Product Updates

Maintain Permissions When Copying or Unlinking Layers

When copying or unlinking a layer, you can now choose to keep the permissions. Making it easier for you to retain the same access rights across any layer that you duplicate or unlink.

Simultaneously Add Project Attributes to Multiple Layers

You can now add predefined project attributes to multiple layers at the same time. This will save you from having to add multiple attributes individually to each layer.

Adding Comments to Plans

Our new comments feature enables users to collaborate effectively on their plans:

• Users can create and view comments on plans, including while on mobile
• It’s now easier to identify who has commented and to see all comments on a plan

Stay tuned for additional enhancements to this feature in the near future!

Single Sign On

Now, enterprise customers have the capability to configure Iventis to use their organisation’s identity provider for authentication. For example, users can  login to Iventis using their company’s Microsoft Office account instead of needing a separate username and password.

Single sign on functionality helps larger organisations manage access and ensures compliance with security policies.

Recommended Layer Templates

Users will now be  presented with a recommended selection of layer templates tailored on to their event type. 

Image Attributes Feature for Uploading Photos and Images to Map Objects

Users can now upload photos and images to map objects, using our new Image Attributes feature.

Hyperlinks to Map Objects

Users can now easily attach web links to map objects.

For example, it is now possible to attach a link to a document, which, upon clicking, will open in a new browser tab.

Import KML and KMZ files onto Plans

Users now have the ability to import KML and KMZ file formats into their plans.

This widely used format, commonly associated with Google Maps products, allows data from Google Earth to be imported into Iventis.

Route Generator

The new Route Generator tool auto-generates routes, helping users to reduce time and improve the accuracy of routes such as pedestrian and vehicle routes. 

• Automatic route generation: Set origin and destination points by searching or clicking on the map. The tool calculates the quickest routes for cars, bicycles, or pedestrians over any distance
• Automatic waypoint generation: Waypoints are automatically created and saved to your Layers allowing you to create routes by defining key points of reference that can be used for location and navigation
• Precision control: For greater control and more complex routes, add intermediate points or drag the route to tailor it exactly how you want it 
• Edit anytime: Even after saving, come back anytime to make further adjustments  

Add Custom Remarks to PDFs

Users can add customised remarks to a PDF export for improved insights.  
 
This new feature allows users to add version information or other pertinent notes to PDF exports, which are displayed within the legend. 

Precision Planning with What3words Integration

What3words is now integrated into the Iventis Planner as an attribute type.

With What3words, users can quickly pinpoint any 3 x 3 square in the world using a with a simple three-word phase. For instance, the central spot in Wembley stadium is represented by ‘years,spike.raced’. The integration provides users with the ability to:

• Explain exactly where something is or should be, easier than relaying complex coordinates
• Plan exact location information alongside other crucial data from directly within an Attribute table
• Download What3Words data for multiple points

GPX File Import Capability

Iventis now supports the import of GPX files , a widely used format in GPS software. Satnavs and running/cycling apps like Strava offer the capability to export GPX data which traces a route.

This latest feature enables users to physically walk, drive or cycle a route, such as a marathon route, and import it directly into Iventis to help plan events.
