Shepperton Studios, London, 23 September 2014 – Arithmetica, the company behind SphereVision, has released a suite of software solutions designed to complement their 360 degree video capture systems and services. vMap360 and RouteView360 video mapping software allow for the registration of 360 degree video imagery to floor plans, maps, aerial photography and even online mapping system such as Google Maps. Allowing users to explore remote locations from the comfort of their desktop vMap360 will be officially launched at the Intergeo event; the conference and trade fair for Geodesy, Geoinformation and Land Management, being held in Berlin 7-9 October 2014.
“Our SphereVision 360 degree recording systems, including portable kits and mobile installations, are suitable for use in all terrains and environments, releasing the power of video data capture to a wide range of applications and market sectors,” commented Mark Senior, Business Development Manager at Arithmetica. “The release of vMap360 allows for the registration of these video images giving users an easy to use, easy to interpret, real world, 360 degree, fully referenced view of any location.”
vMap360 video mapping software allows users to integrate 360 degree video images with maps, floor plans, technical drawings and even aerial photomaps. This allows users to explore remote locations such as overseas factories, construction sites, road and railway routes gaining valuable situational awareness. Applications include security and risk assessment, safety training, project management and reporting, and marketing and publicity.
RouteView360 is described as a ‘Google style’ street mapping solution. Allowing for the integration of 360 degree GPS stamped video imaging with traditional road maps, town plans or more customised map data RouteView360 provides immediate online interactive awareness of remote locations. High resolution image frames, referenced using GPS data, can be opened up from any map position and explored. A direction view and position indication help the user orientate and navigate their way around before zooming into the video data to analyse the location in detail.
