[R&D] Mashing up Google Earth, Matterport and 3DVista17876

This virtual tour prototype is a combination of several immersive and 3D technologies coming together in a single cohesive experience. In particular, we mashed up:
- Google Earth for the landscape (see tutorial https://youtu.be/F_XsmoZJmG8)

- Matterport for the building section (we used Blender to embed the Matterpak OBJ from a previous building scan)
- 3DVista for the walkthrough (we extracted the panoramas from the Matterport tour).

The subject of this demo is a historical building in Trieste, Italy called the Hydrodynamic Power station.
Developed by María Sánchez Isaza in collaboration with the Bellevue College XR Lab

@meshimages thanks! This proof of concept was inspired by a new 3D feature in 3DVista that is still in beta. They released a tutorial yesterday:

You make my head spin!

Thank you for another AWESOME Matterport mash-up.

Plus, thanks for sharing the video - How to Import Google Maps into Blender. That's amazing!

I could imagine that if the Google Maps is current, it's another option for an aerial view (particularly in restricted air-space).

I could imagine that it is hard work to make it look so easy / so seamless!

Happy holidays,

Dan

@dansmigrod thanks! Somebody just reminded me that extracting Google Earth images for commercial purposes may require some sort of license, which I haven't researched yet. Just something to keep in mind.

My understanding after reading about it was that you should add a Google Earth logo at the beginning of using their images and at the bottom there is a small text showing Google’s source. Copy and paste this at bottom. It can be very small. Basically you can use them as long as you acknowledge the source.

Yes, correct. I’m not sure about the 3D ripping from Google Earth, but I have successfully created 3D models from Google Earth Fly-Around videos in Agisoft Metashape photogrammetry software. If you then add the Google credit to the 3D, everything should be fine according to the Terms of Service of Google Earth Studio.
