Create a mission dashboard
A mission dashboard provides insightful views of geographic information that help you monitor events or activities going on in your mission. There are multiple information elements that come together on a single screen to provide you a comprehensive view of your mission. Although not required to create, the mission dashboard is intended for the mission observer to offer an engaging view of mission data that provides insights for decision making. You can only create a dashboard if you are the mission owner or an admin who is a member of the mission.
To create a mission dashboard for a desired mission, complete the following steps:
- Navigate to Mission Details.
- On the mission Overview tab, click Create Mission Dashboard.
A Create Mission Dashboard modal appears.
- Fill out the Create Mission Dashboard modal with the following:
- Title – The preferred name of your dashboard
- Tags – Type in any words to make the dashboard easily searchable
- Description - Additional information relevant to the mission
- Click Create Mission Dashboard to create your dashboard. Additionally, you can click Cancel to return to the Overview tab
A notification appears confirming the successful creation of your dashboard and you are directed back to the mission Overview tab.
The Create Mission Dashboard button will change to Open Mission Dashboard.
The dashboard also gets saved in My Content of your portal and in the folder of your mission.
