2D view of the project: If a project has been uploaded, an overview plan or a sheet is created automatically. The 2D view shows this sheet. In the figure above, you can see the following objects:

  • Trajectory (blue line)

  • Waypoints (blue dots)
  • Flash scans or 360° images (blue and white dots)
  • A measurement (ruler icon)
  • An annotation (speech bubble icon).

If you click a waypoint, a Flash scan or a 360° image, the view changes to the walk mode view assuming the perspective from the selected point.
