Plugin configuration

The Configuration file is read from the aims directory that must be created in the QGIS settings directory.

For example:

• Windows OS: C:\Users\<User Name>\.qgis2\aims\aims\aimsConfig.ini
• Linux ~/.qgis2/aims/aimsConfig.ini

aimsConfig.ini

The below can be used as a template for the aimsConfig.ini
