A groundplan is the layout of a building as seen from above, showing the arrangement of rooms, walls, and spaces on a single floor.
By extension, groundplan means any basic scheme or outline for action: The committee developed a groundplan for restructuring the department.
Also spelled as two words: ground plan.
