Linear Measurements from Stereoscopic 360 Panoramic Images

Some assets have been captured with stereoscopic 360 panoramic images, such as the R2S solution. This legacy data can now be uploaded to Cintoo Cloud and used exclusively for visualization and linear measurements.

Restrictions

• The stereoscopic 360 panoramic images must be well aligned in the 3D coordinate system
• Each 360 panoramic image from the stereoscopic pair must be named as:
  • Imagename_up for the upper image
  • Imagename_dn for the lower image.
• 3D measurements will be linear measurements only

Uploading stereoscopic 360 panoramic images

Please follow the instructions in this article: Import and Display 360 Images (Beta)

3D Measurements from stereoscopic 360 panoramic images

• In the 3D view, select one image of the pair and click on the Measurements tool

• From the naming convention listed in Restrictions above, Cintoo Cloud recognizes that this panoramic image is coming as a pair with no 3D data.
• Click on + Add measurement
• The display will then stay in panoramic mode
• Click the 2 points that correspond to a desired linear measurement

• Then click on Switch Up (or Switch Down depending on the starting image) to move the other image of the pair: 

• Repeat the 2 clicks in this second panoramic image, and the measurement will appear once  clicked the second point:

• The measurement is also listed at the top of the 3D view, click on Save to save the measurement:

• All linear measurements are listed in the Measurement List:

• Name of the measurement is editable at any time:

• Clicking on Edit will pop-up the editing window

• Note that the measurement cannot be adjusted. If there is a mistake please delete the measurement first and do it again.
• Deleting a measurement can be done from the Delete button corresponding to each measurement:

Exporting the list of measurements

• Go to the Report tab.
• Make sure that Measurements is selected as part of the Activities that are displayed and exported.
• Each measurement is listed in the tab. When clicking on one of them, see the thumbnail and it's possible to open the measurement in 3D View by clicking on 3D View button.
• Note that only the Length is a valid measurement. Do not use Height or Width as references.
• To export this list as a PDF click on Export as PDF:

• Generating the PDF file usually takes a few seconds. It may take longer if there is a lot of data to be published.
