How It Works

From a static PDF to a live interactive map in six simple steps.

1

Create a Project

Set up your new development. Give it a name, an address, and configure your branding. You can upload your own logo and set your primary brand colour so the map matches your own website perfectly.

2

Upload the Plan

Say goodbye to bulky vector PDFs. Just export your master subdivision plan to a standard image format (JPG, PNG, or WebP) and upload it directly to LotLayer. We'll use this as the base layer for your interactive map.

3

Add Lot Data

You can manually enter details for each lot, or quickly import them in bulk from a CSV file. Include essential information like lot numbers, prices, land sizes (m²), frontages, and their initial availability status.

4

Draw Lot Boundaries

Use our intuitive visual map editor to trace your lots over the plan image. Just click to draw polygons. If your engineers use MicroStation or AutoCAD, you can bypass manual drawing entirely by importing a DXF file.

5

Publish & Share

Toggle your project to "Published". We'll give you a direct, shareable link to send to clients, alongside a simple HTML iframe tag. Hand the iframe code to your web developer, and they can embed it onto your website in seconds.

6

Manage Ongoing

As lots are reserved and sold, manage them from your dashboard. Update prices, flip a lot to "Under Offer", and view all buyer enquiries submitted through the map—everything stays in sync across your site instantly.
