Working With The Map

Prev Next

The Map screen provides a map view of your requests or scaffolds. This is particularly useful in finding the exact location of a request or scaffold on a job site. On the Map screen, requests and scaffold will be indicated by a pin and will denote the location of the request or scaffold.

Note that the Map is configured in the Settings screen. This is where you can add a Mapbox token to use satellite maps.

To scroll around the map, click and hold the left mouse button and move the mouse. Use the roller to zoom in and out.

Any scaffold that has been created within the system will be marked by a pin. These pins’ colour will vary depending upon the status of the request or scaffold. Please see the table below for examples.

The request/scaffold map pin will also display the request type, the ID, and the priority. For more information on the Request section, please see the Request Details section.


The scaffold pin differs slightly. Please see below for details.

Map View

The map can be viewed in two ways.

Street View

Street maps are the typical default maps that you see on applications like Google Maps and other online mapping sites. When zoomed in, they show the streets, landmarks, and individual structures.

Satellite image

A satellite image is a photographic view of the map, much like you would see on Google Earth.

You can change the map view to a satellite image map view by selecting Satellite from the Street/Satellite button.

Note: You need to add a Mapbox token to use satellite maps.
