Switch between the 2D map, 3D, 360, and flyover views

Every project shows the same site through different lenses. Move between them with the row of tabs along the top of the viewer. Your measurements, notes, layers and units carry across when you switch.

The tabs, and what each one shows

  • 2D Map — your true-color overhead map (orthomosaic). Switch data layers here, such as elevation and vegetation health (NDVI), when your project includes them.
  • Ground View (360) — eye-height 360° panoramas placed on the map, as if you were standing on site.
  • 3D Mesh — your site as a single textured 3D mesh file you can orbit, tilt and zoom.
  • Point Cloud — the full-density 3D scan. Rotate it, recolor it by height or intensity, and slice cross-sections.
  • 3D Model — the photoreal model, built from oblique (angled) photos. It streams in, sharpening as you zoom, and shows the sides of buildings.
  • Flyover — drone video of the site, with a synced flight map on clips that carry telemetry.
  • Compare — two flight dates side by side, to spot what changed.
You only see tabs for the views your project includes.

How to switch

Click or tap a tab. The new view opens right away. On the 2D views, your last map position is remembered.

If you don't see all the tabs

  • On a desktop, small ‹ › arrows appear at the ends of the row when the tabs don't fit. Click them, or use the left/right arrow keys once a tab is focused.
  • On a phone, the tabs shrink to icons with short labels (2D, 360, Mesh, PtCld, 3D, Video, Cmp), so every view fits at once.

A note on guided tours

A film-clapper badge with a number on a tab means that view has guided tours: short camera fly-throughs. Open the tab and press play.
