View, measure and share your panoramic imagery in the browser, without an installation or a licence per user, with GDPR blurring and a time series per location.
Mobile mapping companies and other capture providers often deliver panoramic imagery on drives, download links or a viewer with a licence per user. With the GEORIZON panorama viewer you deliver street-level imagery in an environment where your client can look around and measure straight away. You load the recordings with a ready-made ingest template per camera type, the original files are always kept, and the coordinate system follows what the client requires, whichever CRS that is. That way you deliver professionally without building or maintaining a viewer yourself.
A panorama in GEORIZON is not a flat image but a capture station: a position along the driven line whose location and orientation are known. You step from station to station along the route, look around the full spherical image and click through to the next point. Because every station is linked to the matching point cloud, the third dimension remains available: you measure a width, a height or a distance to the carriageway directly in the image instead of estimating it. The viewer shows the map with the route travelled alongside the image, so you always know where you are standing and which way you are looking.
Anyone managing assets wants to know not only how something looks now, but what has changed. In GEORIZON, captures of the same location from different years sit side by side in the same frame, so a single click takes you back in time and makes change along a road or railway visible. The same applies to image types: ground level panoramas, oblique aerial capture and orthophotos live in the same environment, so you choose from one interface which perspective best answers the question. Sharing happens through a direct link to an exact viewpoint, which makes an email with a screenshot unnecessary.
Anyone who manages street-level imagery, 360 degree photos or panoramic imagery does not want to depend on the viewer of the party that captured it. An independent panorama viewer brings recordings from different providers, cameras and years into one environment, under your control. You can change provider without losing your image archive or way of working, and invite chain partners without extra licences. Choosing a provider becomes a choice on quality and price, not on the viewer. Considering an Orbit 3DM alternative? Read what depth maps and working without conversion bring you.
Imagery of the public realm almost always contains people and vehicles. GEORIZON blurs faces and number plates automatically before the imagery becomes available, so you work within the GDPR without manual effort on every project. Access is arranged per user or through single sign-on, and an on-premises deployment is possible where the data may not leave your own environment. To use the imagery outside the viewer, connect to the open API or download a selection. Organisations including ProRail (SpoorInBeeld), the municipality of Nijmegen and Kempkes Landmeten work with their imagery this way.
What is a panorama viewer? A panorama viewer shows 360 degree street-level imagery in the browser, so you can click along a route, look around and measure without installing software.
Can I view imagery from different providers and cameras in one viewer? Yes. Imagery from any make of mobile mapping system can be loaded into the same viewer, with a ready-made ingest template per camera type. The original files are always kept.
Is this an independent alternative to the street-level viewer of a single supplier? Yes. You are not tied to one capture provider or one recording system, and you keep control of your image archive.
Can I measure in panoramic images? Yes. Because every capture station is linked to the point cloud, you measure widths, heights and distances directly in the image.
What about GDPR? Faces and licence plates are blurred automatically.
Can I give my clients access as a capture provider? Yes. You invite the parties who need to be there, without a licence per user.
