Setting Up SmartMAP

Before SmartMAP can be used to access digital information—whether it be information on nearby hydrants, calculations based on a selected building, or preplan information accessed via SmartView—a device must have a security certificate installed. This certificate acts as authentication when accessing SmartMAP, so users are not required to input any credentials when accessing the application.

As of May 2020, APX SmartMAP uses SmartView certificates for authentication, so a SmartView certificate will need to be installed to use SmartMAP.

It is also recommended that you set up browser bookmarks and/or desktop shortcuts (if applicable) to facilitate quick and easy SmartMAP access.

Topics covered in this section include installing security certificates on Windows, iOS and Android devices, accessing SmartMAP using a modern browser, and creating SmartMAP shortcuts and browser bookmarks.
