How to draw property lines on a photo
Open Pixly's free Property Line & Boundary Tool in your browser, add an aerial or drone photo, and click each corner of the lot — the boundary is drawn as you click. Switch on a label for the lot size or price under Label, then click Download PNG. Free, no account — drawing and the PNG download happen in your browser.

The four steps
- 01
Add an aerial photo
Go to pixly.app/tools/property-lines and drop the photo on the page, or click Choose photo. A drone shot or any photo from above works best.
- 02
Click the corners of the lot
Click each corner in turn; the boundary closes by itself after the third. Drag a corner to fine-tune it.
- 03
Add a label (optional)
Under Label, switch the label on and type the Caption and Value — the lot size or the price. Under Style you can change the colour, width and glow of the line.
- 04
Download the photo
Under Export, click Download PNG for a full-size PNG. Export animated video makes a clip where the line draws itself; that needs a free account.

Tips for a clean boundary
- Use a photo taken from above, with the whole lot in the frame.
- Follow fences, hedges or the survey map for the corners.
- Add a Line for an access road or a Marker for a feature — each is its own layer.
- Have drone video instead? The drone tool keeps the lines on the lot as the camera moves.
What to avoid
- Presenting the lines as a legal survey — they are drawn by you and are illustrative.
- Tracing over trees or shadows that hide the real corner.
- Ground-level photos: a boundary reads best from above.
