= Layer List Dialog =

List of currently loaded layers. There are different types of layers:

  * Data Layer: holds the OpenStreetMap data (nodes, segments, ways, ...). At the moment, only one data layer exists.
  * GPS Layer: holds the gps data loaded from your local hard disk (by using the open dialog to load GPX files) or from openstreetmap. The context menu (right mouse click on layer in layer list) allows to set special properties for different gps layers (different colors, line style, etc.).
  * Photo Layer: the context menu (right mouse) of a GPS layer provides the menu to import images. Using this feature allows to match digital images with the gps coordinates to ease the naming of streets (for example). 
  * Landsat Image: if the Landsat plugin is installed and a Landsat image was downloaded, this layer holds the image.

Every layer may be switched visible/invisible
