making a map of my property and hiking trails

[nadolguna]

I'm attempting to map 27ish acres of mostly forest so I can keep track orlf trails and important locations. How do I crop the map to just show my property or at least my property as the main focus (right now my basemap is the world and I don't need to zoom out that far. Also best way to map my trails? The woods is just a block of trees on the basemap and I'd rather the trails be semi accurate location wise. How possible is it to set up a qr code to show said map if scanned? The property is an airbnb and I'd like guests to be able to view the map and various points of interest. I'm not super familiar with gis and Google is isn't helping like I'd hoped.

To focus in on just your location, you want to set a "viewpoint" on your map. Here's one example from one of the samples: https://developers.arcgis.com/qt/qml/sample-code/picture-marker-symbol/

It shows the "Map" having an "initialViewpoint: startingVP", and then the "startingVP" is a "ViewpointExtent" above.

There's also a "Change Viewpoint" sample that shows some other ways of setting your viewpoint: https://developers.arcgis.com/qt/qml/sample-code/change-viewpoint/

Setting up a QR code is pretty easy -- you can use any of the free QR code generators online, such as https://www.qr-code-generator.com/. All a QR code can do is direct the device to a given URL. So you'll need a URL that directs people to the map. If you're distributing your map as an app on a mobile device, you'd maybe want to use the URL that corresponds to your app's page in the app store.

To map out the trails, one way would be to hard-code points for a "Polyline" and add it to your map as a "GraphicsOverlay". Here is a sample that does that: https://developers.arcgis.com/qt/maps-2d/tutorials/add-a-point-line-and-polygon/#add-a-polyline-grap...

Alternatively, there might be an existing feature service that already has those trails mapped. If so, that could be loaded as a feature layer. But that will depend on whether or not your particular trails have been mapped by somebody.
