Branded Maps, Visitor Chat, Directions & One Universal QR Code
QR Maps helps organizations make physical places easier to explore and navigate. It supports cities, counties, public agencies, colleges, K-12 schools, hospitals, corporate campuses, parks, venues, airports, ports, and other organizations that manage locations or serve on-site visitors. The cloud platform provides a branded interactive map opened by web link or QR code. One reusable QR code works across multiple locations while staff update the connected map centrally, reducing separate codes, static pages, and replacement signage.
Visitors can search destinations, browse categories, view hours and other important details, and request walking or driving directions from their current location. They can then continue navigation in their preferred mapping application. Organizations may also offer an AI visitor assistant within the map, through a dedicated link, or embedded on an existing website. Branding, welcome messages, and suggested questions are managed from one dashboard.
Customers connect their own ArcGIS API key for mapping, geocoding, search, and routing. Organizations enabling the visitor assistant also connect their own OpenAI API key, retaining control of provider accounts, usage, and billing. Authorized staff manage locations, categories, branding, team access, assistant settings, and recent activity centrally. Exportable analytics help organizations identify information gaps and understand what visitors are trying to find.
For public-sector organizations, QR Maps can improve access to parks, civic buildings, services, events, and community resources while keeping information consistent across departments. It provides a practical alternative to fragmented location pages and custom-built mapping applications. Security documentation, a Data Processing Addendum, and subprocessor information are available to support procurement and technology review.
Private organizations receive the same core benefits. Hospitals can guide patients and visitors to entrances, departments, parking, and amenities. Universities, corporate campuses, and venues can make buildings and services easier to navigate. QR Maps also provides configuration guidance, onboarding, training, platform updates, and technical support, giving organizations a flexible way to connect people with places without requiring visitors to install an app.
