A method in a computing device for generating a composite document includes receiving drawing data from a user interface, where the drawing data includes a plurality of two-dimensional shapes, and generating a first data structure that includes the received drawing data. The method further includes receiving a reference to a geographic location from the user interface and, in response to receiving the reference to the geographic location, retrieving photograph data corresponding to the received reference, where the photograph data includes at least one of satellite image data and aerial image data for the geographic location. The method also includes generating a second data structure that includes the photograph data and the reference to the geographic location. According to the method, the composite document is then generated, and the first data structure is included in the composite document as a first composite document entity, and the second data structure is included in the composite document as the second composite document entity.
