Placement Map

Open the Map page and click the placement button. Select a QR code or poster, then click on the map to drop a pin at the physical location.

• You can search for an address or manually pan and zoom to find the right spot.
• Add an optional note to describe the location (e.g. 'Front window, Main Street').
• Each placement is tied to a specific QR code copy or poster.

Open the Scan page on your phone to register placements in the field. Point your camera at a printed QR code and Dottymap will detect it, capture your GPS coordinates, and create a placement automatically.

• The scanner uses your device camera and GPS, so grant both permissions when prompted.
• Once a code is detected, you can label the location (the address is filled in automatically).
• Confirm the placement and it appears on the map immediately.
• A session log keeps track of every code you place during a single outing.

Markers on the map are color-coded to show placement status at a glance.

• Green markers indicate active placements with recent scan activity.
• Red markers indicate stale placements with no scans in the configured period.
• Gray markers indicate removed placements.

Click any marker on the map to see its scan count, placement date, and associated campaign. Compare locations to find your top-performing spots.

• Filter placements by campaign to focus on a specific project.
• Stale placements are flagged automatically when no scans have been recorded recently.
• Use this data to decide which locations deserve more posters or a refresh.

Click a marker to open the placement details. From there you can update the note, move the pin, or mark the placement as removed.

• Marking a placement as removed keeps the data for historical reference.
• You can reactivate a removed placement if the poster goes back up.
