A floor plan (location map) is the drawing of a room. A moisture map sits on top of a floor plan and holds the points and readings you log, so get the plan right first.

​
Start a moisture map

  1. In the mobile app, open the job and tap Moisture, then tap +.
  2. On Select Location Map, pick the floor plan for the room, or create one (see Creating a floor plan with a LiDAR scan and Uploading or hand-drawing a floor plan). Tap Continue.
  3. On Create Moisture Map, check the location, enter a Moisture map name, and tap Continue. A room can have more than one map on the same plan.
The map opens with three tabs: Material for moisture points and readings (below), Atmospheric for temperature, humidity, and GPP (see Atmospheric readings and drying progress), and Annotations. To move a map to another room or job, or copy its points to another job, see Moving or duplicating a moisture map.

Add points and readings

A floor plan has two views, and they do different jobs: the 2D view is where you work — pinch to zoom in tight, tap anywhere on the floor, wall, or ceiling to drop a moisture point, and tap a wall to see its measurements. The 3D view is a rotate-and-inspect model of the scanned room for getting your bearings — it’s a viewer, not an editing surface. For each point, log:
  • A moisture reading (%) and the material tested — type it in and TrueRestore suggests materials your company has used before (Drywall, Wood, Concrete, Carpet, and so on build up automatically as you and your team log readings, rather than being a fixed list)
  • An optional caption and photo
  • An unaffected flag, if the material tests dry from the start — these are treated as a baseline reading, not drying progress
Set a dry goal for each point — once a new (non-baseline) reading comes in at or below goal, TrueRestore automatically flags the point Dry. It doesn’t disappear once dry: it stays right on the map with its full reading history, so you can always see how it got there, and you can reopen and adjust the dry goal at any time if conditions change. Points and readings show their own sync status, so you always know whether a reading has made it to the server yet. Most of this work happens on a phone in the room, but the web app opens the same map: from the job’s Maps tab you can drop points on the 2D plan and add or edit material readings from the office — useful for correcting a reading a tech logged in a hurry.
