MapItRight
GIS Overlay · See more, know more

Unlock the power of geospatial data

Upload JSON-formatted GIS overlays and import legacy KML maps to view property plots, ownership details, city codes, county bounds, and state boundaries on the same Google Maps canvas where you design fiber plant. Refer to the layers you need, then draw accurate routes with full area context.

The problem

Why fiber design needs more than plant data alone

Jurisdictional context lives elsewhere

When you build in a specific area, you need city codes, county boundaries, and state limits on the map while you design. If that context stays in separate files, your routes are harder to validate before construction starts.

Legacy maps never joined your live project

Property plots, ownership records, and old KML layers often sit outside your current design workflow. Teams redraw plant in one tool and reference boundaries in another.

Expansion planning lacks area intelligence

Choosing the next route requires more than existing plant lines. You need parcel boundaries, service areas, and custom planning layers visible while you compare build options.

How it works

How GIS Overlays work in MapItRight

Import, reference, design.

STEP 01

Import your GIS layers

Upload JSON-formatted GIS data or import existing KML maps and convert them for use in MapItRight. Bring in city, county, and state boundary layers, property plots, and any custom datasets your project depends on.

STEP 02

Reference overlays on the map

View imported layers on top of your Google Maps project canvas alongside cables, locations, and fiber design. Use city codes, county bounds, ownership details, and other geospatial context while you plan routes.

STEP 03

Design and draw with full context

Draw fiber plant and create GIS overlays directly in MapItRight while referencing the layers you imported. Keep design work and boundary context on one map so outside plant stays accurate for the area you are building.

Capabilities

Why GIS Overlays are useful

Import existing maps

Transition from legacy systems by importing KML maps and converting them to JSON for MapItRight. Keep continuity from older GIS workflows without redrawing everything from scratch.

Know your areas

Identify better fiber routes when you expand. Overlay parcels, service areas, and boundary data to plan network growth with clearer area analysis.

Custom overlays

Add JSON-formatted layers tailored to your operation. Franchise zones, municipal planning areas, internal datasets, and other custom geospatial context all sit on the same map.

City, county, and state bounds

Layer jurisdictional boundaries and related area data while designing in a specific municipality, county, or state so routes respect the geography you are building in.

Property plots and ownership

See property boundaries and ownership details on top of your fiber plant before you commit a route, not after field crews find a conflict.

Draw overlays in MapItRight

Import reference layers, then draw and maintain GIS overlays directly in your MapItRight project alongside the fiber network you are designing.

We tried a few tools before MapItRight. It felt easier for our team and the pricing was actually affordable.

FAQ

Frequently asked.

The GIS Overlay module accepts JSON and JSON-formatted GIS data as its primary format. You can also import KML and KMZ maps and convert them for use inside MapItRight.
