Public Access options
In the Access Rights panel
Public access level options
Set Public Access to “Author”
for user generated content
For example, Nokia City World
is a “factory world” that has
the access level set to Author,
so end users can contribute to
the world. This allows users to
tag city objects of their choice
with labels of their choice, such
as “Best Pizza Restaurant,” or
“Jake’sCoolCafe,”etc.
Access Rights (continued)
Public Access
The Public Access function sets access for everybody who is not
on your collaborator list (i.e., the general public). Options include
No Access, Author and Viewer. (See screen shot, below.) Change
the Public Access setting by selecting a different access level and
then clicking the Update button.
No Access
By default, Public Access is set to No Access, which is an ap-
propriate setting for a world that is under development and
not yet ready for public viewing. Just like a web site under de-
velopment, you want to leave your Nokia Point & Find world
hidden until it’s ready for the public. This setting allows only
authorized collaborators access to your world.
Viewer
The Viewer option means that your world is “live” and avail-
able for public viewing, so all Nokia Point & Find users can
use the Add World function on the Nokia Point & Find client to
enter and explore your world.
Author
The Author option allows people to both see your world
and also contribute to the world. This means that any user of
your world can tag objects, which are then uploaded to your
world’s database and available for sorting, editing, and delet-
ing, using the Management Portal’s Manage Tags tools.
