Uploads
Add images, PDFs, KML, KMZ, and weather files to a design.
Add a file
Click Upload in the editor toolbar or drag files onto the map. Select the files to add and review any messages about unsupported or unreadable files.
The upload dialog lists the accepted formats and size limit. Image and map-layer uploads become design objects. Weather files are added to the organization’s weather library and selected for the design.
Uploads require an editable design.
Images and PDFs
Use an image or PDF as a site reference. Select the imported image to adjust its position, rotation, size, or appearance in the inspector.
Use draw-to-resize when you know a distance in the image. Draw the reference length, enter its real distance, and check the result against another known dimension.
KML and KMZ
KML and KMZ uploads add geographic shapes to the map. Inspect their location and visibility before using them as design references.
Where uploads show
Map layers › Imports controls imported-layer visibility. Uploaded images and KML objects also appear in the Civil lane of the Layers panel, where you can select, rename, hide, or delete them.
Weather files
Weather uploads change the weather used for modeling. Review the uploaded file and the selected source before running Model. See Weatherfiles for the supported hourly CSV format and time settings.
Downloads
Choose which imported layers to include in renderings and CAD. Keep a DXF and its accompanying images together when sharing the exported ZIP.
