We’re excited to announce major improvements to the Project Creation feature on Orbify! With a redesigned interface and enhanced tools, creating and managing project areas is now easier, faster, and more intuitive than ever.

A Smoother Workflow

The revamped interface simplifies every step of project area creation, from reviewing to drawing and editing. Whether you’re starting fresh or modifying an existing project, the new tools make the process smooth and hassle-free.

Expanded File Format Support

You can now upload a wider variety of file formats, including:

  • CSV files

  • Vector files

This flexibility ensures that you can work with the data you already have, no matter the format.

New Tools for Error-Free Boundaries

Defining project areas has never been this precise. Our new tools allow you to:

  • Quickly fix errors in project boundaries.

  • Edit vertices to adjust the shape as needed.

  • Delete shapes easily if necessary.

These features help you maintain accuracy and ensure your project areas are exactly as required.

Flexible Drawing Options

When creating a new project area, you now have more ways to define your boundaries:

  1. Upload a file: Use the newly supported formats to upload existing data.

  2. Draw directly on the map:

    • Create a polygon for complex shapes.

    • Draw a circle for simple, uniform areas.

Multipolygon Projects Made Easy

If you’re working with multipolygons, the interface will ask if you want to treat them as a single project or divide them into multiple ones. This gives you the flexibility to organize your data based on your specific needs.

Highlighting for Easy Identification

When you work on a specific shape, it will now be highlighted for easy identification. This ensures you can focus on the right area, especially in projects with multiple overlapping elements.

Conclusion

We’re committed to making project management as seamless as possible. The latest updates to the Project Creation feature are designed to save you time, reduce errors, and give you full control over your work.

Start exploring the new tools today, and see how much easier your workflow can be. We can’t wait to hear what you think!
