We currently provide seven supported mapping sources for importing floorplans.

Flat Image (format .png or .jpg)

Use this option to import a bitmap of your floorplan.

1. Upload the image file
2. Draw reference lines of known length (in metres) to scale the image
3. Our system generates a tiled version of the floorplan that is used in our console.
4. You have the option to make the generated zxy tiles public. You can use these tiles in a viewer, for example leaflet, to display the floorplan to users.

Our SDK will generate positions in an xy coordinate system with the (0,0) origin top left of the image.

These coordinates can be plotted directly on the tiles.

If you need to display a position on a map that doesn't use the tiles, you will need to correctly translate and scale the coordinates to work with your map.

IMDF GeoJson

1. Specify either a URL to your IMDF data, or
2. Upload a zip file containing your IMDF data.
3. Select which level(s) in the IMDF plan you wish to import.
4. The selected levels are then available in our web console.

IMDF is a georeferenced format. Our SDK will produce positions in lat,lng coordinates which can be directly displayed on the IMDF map, or any other georeferenced map.

Mapspeople

1. Enter a Mapspeople API Key so our platform can access your maps
2. Select which floor(s) you wish to import.
3. The selected floors are then displayed in our web console.

Mapspeople maps are georeferenced. Our SDK will produce positions in lat,lng coordinates which can be directly displayed on the Mapspeople map, or any other georeferenced map.

Mazemap

1. Enter a MazeMap campus ID (or for public campuses, simply select your campus from the list)
2. Select the floor(s) you wish to import
3. The selected floors are then available in our web console.

Mazemap maps are georeferenced. Our SDK will produce positions in lat,lng coordinates which can be directly displayed on the MAzemap map, or any other georeferenced map.

Visioglobe

1. Specify either a URL to your IMDF data, or
2. Upload a zip file containing your IMDF data.
3. Select which level(s) in the IMDF plan you wish to import.
4. The selected levels are then available in our web console.

Visioglobe maps are georeferenced. Our SDK will produce positions in lat,lng coordinates which can be directly displayed on the Visioglobe map, or any other georeferenced map.

Mappedin

Mappedin use IMDF format. Follow the guide for IMDF imports.

ExpoFP

1. Enter the ExpoFP event name
2. The floorplan for the event is then available in our web console.
3. Stands from the ExpoFP plan will be automatically imported as regions in our platform.

ExpoFP maps are not georeferenced. The SDK produces positions with pixel values that can be directly displayed on the ExpoFP map.
