Map
Visualise your park on an interactive map and draw terrain boundaries
Last updated on
On the map you see at a glance which terrains are free, reserved or occupied, for every day you choose. You also draw the boundaries of your terrains here, so Tillor knows their size, and you measure distances. You manage the terrains themselves under Terrains.
Good to know
- The map always opens on today. Your style, labels and layers are saved, though.
- Checked-out and cancelled reservations do not count for colour, departure label or double booking.
- The labels with nights and departure disappear below zoom level 17.5. The terrain name stays.
- A terrain without a drawn boundary is not on the map. You can only draw with Edit Mode on.
- The map opens on the map centre you set under Settings > Map. That same point also determines the weather.
Opening the map
Go to ParkMap. You immediately see all terrains with their occupancy status.
- Green area - bookable terrain is free
- Grey area - terrain is non-bookable and has no active stay on the chosen date (no reservation or occupation); nights and departure labels are missing
- Cyan area - reservation booked, not checked in yet (also on later days in the stay period as long as there is no check-in)
- Blue area - reservation checked in (active stay on the chosen date)
- Yellow area - the terrain has an active occupation (long-term rental; applies on every chosen date as long as the occupation runs)
- Red area (light overlay, red border) - double booking: overlapping reservation periods on the same terrain
Click a terrain on the map to open a pop-up with the name, reservations, any active occupation (guest) and shortcuts.
Choosing a date
To the right of Map settings you choose a date (today by default). The map then shows how the terrains look on that day. After a refresh of the page the date is back on today; only the other map settings (style, labels, layers) are kept. Checked out and cancelled reservations do not count for colour, departure label or double booking (they also do not appear in the pop-up on the map). For free pitches a label with a moon icon and the number of nights until the next check-in is shown under the terrain name. For a reservation or occupation with a departure date a label with a departure icon and the number of nights until checkout is shown (0 = today). Hover over a label for the full text. In case of a double booking (two or more reservations with overlapping stay periods on the same terrain) the terrain gets a red border and a light red overlay; a red triangle icon appears before the terrain number. In the pop-up you see a warning with the reservations involved. Below zoom level 17.5 the map hides the nights and departure labels automatically; the terrain name stays visible. Zoom in to at least 17.5 (or turn Nights and checkout off in the map settings) to see those little labels. When zoomed out, terrain names are shown smaller so they overlap less.
Layers and colours
At the bottom left are three buttons: Layers, Export PDF and Map settings, with the date picker to the right of them. With Layers you decide what you see and how the terrains are coloured.
- Under Colors you choose Occupancy or Terrain type. With Occupancy the terrains are coloured as described above. With Terrain type each terrain gets the Map color of its type, see Terrain types.
- With Occupancy, under Terrain layers there is a tick per kind: Free, Reserved, Checked in, Occupied, Non-bookable and Double booking. Remove a tick to hide those terrains.
- Under Terrain types you choose which types appear on the map. No type belongs to terrains without a type.
With Export PDF you download a PDF with the terrains that are on the map now: name, size, gas and calculated tariff, on the chosen date.
Map settings
With Map settings you adjust the display.
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Style | Satellite, Hybrid or Streets |
| Edit Mode | Show the tools to draw and edit terrain boundaries |
| Terrain Names | Show terrain names on the map. Only works if at least one layer is on |
| Nights and checkout | Show next to the terrain names how many nights are free and when a stay departs. Only works if Terrain Names is on |
Your settings are saved automatically.
Setting the map default
Under SupportSettingsMap you decide where the map opens and how it is rotated.
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Map centre | Click on the map or drag the pin to the middle of your park. The coordinates are shown below it. |
| Map bearing | The compass direction in degrees (0-360) in which the map opens. |
The map centre also counts outside the map. It is the place the weather is fetched for under ParkWeather, and address suggestions when you fill in an address give priority to places nearby. If you have not set an Access point location under Apple Wallet, Apple Wallet and Google Wallet use the map centre for the access pass. See Organisation. If the centre is in the wrong place, the weather will not be right either.
Drawing terrain boundaries
With edit mode you record the exact boundary of a terrain on the map. Tillor calculates the size in m² from it, and the tariff formula uses that.
- Go to Park > Map
- Click Map settings at the bottom left
- Turn on Edit Mode
- Click the desired points on the map to draw a polygon
- Close the polygon by clicking the starting point
- In the dialog, select the terrain you want to link
- Click "Update"
The terrain now appears as a coloured area on the map.
Terrains without a drawn location are at the top of the selection list, so you can find and link them easily.
Measuring distances
With the measuring tool you can quickly measure distances and areas on the map - handy when laying out the site or estimating distances between locations.
- At the top left of the map click Measure Distance or Measure Area
- Place points on the map (close an area by clicking the starting point)
- The measurement is shown on the map; use Clear Measurements to start over
Opening a terrain from the map
Via the map you can quickly navigate to a terrain:
- Click a terrain on the map
- The pop-up shows the name, occupancy status, active reservations and, for an occupation, the guest
- Click "View details" to go to the detail page
- As long as there is no active occupation, you can start "Create reservation"
What happens after drawing?
- The terrain gets a colour on the map and Tillor fills in the Surface area on the terrain page.
- The Calculated tariff is recalculated, because the size counts. See Terrains.
- The Total Surface Area at the top of the terrain list now includes the terrain.
