How this works…

  • If a GeoBlacklight SolrDocument has a IIIF Manifest (via dct_references_s)
  • Check Allmaps for matching IIIF Manifest “id” entry (IIIF Manifest [id or @id])
    • If present…
      • Display the “Tabbed viewer”: Item Viewer | Georeferenced Map
      • The Georeferenced Map tab uses the @allmaps/leaflet plugin to render the Allmaps’ WarpedMapLayer
      • In the Sidebar we link to the Allmaps Viewer
    • If not present…
      • In the Sidebar we link to the Allmaps Editor
