Project Settings

Project Settings allow you to modify a variety of settings such as preferred units, timezone information, privacy, project location, default mode and support preferences.

Where can I access project settings?

Project Settings can be accessed from the Project Menu from both Plan and Engage.

This allows you to:

  • Retitle and describe your project. Your project's description will be displayed inside the Information panel in Engage mode. Project descriptions support Markdown enabling you to add links and format text.
  • Configure your preferred units:
    • Currency (this is displayed in cost modelling outputs)
    • System (metric or imperial)
    • Velocity (kph or m/s)
    • Default drive side (this can be overriden when creating a new transport layer)
  • Set timezone information:
    • Timezone
    • Time format (12/24 hour)
  • Review your Project's Privacy Settings
  • Change the location of the project by name or as comma-separated decimal degrees. N.B. This cannot be changed once geometry has been added to your project.
  • Change the default Transport Mode. This will take effect once you add a new layer in the Layer Panel (see below)

  • Enable or disable support (giving the Podaris team administrative permissions for your project)

Network Fields

Project Settings includes dedicated network selection fields that utilise the asset library to attach referenced networks to your project:

  • Street Network:
    • Clicking this field opens the asset library, restricted specifically to Streets projects that you have access to view.
    • You can preview the street layout on the map and use the view selector to choose a specific view or scenario.
    • Street networks attached here are reference-only (read-only and kept in sync with the source project); they cannot be added as editable copies.
    • Click Select to attach the reference.
  • Default Network (Insight projects only):
    • Appears only when configuring project settings for a Podaris:Insight project.
    • Clicking this field opens the asset library, restricted to Transport Network and project sources.
    • Allows you to pick a default network and select a specific view or scenario to serve as the baseline network for analysis.
    • Like street networks, this attaches as a read-only reference. Click Select to confirm.
