L.1. About this Section
This section describes the use of the InstantAtlas HTML Profile template.
This template allows you to create a set of linked HTML pages that provide
a clear, accessible view of your data at different levels (theme, indicator,
geography feature) without Flash content.
It is assumed that you have already read section ‘B. The InstantAtlas
Desktop Publisher’, section ‘D. The InstantAtlas Style Editor’ and section
‘E. The InstantAtlas Excel Data Manager’.
L.2. Publishing an HTML Profile Report
L.2.1. Data Preparation
Before you can publish an HTML Profile report you need to have your data
in InstantAtlas XML format (i.e. the same format as used by the Flash
templates). You can use either the Excel or Access Data Manager of
InstantAtlas to structure and export your data in the same way as for the
other templates. Please see section ‘E. The InstantAtlas Excel Data
Manager’ or the Access Data Manager user guide for further information.
There are no special associates required. For an example Excel workbook
suitable for use in the HTML Profile Template, please refer to the Excel
workbook in your Start Menu under ‘InstantAtlas Desktop Edition’.
For the report to display your data in tables, it is necessary that you
have the same table structure within one theme. In other words all
indicators of the same theme need to have the same associates.
Please note that the InstantAtlas Publisher will not create demo data
for this template and the data cannot be changed after the publishing
process is finished. Also, the ‘Create data file from digital map data’ option
in the ‘Choose Your Data’ screen in the Publisher cannot be used for this
template.
HTML Profile reports can display:
1. Themes
2. Indicators
3. Time Periods
4. Associates
5. Metatext
6. Filters (as grouping options in the area index page)
You must upload your data XML file into the ‘Choose Your Data’ screen of
the Publisher (Figure 200).
