    BaseMapper
    The BaseMapper map editor with a base camp laid out: trailers, trucks and tents on the lot.

    44 pieces of production gear, all at one scale.

    The same shapes the editor places. A star wagon really is five SUVs long.

    Template library

    A library of to-scale production vehicles.

    Honeywagons, star wagons, condors and a Russian Arm, drawn at their real footprint, so the trailer that fits on the plan fits on the lot.

    On set, in your pocket

    The same map tools, on location.

    Walk the lot, tap the trailer, drag it to where it actually parked.

    "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."

    Location Manager

    "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."
