How to use 3D tours, virtual walkthroughs and 360° photography -

Commercial Premises:

Use a 3D model and virtual tour to see and share your building and infrastructure in new ways; enhance the building user’s experience.

Facilities Managers and HR Teams:

• Build a comprehensive Operations and Maintenance document in a model that can be accessed across the organisation.

• Use the model as a key Health & Safety tool for emergency planning and response - enable users to understand critical safety infrastructure and safe evacuation routes.

• Increase situational awareness for employees and first responders in case of an emergency.

• Educate new employees on complex facilities (and where the coffee stations and photocopiers are) — especially in hard to reach or potentially dangerous areas.

• Share a 3D walk-through of your facilities with new or visiting employees, contractors and other third parties, so they can quickly understand your space - and their way around an office or facility - quickly and easily.

• Use the model as a digital twin for space-planning and spatial reorganisation; engage with internal workplace stakeholders and external contractors.

Hotels, restaurants, bars and hospitality venues:

As we all adapt to new ways of working in and visiting the spaces where we meet, eat and stay, providing accessible and easily understood guidance and information will be critical. To that end, a 3D tour and model can be used as an all encompassing tool:

• Enable visitors/customers to understand your space ahead of arrival.

• Illustrate wayfinding, the location of facilities, and circulation routes.

• Link the tour to information about specific facilities - display a menu for your restaurant or cafe; show the leaflet that outlines the treatments available at your spa or health club; highlight special promotions and guide users to other areas of your website.
