Draw Scaled Floor Plans in the Field
ArcSite turns an Android phone or tablet into a mobile CAD workspace for creating floor plans, site sketches, and detailed two-dimensional drawings. Users can draw walls, openings, shapes, fills, and annotations while keeping dimensions tied to a practical scale. This makes the app useful when a project begins at a property, jobsite, classroom, or home rather than at a desktop workstation.
The setup flow can tailor sample projects, shape libraries, products, and help content around work, education, or personal use. A user can also identify detailed drawing as a first priority, keeping the starting experience focused on the kind of project being planned. That combination gives beginners a guided entry while preserving tools needed for more structured field drawings.
Capture Measurements, Photos, and Site Details
Field teams can build a drawing while collecting the information that explains what exists on site. Measurements, notes, forms, photos, and reusable shapes can stay attached to the project instead of being scattered across paper, camera rolls, and separate messages. For contractors and inspectors, this creates a clearer record for reviewing conditions after leaving the location.
ArcSite also supports workflows centered on collecting site data, whether someone is managing a project personally, working with a hired contractor, or documenting customer work as a professional. Camera, location, microphone, and nearby-device access may support relevant capture tools when needed, but Android lets users decide which permissions to grant as those tasks arise.
Turn Drawings into Takeoffs and Proposals
ArcSite connects drawing work with material and sales tasks, so lines and areas can become more than a visual plan. Depending on the selected plan and configured product library, users can calculate quantities, apply products or pricing, prepare material takeoffs, and develop estimates from information already placed in the drawing. This reduces the need to recreate measurements in a separate estimating tool.
Proposal workflows can add customer-facing details, title blocks, business information, reports, and signature steps to the same project process. The onboarding choices explicitly include estimating material requirements and creating or managing proposals, helping teams orient the workspace around how they quote jobs. Contractors who measure and sell on site can therefore move from survey notes toward a clearer client deliverable with fewer handoffs.
Export Projects and Coordinate with Teams
Completed ArcSite drawings can move into common project and CAD workflows through PDF, PNG, DXF, and DWG exports. PDF output can be prepared with page orientation, paper size, margins, scale, drawing area, and photo options, while CAD formats help continue technical work in compatible desktop software. View links and project downloads offer additional ways to share a drawing without relying only on email attachments.
Cloud storage and collaboration features can keep project data available across supported devices and make it easier for teammates or outside participants to review work. Depending on account access, collaborators may receive view, download, edit, or comment permissions. These options suit field crews that need to hand measurements to estimators, present plans to customers, or coordinate revisions with office staff.
