Access and Roles

Manage Access to Visual Explorer

Provide users with an authenticated account and the authorization required to access Visual Explorer. Follow your organization’s identity-management and least-privilege practices when assigning access.

Use organization-managed groups or equivalent access structures where available. This makes onboarding, role changes, and offboarding consistent with your organization’s identity-governance process.

Onboard a User

1. Confirm that the user needs access to Visual Explorer for their assigned work.
2. Assign the user through the organization’s approved identity and authorization process.
3. Ask the user to sign in and verify that Visual Explorer loads successfully.
4. Confirm that the user can find the expected configured crops, regions, and layers.

Maintain Access

Review access when a user changes responsibilities or leaves the organization. Remove or update access through the same identity-governance process used for onboarding. Periodically review active access to confirm that it remains appropriate.

Validate the User Experience

For a representative user, verify that the following are available as appropriate to the environment:

• Visual Explorer opens after authentication.
• The user can search and select configured regions.
• The user sees only configured and available crops.
• The data-layers control lists layers that have active data.
• Map and production data correspond to the selected region, crop, layer, and dataset.

If a user cannot see expected content, first verify the user’s access, the selected crop and region, and whether the relevant layer and detection date are available. For a structured troubleshooting approach, see Operational Validation and Support.
