Real-Time Collaboration¶
ODIN supports real-time collaboration through the Matrix protocol. Multiple ODIN instances can share layers and synchronise changes in real time.
How It Works¶
Collaboration in ODIN operates at the layer level. When you share a layer, it becomes available to other ODIN users connected to the same Matrix server. Changes to features within shared layers are replicated automatically.
Matrix is a federated, open protocol — you can use public Matrix servers or host your own for full control over your data.
Sharing a Layer¶
- Select the layer you want to share in the sidebar
- Open the Sharing panel from the Properties Panel
- Configure the Matrix server connection
- Invite collaborators
Permissions¶
Shared layers support different permission levels:
| Power Level | Access |
|---|---|
| 0 | Read-only access |
| 25 | Read and write (create/edit features) |
| 50 | Change layer name and settings |
| 100 | Full control (creator) |
A shared layer is read-only by default. Permissions for individual users can be changed at any time by the layer owner.
