Create an Interactive Campus Map for Real Estate Projects

Modern real estate developments such as campuses, townships, and estates involve many buildings and amenities. However, they are still shown through static layouts or spreadsheets, which fragment information and hinder navigation. Therefore, MAPOG resolves these challenges by enabling an interactive campus map for real estate projects that combines geo-referenced layouts, structured attributes, indicators, and filters. As a result, users interact spatially, access details directly, and improve communication, while decision-making becomes faster and efficient.

Key Concept: Why Interactive Campus Map for Real Estate Projects Matters

Interactive maps improve how real estate projects are managed, marketed, and sold. For instance, geo-referenced layouts give buyers confidence by showing unit positions and road connectivity. In addition, attributes consolidate details like pricing, unit size, and amenities into one view, while filters let stakeholders instantly check availability by tower or phase. Moreover, icons, images, and videos guide navigation during site visits, while updates highlight construction progress. As a result, developers save time, partners engage effectively, and investors trust the project vision.

Steps to build Interactive Campus Map for Real Estate Projects

1. Create a New Map

First, head to MAPOG and click on “Create”. Then provide a title and description, and click Save to initialize your project.

There, provide a title, and set Geometry type as point. Then add attributes one by one, using types such as select for building type, multiselect for available facilities, number for capacity or rooms, Boolean for expandability, and images for interiors, exteriors, or construction phases, then save it.

4. Filter and Group Data

Now, to make exploration easier, use the filtering option and segment points by attributes such as type, range, or category. This ensures stakeholders focus on the information most relevant to them.
