Scale a Floorplan

After you upload or import your floorplan, you need to set the scale.

Video Overview

Okay. So now let's scale the image. So let's click setup floor plan.

Click set scale and drag and drop between two points. So now what I'm doing here is I'm selecting two points that I know the distance between in real life. And I have very high confidence that I know that the distance between these two points is 12.15 meters. So now I'm gonna click right here and say, enter a new length, 12.15 and click okay and click done. And then once we've saved the image, that's all we need to do. You just need to know two points that you know the distance between and then enter in that value like I just did.

Now click save and that's it. Now we've uploaded and we have scaled our image.
  1. From the left menu of the Juniper Mist portal, select Location > Live View.
  2. Select the site and the floorplan.
  3. Click Set Up Floorplan.
  4. Click Set Scale (near the top left corner of the floorplan).
  5. Drag a line between two points on the floorplan.

    For example, you might draw a line across the width of a room or the length of a hallway.

    Tip:

    If you don’t know the actual dimensions, look for a standard door on the floorplan and scale that door to 0.91 meters (3 feet). This will get you close to the actual scale.
  6. Click Enter a new length to scale image.
  7. Enter the measurement and the unit (Meters or Feet).
    Ensure that the scale is accurate. If a hallway is 60 feet long, the floorplan needs to show it as 60 feet long. Otherwise, the location information will be inaccurate.
  8. Click Done.
  9. Click Save in the upper-right corner of the page.
