What CEMETERRA does
Everything a cemetery actually needs
Four capabilities that existing software either ignores entirely or hides behind enterprise pricing.
Interactive Plot Map
Upload any image or PDF of your cemetery layout, draw plot boundaries with a click, and go live the same afternoon. No $1,500-per-acre digitization fee.
Grounds Crew Mobile App
Staff open a browser on their phone — no app download. They see their tasks on a map, tap to get details, mark complete with a photo. Works offline in poor signal.
QR Memorial Pages
Each plot gets a unique URL. Families scan the QR code at the headstone and land on a beautiful mobile memorial page — no app, no login, no friction.
Cremation Management
Columbarium niche mapping, cremation garden GPS stakes, urn vault tracking, and scattered remains records — built for how burial actually works in 2026.
Plot management
Your cemetery map — digital in an afternoon
Take a photo or scan of your paper cemetery map. Upload it. Use our drawing tool to click-define plot boundaries on top. Every plot becomes a clickable record — name, dates, section, row, status.
- Color-coded status: available, occupied, reserved, on-hold
- Public grave search — families find loved ones by name
- Deed and certificate PDF generation from templates
- CSV import of existing Excel/spreadsheet records
- GPS coordinates for cremation markers and natural burial
Grounds crew app
The field app your crew will actually use
Grounds workers open a browser on their phone. No app to install, no training needed. They see assigned tasks as pins on the cemetery map, tap a pin to get full details and mark it complete — with an optional photo.
- Task map view optimized for 375px screens
- Tasks cached locally — works in poor connectivity
- Photo capture on task completion
- Headstone condition logging (crack, lean, damaged)
- Supervisor sees real-time completion in the admin dashboard
- Route optimized daily task list
Family memorial pages
Scan the headstone. Land on a memorial.
CEMETERRA generates a unique QR code for every plot. Families scan it at the grave and land on a full mobile memorial page — no app download, no account, no friction. It works exactly like a website link.
- Instant page: name, dates, photo, biography
- Family can add tributes via email-verified one-time link
- Optional notification when maintenance is done on the plot
- Indexed by search engines and genealogy sites
- QR code printable for headstone plaque or weather-proof sticker

Municipal cemetery departments
