Custom map layers

Upload your own map images, such as a campus or venue map.

Why it helps
Give responders useful reference layers with an identified owner and update process.

How to configure it
Confirm members allow location sharing in the Responder app, and decide how long a position should stay on the map.

Before you begin
Mapping module enabled

Examples for your department
Community paramedicine and mental health response: Custom map layers: Use current operational team positions for visit coverage; choose a location lifetime and follow the service’s location-access procedures.
Search and rescue: Custom map layers: Set a location lifetime suitable for remote search updates; use search-area POIs and distinguish stale positions from current team location.
Security companies and departments: Custom map layers: Map patrol vehicles and site POIs; review stale-location lifetime before treating an old position as current patrol coverage.
Wildland contractors: Custom map layers: Map staging, divisions and support vehicles; review device update frequency and stale location during remote assignments.
Industrial emergency response teams: Custom map layers: Map facility access points, response equipment and team positions; review indoor or weak-signal limitations and fallback procedures.
