Upload project area shape file
To upload a shape file, create a zip containing the *.shp, *.shx, *.dbf (and *.prj if it is not in Lat/Lon). You may also upload a Google Earth file (*.kml, *.kmz) or a GeoJSON Feature Collection (*.json, *.geojson).
Note: Shape files have a size limit of 2MB total and 30K vertices
Helpful Tip: Please simplify your shape file prior to uploading, especially for detailed maps such as CAD drawings.

How do I create a multipart polygon feature to use in the IPaC mapper?
Multipart polygon features are composed of more than one physical part that only references one set of attributes. There are two main ways to create multipart polygon features for use in IPaC:
1) Using ArcGIS: To create a multipart feature in ArcGIS, you need to finish each part first, then finish the whole sketch once you have created the individual parts. If you have existing features that you want to combine to make a multipart feature, you can do this with either Merge or Union. Merge allows you to combine features within the same layer, while Union works with features in different layers.
2) Using Google Earth (GE): You can also create multipart polygons in Google Earth and save them as KMZ files, which can be uploaded to IPaC projects. This is a good alternative for users who dont have access to ArcGIS. Simply create your polygons in Google Earth, save as a KMZ file, and upload it to your IPaC project.
