Maps Management

Note

Once your headsets are linked to the organization, all maps stored on those devices are automatically synchronized with the Manager app.

• The Manager app only shows maps from linked headsets (more info: Add and Link Headsets).
• Maps are stored in your organization account, and all admins invited to your organization have access to them.
• Each map is assigned a unique ID, even if multiple maps share the same name.
• If several headsets contain maps with the same name, they will all appear in the Manager app.
  • These are not duplicates — you can differentiate them by author and last edit timestamp.
• Removing a map in the Manager app deletes it from your organization account, but not from the headset.
  • To add it back to the organization, simply open and save the map again on the headset.

Tip

Use map timestamps and author information to keep track of the latest versions when multiple copies exist across different headsets.

Community Maps & Tools

• Community maps are also listed on the web at mod.io. Browse them there for inspiration — but note that filtering by room size is only available in the Online Map Library inside the Spatial Ops app (see below).
• Once you are comfortable making maps for your own space, there is a community-built web map editor: OpsForge, developed by Sir Rorick and based on earlier work by Kropek.

Note

Both are community resources, maintained independently of Spatial Ops.

Downloading and Using Maps from Online Map Library

Aside from the maps created on your organization’s headsets, you can download maps shared by the community through the Online Map Library. Where you open the library depends on your headset platform.

Meta Quest

On one of your headsets, ideally one of the already linked headsets:

• Go to Map Editor and locate the Online Map Library by pressing the button on the upper right corner of the panel.

  

• From there you could choose different maps uploaded by various map creators. The search could be filtered based on the map name, tags and size.

  

  

• When a map is chosen and downloaded, you still need to edit that map to realign or to set up spatial markers. For more information: Setting Up Spatial Markers

• Similar when making your own maps, once the downloaded map is edited and saved, it will be synchronized with the Manager app and becomes part of your organization’s maps.

  

PICO Enterprise

On PICO Enterprise you browse the library from the Manager app, then align the downloaded map on a headset.

1. In the Manager, open the Online Map Library.

   

2. Browse and select the map you want.

   

3. Download it. The map syncs to your organization’s map list.

   

4. The map is not playable yet — it was built for someone else’s room and needs aligning to yours. On one of your headsets, open the Map Editor and press DOWNLOAD ALL to sync with your organization’s map list.

   

5. Select the downloaded map for editing.

6. Press REALIGN and manually align the map to your physical space, then SAVE.

   

The realigned map syncs back to your organization and is ready to use in a session.
