within the circle are now listed in the More Menu in order of their distances from the user's location-pin;
         6. clicking each each entry in the list highlights that tomb on the map and opens a panel with its tomb data.
      5. Identify tombs near to a set location on the map (similar to Find and Buffer above):
         1. Open menu, and select the "Set Location"-icon ;
         2. use cursor/pointer to manually set a pin anywhere on the map;
         3. adjust the sliding scale to extend a circle around all the tombs from 1-300 m. from the pin; | 📂 see example |;
      6. To shift and re-center the circle around any other tomb in the list:
         1. click the desired tomb in the list, and open its data panel;
         2. click the "search nearby"-icon () in the panel;
         3. the pin and circle jump to the new tomb; adjust the sliding scale, if desired, to widen or narrow the diameter.

Clear a Search

1. Clearing the search returns all the tombs to the map and Attribute Table, and the status line below the table reads: "734 features 0 selected." A new search of the entire database is now possible:
   1. after completing the previous search, click the sliding button in the upper right corner of the Filter pop-up window, and
   2. manually delete each expression-box [X] in the Filtered-Search pop-up window.
2. If the previous search expressions are not deleted, and the search is not cleared, the database will continue to work only with the previous limited search results, not the full database.

Print Search Results (Maps and Data)

1. Printing and Downloading Maps:
2. One can print search results of the tombs from both the base map and the Attribute Table.
3. The printed image will include the screen image of the tombs on the base map, including any overlaid topographical maps, markers, drawings, etc.

3. Export Layers and Maps to Local ArcGIS Desktop. Any layer or topographical map, including the entire "All Theban Tombs"-Attribute Table, can be downloaded and opened in ArcMap or ArcGIS Pro software that is resident on the user's local computer. Here the data can be independently saved and manipulated as needed. However, the UTM location-coordinates of the tombs are not currently included in any download.
   1. Open Layers Menu; select the desired layer to open ("All Theban Tombs" or any map);
   2. click on that layer's pop-up menu (●●●); cursor to bottom of list, and select "Show Item Details" | 📂 see example |:
   3. the Item Details-page of the map or "All Theban Tombs"-table will open in a separate window (all background info and metadata for the layer are located here);
   4. click on "Open in ArcGIS Desktop"; select "ArcMap" or "ArcGIS Pro".
   5. The layer's contents (map or table) are downloaded to the user's computer and opened in the copy of ArcGIS Desktop running locally.
