Roles and permissions

What you can do in STR Maps depends on your account type and your role within your organization. If you don't see a button that appears in this manual, it's most likely that your role doesn't have that permission.

What is my role?

In Account › Organizations you'll see your role next to your name: Owner, Org Admin or Standard User.

Account types

Type For whom How it works
Enterprise SaaS Companies that manage their own inspections The organization creates projects, uploads images and orthophotos, and uses the AI tools
Enterprise (managed service) Companies for whom STR provides the full service STR uploads the images, processes them and generates the results; the organization reviews and corrects them and manages its users
Individual account Users without an organization Basic viewing and editing of assigned projects
