Floor Plans and Asset Pins
How to upload floor plans, split or map PDFs, pin assets, review parsed room candidates, draw missing rooms, and keep spatial data trustworthy.
Updated September 15, 2026
Floor plans give technicians and supervisors a 2D view of where assets sit inside a facility: where equipment is, what room it belongs to, what work is nearby, and which assets still need to be placed.
Where floor plans live
A floor plan is an image attached to a floor or building location node, not a separate hierarchy. Asset pins are stored on the asset as normalized coordinates so they survive image re-uploads at different resolutions. The location tree remains the source of truth: if an asset belongs to Room 201, the plan should help users see Room 201, not create a second version of where the asset lives.
Upload a plan
Open the facility floor-plans page, choose the floor or building, and upload a PNG, JPG, or PDF. With no floor nodes and a multipage PDF, Rivolq can split it into one plan per page; with existing floor nodes, it previews the pages and asks you to map each one. Uploads are checked for file type, size, storage quota, and whether the location can host a plan. Uploads count toward organization storage. Details in Uploading and replacing floor plans.
Pin assets
In edit mode, place assets from the unplaced-assets tray by picking an asset and clicking the plan. Pin only assets physically on that plan. Use the tray as a cleanup list: if an asset cannot be pinned, check whether its location belongs under the floor or building that owns the plan, and clean locations first rather than pinning roughly. See Placing and managing asset pins.
Parsed rooms
When enabled, Rivolq detects room candidates, labels, and wall geometry from retained PDF data, with states like queued, running, completed, failed, or review-required. Treat them as evidence to review, not a perfect map. Reconcile each candidate by choosing Link, Create location, Rename, Ignore, Reject, or Delete before relying on pins; deleting or rejecting a shape does not move pins by itself. If parsing misses rooms, draw polygons manually and link them. See Reviewing parsed rooms and plan readiness.
Re-uploads and troubleshooting
Re-uploading replaces the plan image for that location and updates the version. A same-layout re-upload keeps pins useful; a substantial layout change means reviewing pins and room shapes afterwards. If a plan does not load, the signed image URL may have expired, so refresh and retry. A trustworthy setup has clean floor nodes, uploaded plans, reconciled rooms, and placed assets.
