Territory Map (Printed)

The Territory Map shows the graphical map of the selected territory. This map will display on the printed Territory Card.

  • Note: If you have added a Territory Boundary and will not physically print the Territory Card, there is no need to create or add a Territory Map.

Maps can be created either with NW Scheduler, Google Maps or any other software.

The map file size must be 300KB or less, as New World Scheduler does not support maps larger than 300KB.

If your map is an image (PNG or JPEG) and is larger than 300KB, New World Scheduler can automatically compress the image to under 300KB while you are adding it.

If your map is a PDF and is larger than 300KB, you must manually compress the file before adding. Please see Common Questions > How to compress a PDF

Common Questions and Problems

Server data storage and usage is very expensive. We have selected a file size limit that balances functionality with cost.

Additionally, as the map files are designed to be viewed on mobile devices, a larger file size is not necessary.

We currently provide mapping data from 3 different map providers:

  1. ThinkGeo
  2. OpenStreetMaps
  3. Bing Maps

You can change the map provider in Territory Settings.

The level of detail shown on the maps depends on the provider and the location. There is nothing we can do about this. We do not control map data.

Regardless of map provider or map detail, you can add Territory Address to all maps. Simply right-click any location to add an Address at that location. This will show a House, Apartment or Business icon at that location and be visible on the map.

Google Maps have by far the most detail, but is very, very expensive. We cannot add Google Maps.

No, this is not possible.

You can draw Territory Boundaries and add individual Territory Addresses.

Yes, please see Territory Boundary for instructions on how to make Territory Maps.

There are many ways to compress a PDF, depending on how you created the PDF and what software you have. We recommend trying the following:

  1. Remove any graphics or pictures from the PDF
  2. Re-save the PDF with a lower quality setting
  3. Visit https://smallpdf.com/compress-pdf and compress the PDF
  4. Do a google search for “How to compress PDF”

The map must be saved as PNG or JPG to see when printing. PDF map files will not display when printing.

This means the map file is still open on your computer.

You must please close the map file before adding, sending or removing.
