Layer Files

Layer Files allow users to save the configuration and settings associated with one or more layers to a file, which can then be used to restart those layers in a future JMARS session with the given configuration and settings already in place. Unlike Session Files, Layer Files do not contain any account-dependent settings so any user may load them without providing a username and password.
