Walkthrough

The interactive map

The interactive map is where a project becomes visible: claims, collars, drill traces, samples, structures, water sites and any GIS layers you've brought in, over the base imagery of your choice.

Layers

The panel on the left lists your map's layers — land holdings, drill collars, traces, and everything else you add. Toggle them, reorder them, and add new ones from your project's data. A project can hold more than one saved map (a drilling map, a land-position map, a presentation map), each with its own layer set — switch between them at the top of the panel.

Base imagery

Satellite, streets, terrain — pick per map. You can also drape your own imagery: georeferenced rasters uploaded as project files (a geophysics grid, a historic mine map) become base layers you can fade in and out.

Styling

Point and polygon layers colour by their attributes — holdings by claim status, collars by hole type, geology by lithology. Colours come from your project's lookup definitions, and there are two ways to set them: the display settings page (the manual surface), or simply asking Petra — "give my lithologies sensible industry colours" proposes a full scheme you approve in one click. Either way the same colours follow your data onto the strip logs and the 3D scene.

Your map layers (geology units, contacts, faults and other lines and areas) draw on the project map, in QGIS and on crew phones; they are not on shared review maps, public embeds or in the 3D viewer yet. Map layers under Sharing your data covers them.

Sharing a view

Maps can be published as read-only embeds for a website or an investor page — that, plus datarooms, is covered under Sharing your data.
