Manually Upload Your Floorplan

Before You Begin

  • Obtain an image file in a supported format: PNG (recommended), JPG, JPEG, GIF, or BMP.

  • Crop the image so that there is little white space around the perimeter of the floorplan as possible.

  • Determine the known physical distance of two points and correlate them to the same two points on the floor plan. For example, the width of a room or the length of a hallway.

    You’ll need this information to set the scale. If you don’t have this information, you can look for a standard doorway on the floorplan and scale to a typical width of 0.91 meters (3 feet).

Video Overview

In this video, we're going to upload and scale our floor plan image. So to start, let's go to location, click Live View, Add Floor Plan and let's give it a meaningful name. In this case, I'll give you guys a template, Call it company name Floor. Let's call it N Click OK Upload image and my image happens to be in Downloads.

It could be in any folder that you choose. Click upload. OK. So a couple of important points about the image itself.

You want to make sure that it's either a PNG image, a GIF image or a jpg. And then also you want to make sure that you don't have a lot of white space around the image. In this case, I have a large looking buffer right here. This is just part of what we show in the dashboard.

The actual image itself is contained to about this rectangle that I'm drawing out right there, so there's not a lot of white space.
