# Setting the Site Label

You can choose how sites are named in the application. The options are:

- Site Name
- Site Label

Tap the **Settings** icon and select the option you prefer in the the **Site Identifier** field.

> ℹ️ **Note**
> ℹ️ 
> ℹ️ You can also set your own nickname for any site. See [Setting a Preferred Site Nickname](https://rubiconwater.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CC/pages/2298380732/Site+Summary#Setting-a-Preferred-Site-Nickname) for details.

# Configuring the Map Type

CustomerConnect can use maps provided by Google Maps or open-source maps provided by Leaflet.

- Google maps are generally higher quality and provide access to Google map tools.
- Leaflet allows you to download sections of the map (*map tiles*) for use offline.

If you want to save parts of your map area for offline use, choose the Leaflet option and configure the Offline Map Tiles settings.

# Configuring Offline Map Tiles

This option is only available if you are using Leaflet as the map provider. 

To save map tiles for use offline, zoom in to the view that you want to save and click the SAVE TILES button.

> ℹ️ **Note**
> ℹ️ 
> ℹ️ The application stores map tiles at the zoom level you choose when you save the tiles. You must be zoomed in to the same level to view the tiles offline.

- To check what tiles you have saved, turn on the **Show cached map tiles** option.
- To remove saved map tiles, click the PURGE TILES button.

> ℹ️ **Note**
> ℹ️ 
> ℹ️ Map tiles take up a large amount of storage space. You should purge any tiles that you no longer need.
