Projects and Quick Saves - Organize Your Locations

Save legal land descriptions to Quick Saves or organize them into Projects with categories. Export your saved locations and use them with Route Planner.

Township Canada's Projects feature provides a powerful way to save and organize locations for future reference. Whether you're tracking properties, planning site visits, or managing multiple job sites, Projects keeps your locations organized and accessible.

Quick Saves vs Projects

Township Canada offers two ways to save locations:

Quick Saves

Quick Saves provides a simple way to bookmark locations from search results. Available to all users, Quick Saves works like a favorites list for locations you want to access later.

  • Starter plan: Up to 20 quick saves
  • Pro plan: Up to 100 quick saves
  • Business plan: Unlimited quick saves

Projects

All users can create Projects to organize locations by job site, client, or any other grouping. Each project can contain locations with categories for further organization.

  • Starter plan: 1 project
  • Pro plan: 5 projects
  • Business plan: Unlimited projects

Saving a location

Save locations from search results or by clicking on the map.

Search for a location

Use the search box to find a legal land description, coordinates, or address. The result appears in the left panel with action buttons.

Click the Save button

Click the Save dropdown button on the search result card. Select either "Quick Saves" or a specific project to add the location.

Add optional details

After saving, you can add notes and assign categories to help organize your locations.

Accessing your saved locations

Open Projects from the main navigation menu. The Projects panel displays your Quick Saves and any custom projects you've created.

  • Click on Quick Saves to view all bookmarked locations
  • Click on a Project to view its locations
  • Use the search box to filter across all projects

Managing projects

Creating a project

Business users can create new projects by clicking the + New button in the Projects panel. Enter a name for your project and click Create.

Project display modes

Each project can display locations as either:

  • Points: Show locations as individual markers on the map
  • Polygons: Display the full boundary of each legal land description

Toggle between modes using the display mode selector in the project header.

Adding categories

Organize locations within a project using categories. Click on a location to edit its details and assign a category. Categories help you filter and group related locations.

Removing saved locations

To remove a location from Quick Saves or a project:

  1. Open the project containing the location
  2. Click the trash icon on the location card
  3. Confirm the deletion

Removing a location from Projects does not delete the original legal land description data—it only removes the bookmark.

Exporting saved locations

Export your saved locations in multiple formats for backup, sharing, or use in other applications:

  • PDF: Formatted report with location details
  • CSV: For spreadsheet applications like Excel
  • KML: For Google Earth
  • Shapefile: For GIS software like ArcGIS and QGIS
  • GeoJSON: For web mapping applications
  • DXF: For CAD applications
Export formats vary by subscription plan. Starter users cannot export. Pro users can export to PDF. Business users can export to all formats.

See the Download Results guide for more details on export formats.

  1. Open your project
  2. Select the locations you want to visit
  3. Click Route to open Route Planner
  4. Optimize the route for the most efficient travel path
