Floor plans are helpful to understand the general layout of a site. You can also use a floor plan as a layer or area in your project, see also Import an Area into your Project and Import a Layer into your Project. For situations where no floor plan is available, Sphere XG provides the floor plan generation feature in the Viewer.
NOTE: The floor plan creation is charged with 50 tokens. For further information on tokens, see Manage Tokens on the Subscriptions Page.

2. Select the Generate floor plan menu entry.
The following form will be displayed:
3. Select whether the floor plan should have Metric or Imperial units.
4. Click Continue.
An order summary will be displayed stating the order details:

This form also displays the remaining tokens of your workspace.
5. After you have checked the order summary, click Submit in the confirmation form.
6. Click OK in this final form to close it.
The floor plan generation will take up to three business days. You will be notified via email when the floor plan is available for download.
At the end of the ordering process, a feedback form will be displayed. Please let us know what you think about the ordering process.

Once the floor plan is ready, you will be notified via email. You can then download the floor plan in .pdf, .png, .jpg and .svg format either in the email or in the Cloud activity form.
The download links in the email will expire after 30 days but you will still be able to open and download the floor plan in the Sphere XG project in the Cloud activity form.
