Many of the configuration items required will include references to strings. To avoid duplication, a tag can be defined in the global.properties file in the root configuration and the tag name used in the XML file.
To use a tag, add this in the global.properties file.
To reference a tag include the sting $TAG_NAME$, where TAG_NAME is the tag to be used.

Configuration of location icons can be used to help identify the different types of locations on the map display. This is an optional configuration item. If it is not available then the default location icon will be used to all locations. When available on the file system, the name of the XML file is for example:

LocationIcons 1.00 default.xml

LocationIcons                            Fixed file name for the location icon configuration

1.00                                            Version number

default                                         Flag to indicate the version is the default configuration (otherwise omitted).
