Map View

Navigate your walk on a map in the FieldEdge mobile app

Map View shows your walk on a map — every household on your list as a pin you can tap to canvass. Use it to see what's around you and find your next stop. It's the view you land in when you start a walk.

Reading the pins

A pin's appearance tells you two things at a glance: what kind of property it is, and whether you've canvassed it.

Before canvassing

Until you've canvassed it, a pin shows whether the property is a single home or a multi-unit building:

Pin	Status	What it means
	Not Yet Canvassed (house)	A single household — one address, one or more residents
	Not Yet Canvassed (apartment)	A multi-unit building — apartments, condos, townhouses
	Next Stop (house)	The next household on your route
	Next Stop (apartment)	The next apartment building on your route

After canvassing

Once you've completed a household, its pin changes to reflect what happened:

Pin	Status	What it means
	Completed	All residents got an outcome — no special status applies
	Left Message	At least one person was marked Left Message
	No Answer	All residents were marked No Answer or skipped
	Blocked	All residents were marked Bad Info, Inaccessible, Refused, Not Interested, or Other
	Skipped	All residents were skipped

The post-canvass status pins look the same for single households and apartments. Only the Not Yet Canvassed and Next Stop pins differ by property type — so you can still spot apartments at a glance before you've visited them.

Tap any pin to open the household and canvass its residents. For what each status means, see Statuses.

Your next stop

The next stop on your walk is whichever household is currently closest to you — measured as the crow flies (straight-line distance, not driving or walking distance). As you move, the next stop updates automatically.

The bottom panel always shows your current next stop. Drag the panel up to expand it into the full list of households on your walk, or leave it collapsed to keep the map in focus.

Adding a household from the map

Tap an empty spot on the map to add a new household at that location.

Switching to List View

Use the toggle in the screen header to flip to List View. Your filters and sort order carry over.

Map View requires a data connection to start. If you start a walk while offline, the app opens in List View by default and Map View won't be available until you reconnect. See Offline Capabilities.
