How to Upload and View PDF Maps in IGNIS!

IGNIS uniquely supports the ability for PDF maps to be overlayed onto the dynamic base map, and viewed in 3D! There are multiple ways to upload a PDF into IGNIS and this article will go over both.

To begin! Let’s go over where PDF Maps live in IGNIS.

Select the “Maps” Button on the bottom bar on the right-hand side of the home screen.

The first screen you’re brought to is the PDF Maps section. This is where you can view all your PDF Maps! Active Maps are toggled on, indicated by a green switch. These maps are currently viewable and overlayed onto the dynamic base map. Inactive Maps are toggled off and are not on the dynamic base map. Inactive maps that have a download symbol instead of a grey toggle are maps you have access to but are not downloaded to the device.

To view more details about a map or be brought to its location, simply click on the thumbnail image of the map, and the next screen will present more details, the option to delete a map, or to view its location on the base map.
