Short answer

How can I use my AI to manage mapping projects?

Your AI uses Mapflow tools to create new projects, list existing ones, and monitor the status of active processing tasks. You get a centralized way to track every geospatial job through a simple chat interface.

Where every task lands.

Project and task organization

Your AI sorts your geospatial work into these specific outcomes.

NEW

Project creation

The AI sets up new mapping environments based on your descriptions. You get a clean workspace for every new area of interest.

LIST

Inventory management

Your agent pulls a full list of your current projects and active processing jobs. You can see exactly what is running without logging into a dashboard.

STATUS

Real-time tracking

The AI checks the progress of specific processing tasks. You'll know exactly when a map is ready for review.

HUMAN

Manual review

The AI identifies completed tasks that need your eyes. You decide when a project is finished or needs more work.

The workflow

What your AI does when a project starts.

The AI moves from setup to monitoring using direct tool calls.

  1. Initialize the workspace

    Your agent sets up the necessary parameters for a new geospatial area.

    create_project
  2. Audit existing work

    The AI scans your account to see what projects you already have active.

    list_projects
  3. Monitor active jobs

    Your agent looks through all current processing tasks to find what is running.

    list_processings
  4. Verify completion

    The AI checks the specific state of a single processing job to see if it succeeded.

    get_processing_status

FAQ

How the mapping management works

  • 01

    Can my AI delete a project?

    No. The AI can only create, list, and check status. You must handle deletions manually in Mapflow.

  • 02

    Can the AI change my project settings?

    No. The AI is limited to creating new projects and checking the status of existing ones.

  • 03

    Does the AI see my raw map data?

    No. The AI only interacts with project metadata and processing status information.

  • 04

    How do I know if a map is finished?

    You can ask your AI to check the status of a specific processing job, and it will tell you if it is complete.

  • 05

    Can I run multiple projects at once?

    Yes. You can use the AI to list all active processing jobs to manage multiple tasks simultaneously.
