Create a mobile collection task for small-scale spaces
This article provides a detailed explanation of the complete operation process for creating a mapping task for small-scale spaces using mobile collection, including task creation, data preparation, data upload, and mapping process instructions, helping users quickly complete mapping requirements for small-scale scenarios.
Create a small-scale mobile collection task
Click the
Mobile Collection Taskbutton in the upper-right corner.
In the pop-up dialog, enter the task name, select the mapping version and data format (the latest version is recommended), set the collection method to

Data acquisition and export
Use a mobile device to collect small-scale spatial data. For device configuration and key collection points, please refer to:
Upload data
Click the
Upload databutton.

In the pop-up upload data window, complete the following configurations:
- Collected data: Select and upload files with the
.empsuffix format. - EIF data: Special test data used for remote verification of Mega effects and simulating positioning. This is optional and can be uploaded later.
- Upload region: Select the nearest upload region based on the operator's location.
- Collected data: Select and upload files with the
After completing the settings, click the
Confirm uploadbutton.

Start mapping
After the uploaded data is approved, it will automatically enter the mapping process, and the status will display as queued or generating. The duration of mapping varies depending on the data size, so please be patient.

Accessibility
The following features can help you better manage and operate mapping tasks, improving work efficiency:
View uploaded files
Used to check if the uploaded mapping files are complete, avoiding mapping failure due to missing files.
Click the
View uploaded filesbutton to see the list of all uploaded files in the pop-up window and confirm whether the files are fully uploaded.
Click on a specific
.emp fileto preview the video content online, ensuring the collected data meets quality requirements.
Upload EIF
EIF data is specialized test data in Mega for remote debugging and simulation positioning, used for remote verification of Mega effects and supporting simulation positioning during remote development. It needs to be collected using specified tools. For detailed collection methods, please refer to the EIF Data Collection Guide.
Steps to upload EIF:
- Click the
Upload EIFbutton.
- Select the EIF data directory folder and click the
Confirm Uploadbutton.
View uploaded data:
After uploading, you can click the View Uploaded Files button to check the uploaded EIF files in the pop-up window. The files support Download and Delete operations.

Stop mapping
If incorrect data is uploaded or the trajectory map data does not match the actual situation before the mapping task is completed, click the Stop mapping button, then click Confirm in the secondary confirmation pop-up to stop the mapping.

Delete task
If the current mapping task fails or is no longer needed, you can click the Delete task button to delete the task. Click Delete in the secondary confirmation pop-up to complete the deletion.

Confirm the mapping result
When the task enters the mapping process, you can determine whether the mapping task is completed by checking the task status. When the status shows task completed or generation failed, it means the mapping task has ended.

Mapping successful
When the task status shows Task completed, it means the mapping is successful and the mapping results have been generated. At this point, you can further check the mapping results to confirm whether they meet the expected requirements.

Mapping failed
When the task status shows Generation failed, it means the mapping failed. It is recommended to troubleshoot the issue in the following ways:
- Check the mapping report: View the mapping report and find solutions based on the report information.
- Refer to troubleshooting: Consult the Mapping failure troubleshooting guide for solutions to common issues.
- Contact technical support: If the above methods do not resolve the problem, contact EasyAR staff and provide the
Task IDfor quick issue identification.
