# Editable Layers

Some layers allow for data editing, which includes adding, moving, modifying and deleting geometries as well as entering or modifying their attribute values and other data, using forms. This is the case if the JMap administrator has given you permission to modify the contents of one or more layers in a JMap project.&#x20;

Another case is when you use personal layers, which have been created by you or other users who have granted you editing privileges.&#x20;

In both cases, editing tools must be activated in the application.
