## Overview

A Property is a digital representation of a real-world location. It contains the floors, hotspots, and photos for that location.

## Key concepts

* **Top-level container.** Each floor, hotspot, and photo belongs to one property.
* **Data services required.** Your organization needs a Data services subscription to create a property. Data services covers the bandwidth and storage needed to upload and view photos.
* **Transferable.** A property can be transferred to another organization.
* **Property roles.** Access inside a property can be controlled by Property roles in addition to Global roles. See [Property roles](/access/property-roles).
