In a hurry?

From the main Preplans (map) view:

  • Switch to "Edit Mode."

  • Click on "New"

  • Choose a type to start (you can't go wrong :-))

Here is a quick video for preplanning on the fly with your phone:

The following video shows you how to enter a current preplan you may have on hand into Blazemark.

Types of Preplans

We have a simple way to create different types of preplans:

  • Single Structure -- standalone structures -- suitable for commercial businesses. You will also see structure templates as choices.

  • Office Park/Campus Style -- multiple structures under one "parent" preplan -- suitable for schools, manufacturing sites, office parks, malls, etc.;

  • Structure with Site Details: structure preplan plus site info, staging areas, hazmats on the grounds, etc.

From the preplan overview page, you can click on "New" to see the following dialog to get started (it will look different than below).

Our Approach

If you have a single structure that you want to preplan, then choose "Single Structure" or select from one of the available templates.

If you want to enter multiple buildings for a given preplan, select the "Office Park/Campus Style."
