# Import

## JMap Importation User Guide

JMap Importation extension allows users of the JMap Pro application to import spatial vector and raster data sets and to add them as a layer in a project.

This layer is ephemeral and will disappear when the session is terminated. However, the contents of this layer can be copied to an editable project layer or to a personal layer. 

For more information on copying elements from one layer to another, refer to the [JMap Edition User Guide](https://docs-jmapserver-lima.k2geospatial.com/e/extensions/edition). 

For more information on personal layers, refer to the [JMap Pro User Guide](https://docs-jmapserver-lima.k2geospatial.com/e/applications/jmap-pro-user-guide).
