Zones

Zones provide a powerful way to organize, structure, and navigate large Twins. They allow users to define spatial areas inside a Twin and automatically group assets based on their location. This improves data organization, searchability, and overall Twin navigation.


What Are Zones

Zones are user-defined 3D areas that segment a Twin into meaningful regions. They can represent rooms, departments, operational areas, production lines, or any spatial grouping that matters to your workflow.

A Zone can include:

  • A custom geometry (box or polygon)

  • A name

  • Optional metadata

  • Automatically assigned assets based on the Zone’s boundaries

Zones appear in a dedicated view and can be managed from a dedicated panel.

Creating Zones

You can create and manage Zones from the left-side panel by switching to the Zones View. From here, press the “+” icon to create a new Zone.

During creation, choose between two geometry modes:

  • Box Zone
    Define a rectangular 3D box to enclose your area.

  • Polygon Zone
    Draw a custom polygon footprint for irregular or non-rectangular spaces.

Give the Zone a name and define its shape. Once you are satisfied, press Confirm to finalize your Zone.

Editing Zones

Zones remain fully editable after creation. Users can modify the shape, boundaries, or metadata at any time to keep the Twin organized as the environment evolves.

Automatic Asset Grouping

All assets located within a Zone’s defined boundaries are automatically listed under that Zone in the left-side panel. There is no manual assignment required.

This allows users to:

  • Quickly identify what assets belong to each spatial area

  • Maintain a clean Twin hierarchy

  • Structure assets in a way that matches real-world layout and operations
