Release v30.95–31.08
Change crane type, estimate assembly area capacity and size custom objects to scale
EasySiteSI update, 6 November 2026 (v30.95–31.08)
EasySiteSI is a browser-based site logistics planner for builders, councils and event organisers. This update lets you change a placed crane to a different model, estimate how many people fit in an assembly area, keep a live inventory of site objects, and import your own objects at true size, all on a satellite map to scale.

Cranes that match the plant you plan to use
When the plant on site changes, you can swap the placed crane to another model without redrawing the overlays. Right-click the crane, choose Change crane type…, and pick from the library grouped by mobile, crawler, tower flat-top or luffing. The original label follows the model you pick unless you have typed your own label.
Crawler and Franna (pick-and-carry) cranes now have an on-map rotate handle so you can match the set-up on the day. Tower and luffing icons use the same solid yellow style as the mobile and Franna icons.

Estimate how many people fit in an assembly area
Draw a closed area, name it something like Assembly Point, and turn on Capacity (estimate). EasySiteSI shows an estimated headcount from the drawn area and a density you choose. Use it for muster points, event holding areas and similar planning conversations.
This is an estimate. Always check it against the approved capacity for the venue or site and your emergency plan. The app’s number is not an approved capacity.

A live inventory that scrolls and folds
SITE OBJECTS keeps a live tally of what you have placed, including fence and route lengths. The section folds and scrolls like the legend. A per-row eye icon leaves items out of the PDF Inventory schedule while keeping the on-screen tally — useful when a sheet should stay uncluttered for a review meeting.
Custom and imported objects at true size
Bring in your own objects — a custom shed, plant or other footprint — and size them like library objects. Length and width start from 0.1 m, with rotation, resize handles and Inventory counting. Custom image objects can drop their pad fill so the image fills the L × W footprint on the map and in the PDF.
Labels, measure and a tidier legend
Labels rotate with their object by default (with a panel choice to keep a label level). Turn a label into a callout from the panel; length and area still appear when those options are ticked. Esc exits a measurement, and double-click finishes it like the other line tools. Container and site shed borders draw at 1 px, and legend icons line up flush left.
FAQ
How do I estimate how many people fit in an assembly area?
Draw a closed area on the map, give it a name such as Assembly Point, and turn on Capacity (estimate). EasySiteSI multiplies the drawn area by a chosen density preset to show an estimated headcount. It is an estimate only — always check it against the approved capacity for the venue or site, the exits and your emergency plan.
Can I change a crane to a different model after placing it?
Yes. Right-click any placed crane and choose Change crane type… to open the crane model library, grouped by type. Picking a model updates the crane type and icon. Boom, lift and slew overlays stay on the map while you choose.
Can I add my own objects (e.g. a custom shed or plant) to a site plan at true size?
Yes. Custom and imported image objects use real length and width from 0.1 m, with rotation, resize handles and Inventory counting, so they behave like library objects on the map and in the PDF.
Can I leave some objects out of the PDF inventory schedule?
Yes. SITE OBJECTS keeps a live inventory tally. A per-row eye icon leaves items out of the PDF Inventory schedule while keeping the on-screen tally.
Does EasySiteSI replace approvals or a lift study?
No. EasySiteSI is a planning and communication tool for site logistics layouts. It is not a 3D/BIM tool, not a crane lift-study calculator, not a CAD replacement and not a substitute for approvals.
