# Stitching Maps

Combine multiple maps into one with a single click.

With this feature, you have the ability to stitch together neighbouring maps having some overlap. This allows you to plan smaller scans and seamlessly merge them into a single cohesive map with just one click. It's possible to stitch up to 8 maps together.

For example, divide a shopping mall hallway into multiple smaller sections and combine them later with the map stitching feature.
All you need is to map the individual segments so that there is some overlap between two neighboring parts.

To initiate the stitching process, follow these steps:

  • You can login to the Developer Portal.
  • Navigate to the maps you wish to stitch together.
  • Select multiple maps that you intend to stitch. Note that these maps should have overlapping areas.
  • Once the maps are selected, proceed to the dashboard.
  • Locate and click the "Stitch Maps" button.
  • Choose a name for stitched map.
