In LiquidEarth, a "space" serves as a container for managing and organizing your projects, datasets, and models. Each space is a versatile entity that allows you to import datasets and structure them as per your specific requirements. Users can even hierarchically stack spaces, including other spaces as subspaces, thereby linking various data types and scales into a comprehensive context (note: this feature is still in development).
It's important to differentiate between a space and the 3D Workspace. The 3D workspace refers to the local 3D canvas on your device where you load and work with one or multiple spaces. Spaces are containers that are saved on a cloud or remote server and loaded onto the local 3D workspace.
A newly created empty space is displayed in the 3D workspace.
In the 3D workspace, a space is visualized by its gray-transparent bounding box with the size of the space’s extent. This bounding box can be interacted with (see Visualization & Basic Interactions) and also be hidden, including its content.
Some key features and properties of spaces include:
A newly initiated space’s metadata can be edited directly. The space is created after using the Save Changes button.
