Style definition blocks

The shape of a style definition

A style in its most basic form contains a version definition but it can be extended to define how we want geometry and labels to show on the map, how the legend should look like, what information is shown in popups and the formatting used when displaying feature properties.

The table below describes which properties can be used in the style definition.
