webFRIS promotes the design, configuration, and implementation of custom data layers. Sewall recognizes that although there are many similarities in forestry, there are also many differences. webFRIS can be easily configured to accommodate custom data layers. These data layers may be configured as read-only or editable.

Customized configuration of data layers allows webFRIS to be extended to meet the needs of each client. Custom layers can possess business logic that impact other layers when certain actions are invoked. This flexibility ensures that webFRIS is adaptable to the changing needs of our clients.
