Using the single page application at viewer.copc.io
The browser-based COPC viewer at viewer.copc.io works really well for our applications. Can we continue to use it at that address with our own data?
Yes. Hobu, Inc. reserves the right to limit application access or remove the website entirely, as it is provided at its cost. That said, it is a single web page application with Hobu, Inc. branding. There is no intention of doing so at this time.
