Site Plans and Turf
Draw the job on the property across seven layers, and get turf measured net of the canopy over it.
A site plan is the job drawn on the property: where the property ends, what has to survive, where the chipper goes, and how much lawn there actually is.
Open a site and choose Site plan.
The seven layers
- Property — where the property ends.
- Structures — house, shed, driveway, hardscape.
- Access — how equipment gets in and out.
- Work zones — drop zones, staging, equipment placement.
- Protect — beds and features that must survive the day.
- Turf — lawn you mow, treat, or price by the square foot.
- Notes — callouts and labels.
Draw areas, lines, circles and labels. Undo and redo work as you expect, layers can be hidden, and saves are atomic, so two people editing cannot quietly overwrite each other.
Four basemaps: Plan, Satellite, Ortho and Hybrid.
The ground ledger
As you draw, it keeps a running account of the ground: property, structures, canopy and open ground.
Turf comes back net of the canopy over it. The square footage you quote is the square footage you will actually treat, not the raw polygon.
County parcel lines
In Indiana, the recorded parcel boundary is drawn as a dashed underlay and one click adopts it as your property line. It is county records rather than a survey, and it says so on screen.
Other counties are added on request.
Onto the estimate
Turf square footage can be pulled straight onto an estimate line, so the number you measured is the number you price.
