If you’d prefer to watch a video, see further down.

Drawing / editing project boundaries from a manually created project

To draw, edit or delete a project boundary, you need to edit the project.

Click on the edit icon on the project summary page (or the stage page if you’re editing a stage boundary).

If you don’t need to edit the project summary, click ‘next’.

This will take you to the project boundary page.

If you’re editing a stage boundary, you will be taken immediately to the boundary editing page.

If you need to add an additional shape, click the ‘draw polygon’ button. If you need to edit or delete, click the corresponding buttons as labelled below.

Drawing a project boundary

1. Click the drawing icon.

2. Click on the map where you want to start drawing your project.

3. Using your mouse, click each point along the road/shape you want to draw.

4. To finish drawing, double click, or click ‘finish’ in the drawing menu box.

Editing a project boundary

1. To edit an existing boundary, click on the edit tool. This will create anchor points (white squares) around each shape that you can edit.

2. Click on an anchor point to move it. Dragging the anchor points will sometimes create additional anchor points either side of the initial anchor point you moved, allowing you to create a more precise shape.

3. Click save in the drawing menu bar to commit the change.

4. Click ‘save project’ to save all of your changes.

Deleting a project boundary

Please note all projects and stages need at least one boundary.

If you need to delete a project boundary:

1. Click on the trash can in the drawing tool.

2. Click on the shape you want to delete. This will make the shape disappear. If there are many shapes to delete, you can select ‘clear all’ from the drawing tools menu.

3. To commit the change, click ‘save’ in the drawing tool menu.

4. Click ‘save project’ to save all of your changes.
