Draw a Location on the Map

1. Select the appropriate Geometry Type

   Notes:

   • You can clear out a drawing by clicking “Clear All”:
     

   • Point: Click the map at the location
     

   • Line: Draw a line on the map

     1. Set the Geometry Type to Line. Check the Snap feature to align with nearby features
        

        Note:

        Check the Snap box to align with nearby features
        

     2. Click a point on the map to create the starting point of the line
        

     3. Move your cursor to the next point and click again to create a segment
        

        Note:

        To add intersections, click on the line itself, not the endpoints

     4. Repeat as needed to draw additional connected segments
        

        Note:

        For water pipe assets, the direction in which you draw the line will determine the flow direction, depending on your user permissions.

     1. Set the Geometry Type to Polygon
        

        Note:

        Check the Snap box to align with nearby features

     3. Click a new point for each additional corner
        

     4. Click on the starting point to complete the polygon
        

        Note:

        You may also double-click to place a point and automatically complete the polygon

     5. Modify the polygon as needed

        Note:

        • Click on an existing point to reshape the polygon

        • Click a new spot on any line to create a new point and change the shape of the polygon
