Spatial Map’s AI Map tool uses AI floor plan recognition to draft an indoor map from your floor plan: walls, doors, racks, labels, areas, stairs, lifts and escalators, on the whole floor or one part of it. The drafts appear on the map for review; you add all of them or kind by kind, and they become ordinary shapes you can edit. It drafts; a person checks.

Before a run you choose which kinds to include; the choice is remembered in your browser. Each kind becomes the same shape you would draw by hand:
AI Map works on a floor plan that is already uploaded and aligned — an image, a PDF sheet or a DWG. A DWG is still a picture once imported, and AI Map reads that picture, not the CAD entities. Open the tool in the editor (key A), pick the floor plan and choose What to map: Whole floor, or Part of the floor, where you drag a rectangle over the area to read.
Press Map this floor or Map this area. A progress screen follows the run step by step, and Stop cancels it. A workspace runs one job at a time; if you reload or open the tool again while it runs, the panel picks the job up again. Details are in the AI Map docs.
The drafts are drawn on the map in a colour per kind, and the panel says what was found. Add all to map takes everything; or open a kind to add it, discard it, or look through its items one by one. Drafts that match a shape already on that floor are skipped and counted, so running AI Map again over a mapped area does not create duplicates.
Added drafts are ordinary shapes: move them, reshape them, rename them, delete them. Map another part clears the review and switches to Part of the floor for the next area; Finish closes the review.
We don’t publish an accuracy figure, because results depend on the drawing. As a rule of thumb from the plans we have run:
AI Map is available on paid plans and during the 7-day trial. There is a monthly limit on the server; if you map a great deal in a short time, the panel asks you to wait. When a trial has ended, the panel points to the plans.
AI Map is a drafting aid, not a surveyor. It saves the slow part of tracing a large plan, but the map is only as right as the review. If you would rather not do either, our team maps the building for you as a custom service.
| AI Map | You | |
|---|---|---|
| Walls, doors, racks, areas, stairs, lifts | Drafts them from the plan | Review, add, fix or discard |
| Names and codes | Drafts labels on the map | Name shapes to match your WMS, register or BMS |
| Heights, rack levels, floor elevation | Drafts use the tools’ default settings | Adjust them to the real building |
| Live data | — | Bind tables to the shapes with data links |
