Fork of Fork of Unit Floor Plan 1st draft
This interactive archaeological floor plan drawing tool provides a grid-based canvas for documenting excavation units, complete with corner balks and grid line labels. Users can draw walls, place objects, add text annotations, measure distances between points, and erase or clear elements, with options for customizing colors, wall thickness, object size, and font size. Built with D3.js v7, the visualization uses SVG for rendering the grid and drawing elements, and enables saving and loading plans via browser local storage and exporting as SVG or PNG files.
