Create and Configure Custom Profile Service

The elevation profile template can be configured to work with a custom profile service.

First, review this blog post and follow the steps to publish a custom profile service.

Next, configure the elevation profile template to consume it with the following steps.

• Download or clone this repo and install the app in your web server
• Open the commonConfig.js file in a text editor
• Find 'elevationSync' and replace the default url with your custom Profile service.
• To work with the app, create a web map that contains the 'demboundary' and (optionally) the 'profileschema' layers created in the workflow outlined in the blog. One way to do this is to add the layer as a shapefile to the map. This will provide a visualization of the territory in which you can create a profile graph with the service.
