Tags

Tags are coloured labels you attach to properties to organise your work: "assessed", "owner contacted", "candidate for purchase", "should be rejected". A property can have many tags; one tag can cover hundreds of properties. Tags work across projects and are shared with your team.

Tags or bookmarks​

A tag marks a property. A bookmark saves a view of the map: where the map sits and where the camera points. A bookmark does not know which properties are in the view, and a tag does not know where the map was.

The bookmarks are described under the tools along the right edge.

Open the panel​

Click Tags in the left menu. The panel shows your tags as a list, with the number of objects in each.

What the panel shows​

Tags panel with tag count, search, filter, new tag and one row per tag

  • One row per tag with colour, name and how many properties, buildings and companies have it. Click the row to open the tag.
  • Search and filter at the top narrow the list. Both also work when you have many tags.
  • Plus creates a new tag or a group. Groups collect tags that belong together, for example all the tags in one project, and can be turned off and on together on the map.
  • The menu with three dots filters on all the tags at once.
  • Hover over a row to turn the tag off or on on the map, zoom to it, or edit and delete it.

A single tag​

Click a tag to see everything that has it: properties, buildings and companies, each with a thumbnail, matrikkel number and address. Search and filter work inside the tag too. Plus adds more objects, and the menu with three dots removes objects from the tag. The arrow at the top goes back to the list.

Showing the tags on the map​

Tagged properties appear as coloured points on the map. The switch on the row turns the display off or on per tag, so you can hide the points while you work on something else, and the crosshair icon zooms the map to the properties that have the tag.

Click a point on the map, or a property inside a tag, to open the property panel for that property. There you see the tags on the property along with matrikkel, area and other data.

Filtering tags​

Click the funnel icon at the top to open the filter. Select one or more tags to show only the properties that have them.

Filter panel with tags to choose from

All the tags in one view​

The menu with three dots at the top of the list has Filter all tags. It opens everything you have tagged in one view, across the tags, where you filter on tag, type and time.

How to tag a property​

  1. Open the property by clicking it on the map, or through search.
  2. Click Add tag at the top of the property panel.
  3. Select an existing tag from the list, or type a new tag name and click Create new tag.

Property panel with the Add tag button and the tags the property already has

A property can have many tags. Use that to cross-categorise: the same property can be marked with "Oslo portfolio", "Q2 assessment" and "Priority" at the same time.

Video: from a new tag to the Tags panel​

The video creates the tag "Til vurdering" (for assessment) on Tordenskiolds gate 2 and finds it again in the Tags panel: the crosshair icon at the top zooms out to all tagged properties, the search narrows the list to one, and the crosshair icon on the card zooms back to the property.

  1. Search for the property and open the property panel.
  2. Click Add tag. The list shows the tags the workspace already has. Type "Til vurdering" and click Create new tag. The tag is created and attached to the property in the same step.
  3. Click Tags in the left menu. The panel lists all tagged properties in the workspace.
  4. The crosshair icon at the top of the panel zooms out to all tagged properties. Type the tag name in the search field, and only this property remains, and the crosshair icon on the card zooms back to it.

Duration: 55 seconds.

Adding many objects at once​

If you have a list of matrikkel numbers, gårdsnummer and bruksnummer, or organisation numbers, you paste it in instead of tagging one object at a time.

  1. Open the tag in the Tags panel and click the plus icon at the top, then Add objects.
  2. Under Paste, paste in the identifiers, separated by commas or line breaks, for example 301-113-54-0-0, 209/129 or 915 933 149.
  3. Click Run matching. The objects that were found are placed in the preview, and anything that was not found stays in the field so you can correct it and run again.
  4. Click Done to save.

One run takes up to 2,000 identifiers. If you paste in more, the rest stays in the field, and you click Run matching again until the field is empty. There is no limit to how many objects a tag can have.

Colours and filtering​

The tag markers are colour coded. Use the colour to signal status without reading the tag name, one colour per phase or per team. The filter button combines filters on tag name, municipality and date to bring up the properties you need.

Typical use cases​

Due diligence pipeline. Create four tags: "For assessment", "In DD", "Rejected", "Purchase". Tag properties at the right stage as the work moves along. Click a tag in the panel to see the whole batch at that stage without opening a project.

Personal to-do list across projects. Use tags such as "Follow up", "Ask agent" or "Check zoning" as a personal to-do list. Other team members in the workspace can see them, so use names that make sense without context.

Portfolio overview. Tag the development sites in an area with the same tag, filter on it and click the crosshair icon at the top of the panel. The map zooms to all the properties in the selection.

Cross-categorisation. A property can be marked with "Oslo portfolio" and "Q2 assessment" and "Priority" at the same time. Filter on one of them to see the relevant selection.

Tips​

  • The search field filters the list as you type. Type the first letters of a tag name to narrow down quickly.
  • The eye icon next to "Your tags" hides the tag points on the map without removing anything. Turn them back on when you need them.
  • Tags are visible to everyone with access to the workspace. Use a naming convention that colleagues can understand.
  • Only delete tags you are sure are not in use. A deleted tag is removed from every property that has it, and there is no undo.
  • Use colours systematically if your tag list starts to grow: green = positive markers, red = negative, grey = neutral.
