With smappen, you can draw isochrones and isodistances very easily and free of charge. In some cases, it may be useful to set out your areas manually, to adjust overlapping areas or to adapt to specific constraints that you need to take into account.

How to Create a Manual Area #

1. Click “Create a new area.”
   
2. Set a starting point by entering an address, city, or GPS coordinates, or by right-clicking on the map and selecting “Starting address.”
   
3. Choose the area type “Manual” and click “Draw.”
   
4. Outline your area directly on the map by clicking to add points.
   
5. If you make a mistake, use “Undo” to remove the last point.
   
6. To finish, close the shape by clicking the first point again or select “Finish.”
