Chapter 6 Publishing Worlds with the Management Portal Manage Worlds: Settings We continue our tour of the Management Portal with the Settings page where you customize the look, feel, and functionality of your world with extensive options and controls.
VAR Training Manual and Reference Guide World Icon The first item in the Main Settings panel is the World Icon setting, used to upload the graphic icon that Nokia Point & Find end users see when they access your world on their phone. The format for the small icon is ideally a 45 x 45 pixel JPEG image. To load or change your world’s icon, click the Choose File button and select a JPEG image file for the icon; and then click the Upload Icon button to upload the graphic file.
Chapter 6 Publishing Worlds with the Management Portal Tag Location Association setting On the Settings page Global Country Cell ID Cell ID/GPS GPS Only Tag Location Association (continued) Global The simplest option (the default setting) is the Global tag location association, which means your world’s tags are not tied to a particular location. The examples in this book all use the Global setting.
VAR Training Manual and Reference Guide Nokia uses this setting for their factory Movie World, so instead of downloading all the active tags in the database which include multiple countries, users will only get the tags associated with the country they are in. Cell ID Cell ID uses a location determined by triangulating the cell towers that a phone is using. Tags taken with active Cell ID will be associated with the range of the active cell tower.
Chapter 6 Publishing Worlds with the Management Portal Search URL & Web Button URL settings On the Settings page Search URL Web Button URL Default Search and Web Button URLs Google is the default setting for both the Search URL and Web Button URL and is used until you customize it to web page addresses of your choice.
VAR Training Manual and Reference Guide Advanced Settings options On the Settings page Activate Camera Viewfinder Tagging Rate Upload Tagged Pictures Content Location Association Advanced Settings At the bottom of the Settings page you’ll find Advanced Settings. These settings include: Activate Camera Viewfinder, Tagging Rate, Upload Tagged Pictures, and Content Location Association.
Chapter 6 Publishing Worlds with the Management Portal Advanced Settings (continued) Tagging Rate Tagging Rate may be set for single or repeat tagging. With single tagging rate, the client application generates one tag per label when tagging objects; when set to repeat tagging rate, multiple tags per label are generated. Single tagging is generally a cautious tagging approach good for training and public use (user-generated content). Repeat tagging facilitates and eases production for most tagging work.
VAR Training Manual and Reference Guide Global Blocks any location-specific information to ensure privacy. Country User’s current country is inserted in URLs with [PX.LOC.COUNTRY]. Cell ID If cell tower’s location known, rough location is inserted in URLs with [PX.LOC.LON/LAT]. Cell ID/GPS Uses precise GPS location if available, while defaulting to Cell ID if not. GPS Only If a GPS signal available, precise location is inserted in URLs with [PX.LOC.

VAR Training Manual and Reference Guide How do I know a collaborator’s name? A collaborator creates a unique login name at Nokia Point & Find registration. You can add a collaborator using their login name or their email address. Some of my access levels are grayed out. Why? There is a limit to the number of collaborators you may assign based on the Nokia Point & Find account package you purchased.
Chapter 6 Publishing Worlds with the Management Portal Manage Worlds: Organise Directories On the Organise Directories page, you name and structure Directories that organize the objects in your worlds. Use the tools here to develop easy, intuitive navigation of worlds for mobile users who will be using Nokia Point & Find’s smart Directory navigation and textentry search capabilities to explore and navigate your worlds. A Directory is made up of folders (categories) and entries (labels and result actions).
VAR Training Manual and Reference Guide Tips for working with Directories Create labels in Directories before tagging Setting up a well-organized Directory structure at the start of building your world will make the process of tagging your world’s objects quicker and easier.

Only world owners and collaborators should disable Guest Access. Disabling Guest Access opens a login screen.
Chapter 7 Tagging Objects with the Nokia Point & Find Client Application Tagging objects Make tagging easier Remember, creating your directory structure and labels before tagging will minimize the work required to tag and build your world. See page 6.22 in chapter 6 for details. In the Essential Preliminaries sections at the start of this chapter, you selected a tagging rate of repeat or single in the Management Portal’s Settings area. This setting determines a client’s tagging mode for your world.
VAR Training Manual and Reference Guide 2. The repeat tagging mode is now enabled on your mobile device. The left softkey (and the center key) become Tag buttons for repeat tagging, and the label is in the text box. The label will be highlighted in orange if it is a pre-existing tag.

If an object is found under different lighting conditions (day, night, bright, cloudy, supplemental lights on or off, etc.), then take three to five tags of the object under each (or most) lighting conditions.
