Precache Maps dialog box
This dialog box is displayed when you press Precache maps on the Mapping page of the EV File Properties dialog box. The Precache feature allows you to download WMS map tiles for offline use in Echoview.
Note: The Precache Maps dialog box is only available for WMS map layers. WMTS maps do not support precaching and are always streamed dynamically.
Precache settings allow you to specify the area and zoom level of the WMS map to cache. They include:
| Setting | Description |

Use Reset to select the entire WMS map. Note: The time and computer drive space required to accommodate the download of an entire map can be considerable, especially for high zoom levels. |
