And the floor ordering is inverted!  At least CPI let you define the sequence 
correctly.

One of my hot buttons...

We've brought this up with Cisco Product Managers over the years, and they 
don't seem to get it.  Perhaps a critical mass on this group could get it 
raised in priority.  We've suggested Geographic Information Systems numerous 
times.  You would not necessarily need GPS reception inside the building.  Just 
geo-reference a few exterior corners of a floor plan, and any GIS system 
projects specific coordinates as you drop an AP.  I had some grad students do 
this with a percentage of our floorplans a decade ago and it all worked.  Then 
you should be able to export those and re-import into any floor plan that is 
geo-referenced.

Related, Cisco' mapping (DNAC and DNASpaces) is pretty two dimensional, and 
doesn't have the concept of a campus with many buildings and many floors to 
those buildings.
