Features.
Venue maps
Venue plans & layers
Overlay venue drawings on the map. Switch layers, adjust opacity and choose which plans appear by default. Teams can move between the site overview and individual operational layouts.
Saved views & measuring
Save useful map positions, including zoom and orientation. Administrators can share views and set a default starting view. Use the measuring tool to check distances on the map.
Notes & attachments
Place notes at a location and add photos, documents or a checklist. Search site information, review note history, and archive notes when they are no longer needed on the live map.
Tasks & checklists
Assignment & progress
Assign work to individuals or groups. Track Open, In Progress, Blocked, Resolved and Closed statuses, with priorities, due dates and tags to organise the workload.
Map pins & personal work
Place tasks on the venue map or keep work unplaced until a location is known. Give pins short labels and colours. My Work brings assigned tasks together for the person doing them.
Checklists & context
Break tasks into checklist items, attach supporting files and keep task conversations alongside the work. Duplicate a task when repeating the same type of job.
Incidents
Location & classification
Record an incident at its location, set its priority and associate it with an operational area or category. Keep involved teams and assigned responders visible.
Incident log
Use the dedicated incident log to enter and review incidents. Follow status changes and activity history as the response develops, while keeping the map available for context.
Areas & zones
Operational boundaries
Draw and reshape polygons for operational areas and safety zones. Name an area, add information and set its severity. Move the entire outline or adjust individual vertices.
Shared checklists
Add checklists to notes and areas. People who can see the item can tick it off; the creator or an administrator manages the list’s structure. Concurrent ticks are merged.
Geofencing & capacity
Where configured, track entry and exit, monitor occupancy and warn about dangerous zones or capacity limits. These features depend on incoming location updates.
Team communication
Channels & direct messages
Use an event-wide channel, group channels and direct messages. Mentions, unread indicators, typing status and read receipts help teams follow conversations.
Voice notes & files
Send recorded voice notes, photos and documents. Voice notes are stored messages rather than a live radio channel; server retention is seven days, with played clips also cached on the device.
Live presence & location
See who is online and share location updates while connected. Crew location depends on device permissions and the availability of location updates.
Crew & access
Groups & permissions
Organise people into custom groups and separate everyday users, user administrators and full administrators. Control which notes, tasks and areas each group can access.
Focused crew devices
Restrict a device’s account to tasks assigned to that person or their groups. Use group-scoped accounts when a team should only see information for its own groups.
Joining an event
Use configured single sign-on, QR access presets and optional self-signup. Self-signup requests require approval; administrators can assign the people responsible for reviewing them.
Mobile & offline
Browser & installed web app
Use the same workspace on a desktop, tablet or phone. Install SCAD Maps as a progressive web app for access from the home screen, without an app-store download.
Downloaded venue maps
Download venue layers while connected and choose the download quality. In an active session, downloaded maps and cached notes and areas remain available through a connection loss.
Connection requirements
Sign in before heading out. A full app reload currently requires an online session refresh. Live chat, shared location updates and server changes need connectivity. The optional vector basemap is not included in venue downloads.
Optional integrations
monday.com
Synchronise tasks between SCAD Maps and monday.com, including status, assignees, priority, due dates and location. Configure boards and group mappings, with task comments mirrored into the workflow. Inbound note and zone sync is not supported.
Machinery GPS
Connect the Eyon machinery integration to show tracker positions on the map. Name trackers, customise their appearance and control which groups can see them. GPS administrators can manage machinery without full user-management access.
Rain radar
Enable rain radar to view weather information over the map. Provider configuration and connectivity are required. Integrations are enabled and configured per event instance.
Administration & export
Event dashboard
Manage users, groups, layers, tasks, incidents, notes and areas from the dashboard. Search and filters help find the relevant work across a busy event.
Exports & history
Export event records, with the option to bundle photos. Note history and activity records provide context for changes, while archived notes can be restored.
Appearance & updates
Choose light or dark mode and adjust interface size. Available app updates are offered with a reload prompt so the crew can choose when to apply them.
