====Maps and Environments====

In order to show 2D maps (or 3D environments in [[ardibasics:ardi-ve|ARDI-VE]]), you'll need to turn one of your assets into an Environment.

You do this from the [[detail_placement|Placement & 3D]] tab. Click on **Make This A 3D Environment** button.

You'll need to choose between...

  * [[Starting with a Blank Environment]]
  * [[Upload Floorplans|Uploading your Floorplans]], or
  * Uploading 3D Models from [[ARDI Environment Creator]]

Both the first two options work well for users who aren't planning on running ARDI-VE.
