# How to build a new map

## If you don't have a map of your car park or workspace, this guide will guide you step-by-step on how to create a new interactive map directly within Ronspot.

---

### **Step 1: Navigate to 'Zones and maps'**

- Log in to the [Ronspot admin panel](https://admin.ronspot.ie/).
- Navigate to `Spaces > Zones/Maps` in the left sidebar.

---

### **Step 2: Add a new zone**

![screenshot-new-zone3](https://help.ronspot.co/hs-fs/hubfs/screenshot-new-zone3.png?width=670&height=669&name=screenshot-new-zone3.png)

#### **1. Click on ‘Add zone’**:

- Click the `Add Zone` button to start the process of setting up a new map.

#### **2. Complete the Zone Form**:

- `Zone name`: Enter a descriptive name for the new zone.
- `Zone type`: Select the appropriate zone type—either **Parking** or **Office**.
- `Map type`: Choose **‘Create a custom map’** to add a visual representation of your zone.
- `Time zone`: Select the correct timezone for this zone.
- Then click `Complete`

---

### **Step 3: Define spaces on the map**

#### **1. Drag and drop items from the Construction Kit**:

![BuildMap1](https://help.ronspot.co/hs-fs/hubfs/BuildMap1.png?width=670&height=335&name=BuildMap1.png)

- On the left sidebar, find the `Construction Kit` section. This tool allows you to add individual spaces to the map.
- Drag the item from the Construction Kit and **drop it onto the desired location on the map** where you want to create a space.

#### **2. Complete space details**:

![BuildMap2](https://help.ronspot.co/hs-fs/hubfs/BuildMap2.png?width=670&height=335&name=BuildMap2.png)

A popup will appear, prompting you to enter details about the space:

- `Space name`: Give a short name to the space .
- `Space type` 
    - **Office zone:** Select the type of space you wish to create (desk or meeting room).
    - **Parking zone:** Specify the types of vehicles allowed to park in this space (size, fuel type, accessibility, vehicle sharing).
- `Booking options`: Set how far in advance the space can be booked.
- `Booking duration`: Choose whether the space can be booked for the full day or by the hour.
- Click`Save` to confirm the space details.

#### **3. Adjust the space position**:

![BuildMap3](https://help.ronspot.co/hs-fs/hubfs/BuildMap3.png?width=670&height=335&name=BuildMap3.png)  
After saving, you can rotate and move the item on the gird.

- **Move**: Click on the shape, hold down and drag
- **Rotate:** Mouse over the item and click on the arrow in the top left corner

---

### **Step 4: Repeat for additional spaces**

**Repeat the process**: Repeat the same process for each additional space you need to add to the map.

**Tip:** To quickly duplicate a space, right-click on the existing one and select `Copy`. Then, right-click on the desired cell on the map and choose `Paste`. This will create a space with the same rotation.

 Once all spaces are defined and configured, review the map to ensure everything is correctly placed and labeled.

 

---

By following these steps, you can successfully upload and configure a new map in Ronspot, ensuring your workspace or parking area is ready for efficient management.
