After adding GPS coordinates to your floor plan, you can upload 360° photos according to their GPS data to a georeferenced sheet on the Web Editor in a few steps.


How to manually upload 360° images onto a floorplan in the Web Editor according to their GPS coordinates

  1. Add GPS information (longitude and latitude) to your floor plan on your Web Editor - learn more.

  2. Open a folder on your PC which contains one or multiple georeferenced 360° photos.

    Please note that only 360° photos that contain GPS data can be automatically organized on the floor plans. These images can be captured with a 360 camera while connected to the camera's native application on a mobile device or by a drone for instance. Most 360° cameras do not collect the GPS coordinates by themselves.

  3. Drag and drop the 360° photos from your desktop into the sheet map (section showing your floorplan) HoloBuilder's Web Editor and the photos will automatically organize themselves on the floor plan.

    Please note that, as for now, this feature is only available for 360° photos and therefore won't work for 2D photos.

  5. Save your changes by clicking on the "Save" button on the top of the screen.
