Base Camp Maps
The map drawing tool built for location managers and UPMs, not repurposed from something else.Location managers have been drawing base camp maps in PowerPoint for years — no scale, no satellite imagery, just rectangles and guesswork. BaseMapper draws them on real satellite imagery, with vehicle templates at actual dimensions, snap-to-edge placement, and PDFs sized for the call sheet.

BaseMapper
13 / ON SET, IN YOUR POCKET
The same map, on location.
A real touch UI built for the lot — bigger hit areas, gesture-driven editing, tap-to-select that works on a phone screen. Drag a vehicle where it actually parked.
More"We used to draw parking maps in PowerPoint the night before scout. BaseMapper is what we use now — it's faster and the transpo coordinator actually trusts the dimensions."

"The vehicle templates are the right size and there are enough of them to cover a real base camp. That's harder to get right than it sounds."
