      Add Assets from Your Toolkit

      Mapped assets from your toolkit will fall under three general categories: lines, points, or polygons.

      Many users will have their own unique toolkit, but the process of adding tools (assets) to your map site is the same. Whether you want to add lines, points, or polygons, you will navigate and use the same steps. Depending on your project, your toolkit will have individual tool groups and tools that correspond with the work you are doing. Each asset has a corresponding Form with asset-specific fields.

      Adding assets to your map does not take many steps and it is easy to go back and edit the location or shape whenever you need. There are also assets that do not to be geolocated on your site like plans, files, photos, etc.

      1. Click on the plus icon on the left side.add assets 1
      2. Your toolkit will open and you will see each tool group with the related tools.add assets 2
      3. Click on which asset you want to add to your map. You will then be instructed to draw or place the asset on the map.

        Asset Forms:

        If you've already created the asset, you can locate the form by clicking on the asset in Table View or on the map. The asset's Form will immediately appear.asset forms 1
