Available with the ArcGIS Indoors Spaces extension.
With Indoors Floor Plan Editor, you can create floor plans and edit floor plan data to reflect real-world physical changes in the workplace.
You must have privileges associated with the default Data Editor role or higher to create, open, and edit floor plans. If you're using a custom role, you must enable the Edit privilege for features in ArcGIS Enterprise to open and edit floor plans.
New floor plans can be kept private or shared with your organization. You can also update the sharing level of existing floor plans at any time.
Create a floor plan
You can use Floor Plan Editor to make edits to existing floor plans, import CAD drawings of floor plans, or create floor plans from scratch by tracing over an image. All updates are made in a plan, which is a working copy of the indoor data. You can review the updates made in a plan with others and merge them to the default plan to make the updates available in the indoor data shared to your organization.
To create a plan in Floor Plan Editor, complete the following steps:
- Verify that you are signed in to your ArcGIS organization and have privileges to create content.
- Open the Floor Plan Editor app.
- Click New Plan.
The Create Plan panel appears.
- In the Create Plan panel, provide a title, and optionally, add tags and a summary describing the plan.
- Click the Save in Folder drop-down arrow and choose the folder where the plan will be saved.
- Choose the appropriate Share With option:
- Private—The plan is only visible to you.
- Organization—The plan is visible to the organization.
- Optionally, configure Group Sharing.
- Click Create Plan.
The new plan opens in Floor Plan Editor and is ready for floor plan editing.
Open an existing floor plan
In Floor Plan Editor, you can open floor plans created by others if the floor plan is shared with the organization.
After opening the Floor Plan Editor app, a list of available floor plans appears. You can open a floor plan from the list, or create a floor plan.
Note:
If you have trouble opening a floor plan, ensure that you have the necessary permissions. Contact your Enterprise organization administrator to request access.
To delete a floor plan, click Delete 
next to the plan. You can only delete a floor plan if you created it, unless you are an administrator. Administrators can delete all plans. A plan cannot be deleted while it is open.
Floor plan editing
After creating or opening a floor plan, you can access the navigation pane containing a variety of tools for editing floor plan data in a web browser.
Any saved changes to a floor plan exist only in that plan until they are pushed to the default floor plan.
The following functionality is available when editing floor plans:
- Plan—Create, delete, open, and update sharing of plans.
- Edit—Select a feature on the map, and access the editing tools by clicking Edit
on the pop-up.Note:
Editing feature attachments is not supported.
- Draw—Draw new units or walls, and set attributes.
- Split units—Split a unit into two units and insert a wall where you want to split the unit. Available options for the new wall are determined by the configuration option that defines walls.
- Add—Draw a new site, facility, or level and set its attributes.
- Place—Place entryways, windows, floor transitions, and furniture from the palette.
- Copy and paste—Copy and paste objects in the drawing.
- Merge—Merge multiple Units or Details features into a single feature.
- Manage plan—Push changes from the current plan to the default plan, or pull changes from the default plan to the current plan.
- Import CAD—Create floor plans by importing data from CAD drawings.
- Grid—Customize the grid spacing, rotation, and placement.
- Images—Add floor plan images and adjust their transparency to trace over while drawing features.
Import CAD drawings
You can import CAD drawings to create floor plans. After a CAD drawing finishes loading, you can define room boundaries and doors. You can also define lines that represent detail features such as walls, windows, stairs, and furniture.
Note:
Only CAD drawings in the form of .dwg files are supported; .dgn files are not supported.
To successfully import a CAD drawing, the drawing must meet certain requirements before being imported. If your CAD drawing has not been prepared for use in ArcGIS Indoors, you can use ArcGIS Indoors for AutoCAD to help prepare the drawing for import.

The CAD drawing must also be georeferenced so the imported floor plan appears in the correct location on the map. CAD drawings can be georeferenced using ArcGIS for AutoCAD or ArcGIS Pro. When importing CAD drawings georeferenced using ArcGIS Pro, be sure to upload the associated .prj and .wld or .wld3 files with the CAD drawing.
Note:
Once imported, the CAD drawing honors the spatial reference of the hosted feature layer that contains all of the indoors floor plan data.
Georeference a CAD drawing using ArcGIS for AutoCAD
To georeference a CAD drawing using ArcGIS for AutoCAD, perform the following steps:
- Download and install the ArcGIS for AutoCAD plug-in for Autodesk AutoCAD.
- Set the coordinate system for the CAD drawing.
- Save the CAD drawing.
You can use the CAD drawing to import floor plan data in Floor Plan Editor.
Georeference a CAD drawing using ArcGIS Pro
To georeference a CAD drawing using ArcGIS Pro, perform the following steps:
- Add the CAD drawing to a map in ArcGIS Pro.
- Georeference the CAD drawing.
- Save the transformation.
Associated .prj and .wld3 files are created in the same folder location as the CAD drawing. You can use the CAD drawing and these associated files when importing floor plan data in Floor Plan Editor.
When uploading the CAD drawing georeferenced using ArcGIS Pro, the .dwg and the associated .prj and .wld or .wld3 files are also uploaded in a zip file as an item in your ArcGIS organization. After uploading the CAD drawing, the zip file is deleted from the organization content and a hosted feature layer is created to temporarily display the lines from the CAD drawing. After the import is complete, the hosted feature layer is deleted automatically.
Caution:
Closing the browser window during the import process causes the import to fail, and uploaded items associated with the import process remain in the organization.
If you have a Sites layer in your map, you must draw a site before importing a CAD drawing to ensure that all facilities are accessible using the floor filter. The site can be a general boundary that contains the buildings planned for import. Some common site examples include a university campus or a hospital, which include a large area containing multiple facilities.
Note:
After importing a CAD drawing in the current plan, use the Manage Plan panel to push your changes before importing other CAD drawings to ensure your changes are committed.
