Cached smart map files (explained)

If you are using Google Maps as your geographic background, files are not cached.

The files that you use for your geographic background are retrieved from a tile server. The time that the files are stored in the cache folder depends on the value selected in the Removed cached smart map files list in the Settings dialog in XProtect Smart Client. The files are stored either:

  • Indefinitely (Never)
  • For 30 days if the file is not used (When not used for 30 days)
  • When the operator exits XProtect Smart Client (On exit)

When you change the tile server address, automatically a new cache folder is created. The previous map files are retained in the associated cache folder on your local computer.
