2026 FACILITY MAP WORKSPACE
Fire escape planning, drawn from the building you actually manage.
OSHAMap turns a floor plan or hand sketch into an editable, review-ready safety map draft. Routes stay grounded in your layout; your team stays in control of the review.
AI-assisted draft. Verify site conditions and obtain qualified review before posting.

02 / Upload-to-draft proof
A clean plan becomes a review surfaceโnot a black box.
The example shows the actual workflow: preserve the uploaded walls and room labels, then layer route arrows, exits, equipment symbols, and a posting-position marker for review.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this evacuation map generator really free?
Yes โ you can generate your first OSHA-aligned evacuation map draft completely free. Just upload a floor plan and our AI drafts a professional map in about 30 seconds. No credit card required.
Are the generated maps aligned with OSHA?
Our AI drafts maps that follow OSHA 29 CFR 1910.36โ37 and NFPA 101 Life Safety Code standards. Every map includes clearly marked exits, fire extinguisher locations, assembly points, and directional evacuation arrows. Supervisor review is required before posting to your facility.
What file formats can I upload?
We accept JPG, PNG, and PDF floor plans. For best results, use a clear, high-resolution image of your floor plan with visible walls, doors, and rooms.
How long does map generation take?
Most maps are generated in 20โ40 seconds. Complex multi-floor plans may take slightly longer. You see the preview instantly โ create a free account (no credit card) to download the file.
Can I edit the map after generation?
Yes โ every generated map opens in a free drag-and-drop editor where you can move, resize, and recolor exit signs, routes, and equipment icons. Enterprise features like multi-floor support and branded maps are available on paid plans.
Is my floor plan data secure?
Yes. All uploads are encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and processed in secure cloud environments. We do not share your floor plans with third parties.

Four deliberate steps, not a compliance shortcut
Bring the source plan
Upload a floor plan, PDF, or clear hand sketch.
Build the overlay
Generate an editable route and safety-symbol draft.
Walk the facility
Verify exits, equipment, routes, and each posting location.
Approve the final
Complete qualified review before the map is posted.
06 / Review bench
Use the draft to make the site conversation concrete.
- Walk each primary and alternate route under normal operating conditions.
- Confirm current exits, equipment, restricted areas, and exterior assembly guidance.
- Match each posted copy to its physical location and viewing direction.
- Record qualified approval and revisit the map after layout changes.
Continue with local guidance
Connect the map draft to the facility type and location instead of relying on a generic national checklist.
07 / Living-plan discipline
A useful evacuation draft has a change log behind it.
Trigger a map review from a real change
Tenant improvements, rack moves, new equipment, shifted rooms, access-control changes, and construction phasing can all make an old route drawing misleading. Keep a revision owner and date beside the source plan.
Separate the drawing from the decision
Use the map to surface questions about travel, exits, equipment, and posting position. The facility team and qualified reviewers decide what the approved procedure and final posted version should say.
Publish for the viewer, not the archive
A PDF stored in a folder does not orient someone in a corridor. Create viewer-specific copies, check viewing direction, and keep the version label readable where the map will be used.
08 / Route review questions
Ask the questions a floor plan cannot answer by itself.
Use this short field prompt during a facilities walk. For specialized facilities, start with the relevant industry guidance, then connect the work to your state, city, and existing posting guidance.
- Does the draft still match the route during the busiest normal operating condition?
- What changes between daytime, after-hours, weekend, and contractor access?
- Which building owner, facilities lead, or safety contact approves a revised floor or suite?
- Does the outdoor assembly direction connect to the siteโs current emergency procedures?
Separate household planning branch
Planning for a home rather than a managed facility?
Use the household guides for family decisions and practice. They are separate from workplace OSHA obligations and do not replace building-specific instructions.
09 / Fire escape plan maker FAQ
Questions before you generate
What is a fire escape plan maker?
It is a workspace for turning a facility floor plan, PDF, or hand sketch into an editable evacuation-map draft with routes, exits, safety symbols, and posting information.
Can I start from a hand sketch?
Yes. Upload a clear photo of the sketch, then compare the generated draft with the physical site before final review.
Is an AI-generated fire escape plan ready to post?
No. It is an OSHA-aligned starting point. Verify routes, equipment, building conditions, local requirements, and obtain qualified review before posting.
