How We Create Plans:
-
Can I add a new structure that is not currently on my property to my site plan?
Yes, once you select your site plan and enter the site address you will see a dropdown menu that says "Add Non-Existing Feature (Structure):" You will select the number of features you would like to add to the site plan. In the description area you can describe the dimensions of the feature and w... -
Can I get hard copies mailed to me?
We do not mail any plans but we recommend using www.fedexoffice.com for easy uploading, ordering and delivery. It can all be done online and is a simple and inexpensive option. The other option is to send the PDF file to a local print shop such as Staples, Fedex Office, Mail Boxes etc. and many ... -
How accurate are the site plans?
We use GIS data with arial imagery to create our site plans. Geographic Information System (GIS) accuracy can vary depending on a variety of factors, including but not limited to the quality of the input data, the accuracy of the spatial reference system used, and the precision of the analysis me... -
How recent is the satellite imagery
The satellite imagery is generally 1-12 months old with most property images averaging around 3 months. If you are trying to capture new additions or subtractions from your property on a site plan and the work was done within the last 3 months it is likely we will not pick it up. That's ok! If we... -
I need a custom sized site plan other than the standard 11" X 17". How do I do that?
All of our site plans are formatted to be printed on 11"X17" paper. This is the default size of most cities. Home printers generally only print 8 1/2" X 11" which does not leave enough room on the site plan for city stamps and notes. Occasionally municipalities will request other sizes which fal... -
Is it possible to have someone come to my home?
We do not do site visits. All of our site plans are created remotely. If you require a site visit you would want to call a local surveyor or architect. -
What areas can you do site plans for?
We can create site plans in all of the US, Australia, Canada, UK and much of Europe. If for some reason we are unable to find the data to create your plan we will issue an immediate refund. -
What file format is the plan sent in?
All site plans are delivered in a PDF format which is the most universally accepted printing format. During checkout you will also have an option to order the DWG file which is the AutoCAD source file. If you select this option we will zip that file and send it to you as well. If you need anothe... -
What software is used to create the site plan?
All of our site plans are created using AutoCAD. AutoCAD is a commercial computer-aided design (CAD) and drafting software application. This is a powerful software that allows our designers to create the plans in a scaled environment. If you have never used AutoCAD it's important to know that it... -
What sources do you use to create the site plan?
We use GIS, County parcel data, Satellite imagery and client provided information to create your site plan. We license a large data set that contains Nationwide Parcel Data for both residential and commercial properties. This data allows us to access information of lot dimensions, legal descript...
