Release Notes: September 2024. See what's new at Spacesium Scout 3D 📐

Managing the vast amounts of data collected from drones and 3D scanning in the field is crucial. At Spacesium, we have focused on streamlining the process with our latest release of Spacesium Scout 3D (1.8.5.21) 🌐. We’re excited to introduce several features aimed at simplifying data management and maximizing the value of your data.

Project Cloud Storage (My Files)

Securely store, organize, and share all your important project files with ease. This feature offers a centralized space where you can keep all your project data and documents, allowing you to access, manage, and share them seamlessly. Whether it’s PDF survey reports, invoices, designs, maps, CAD files, or drawings, you can store everything within a single platform that integrates directly with a 2D and 3D Viewer.

Gone are the days of juggling multiple software programs like standalone 3D viewers or cloud storage services like USB drives, OneDrive, and Dropbox. With Project Cloud Storage, you can view, edit, and manage all your data within a single, user-friendly interface that supports both 2D and 3D visualization. This streamlined solution enhances collaboration and ensures that everyone working on a project can access the same up-to-date information, all in one place, with no need for extra tools or storage services. Experience the convenience of having your files instantly accessible and fully integrated into your project workflow.

Online 360° Panorama Viewer

Enhance your 3D models and point clouds by integrating 360° panoramic imagery directly within the platform. This feature enables you to create immersive, interactive environments where you can bring your 360° photos to life alongside your 3D data. To use, simply place a point within your model, upload your 360° image, and the viewer will automatically generate an interactive panorama. This allows for seamless navigation and exploration of your 3D projects in a way that combines both visual and spatial data.

The Online 360° Panorama Viewer is equipped with intuitive controls, allowing you to zoom, rotate, and interact with the imagery to gain a comprehensive understanding of the project’s environment. Moreover, the integrated chat functionality allows you to collaborate and share feedback with your team in real-time, all within the same viewing window, eliminating the need for third-party tools or communication platforms.

No additional plugins are required, as the viewer operates entirely within your web browser. It is optimized for high-performance viewing, leveraging GPU acceleration to ensure smooth rendering and navigation even when handling large data sets. The responsive design ensures that you can use the viewer across various devices without compromising speed or quality.

Best of all, this powerful feature is available for free across all plans, making it accessible to any user looking to elevate their 3D model interaction with 360° panoramas.

Search Tool

A better way to search for a specific area or associated location on your map is by utilizing the integrated search tool in Scout 3D. This powerful feature allows users to easily enter various search parameters, including addresses, place names, points of interest, and streets. By simply inputting the desired location details, the search tool will quickly find and highlight the relevant area.

Once a search query is entered, the map will automatically zoom to the selected result, providing a seamless and intuitive navigation experience. This makes it easier for users to pinpoint exact locations, even in complex or large-scale projects. The search tool is designed to be user-friendly, accommodating both specific and general queries, ensuring that you can find the location you're looking for with minimal effort.

Whether you're searching for a particular location, a landmark, or a street within a project, this tool streamlines the process and enhances your overall workflow. The search tool is an essential feature for anyone working on detailed mapping or geospatial projects, offering flexible and for better UI experience.
