Before you can start using the Mapit plugin, you need to set up some custom fields to store location information for issues. 

1

. Geographic coordinate system

Select which geographic coordinate system you would like to use for storing the issue position. Supported formats are latitude/longitude (default) and UTM.

2. Creating custom fields

Mapit makes use of 3 different custom fields to store location information. If you don't have these fields already, you need to create them: 

Please refer to the following Atlassian

documentation page for more information on how to create custom fields:

3. Placing custom fields on screens

The custom fields

(latitude position, longitude position and address or UTM position and adress) need to be placed on issue screens in order for them to be visible to your users. If creating custom fields from the admin section, you will be asked to do this in the last step of the creation process, but you can also do this manually. Please refer to the following Atlassian documentation for your preferred method:

• Choose the screens on which a custom field will appear
  
• Configuring a screen's tabs and fields
  

4. Associate custom fields with Mapit parameters

Once the custom fields have been created, they need to be mapped to the correct Mapit parameters. Go to the add-ons administration section of your JIRA instance, and choose "General configuration" in the Mapit Configuration section.
