WGAN Question of the Day

Question of the Day: Is Property Insurance Documentation a Business Opportunity for you?

Hi All,

The WGAN Forum Question of the Day for Wednesday, 25 September 2024:

Question of the Day: Auto-creates tour platform with free offline viewer?

Please see detailed question below from a WGAN Member that gave me permission to post the question.

Best,

Hi Dan

You might have came across this question many times but for me I still can’t find a solution.

For years I’ve been doing Virtual tours primarily for the the use of Construction documentation where my clients will need this service on a new or renovated house or building to document the roughing and anything inside the walls before it’s being closed up with Sheetrock, so they can lookup anything later in the years to come if any problem arise or for whatever reason they need to see aging what’s going on inside the walls.

I started out by using Matterport, but quickly realized the problem I’m facing with paying for hosting, since this type of virtual tour service is something a customer relies on for the next 20/30 years I can’t commit my self to pay my Matterport subscription for them for such a long period of time.

1) I might not be in business anymore
2) Matterport might be changing their terms and conditions that don’t work for me
3) and generally I can’t sell such a service when neither me as the service provider or the client is fully owns for the service they paid for.

My solution was to switch over to “Cupix Works” because they do have the option to download and a offline viewer plus many more good features they had.

For example I was able to upload any 360 photos captured with a 360 camera and they did the mapping process and so with that I was able to download my Matterport tours through a third party and had them all uploaded to Cupix, plus many more good features they have.

Still every one has their Pros and Cons and I couldn’t keep up with cost for Cupix since it’s not a SAAS and they bill you on a yearly subscription based on a contract.

My question to you now is:

You have way more knowledge then me in this industry.

Do you know or can you come up with a solution for me of a software or maybe a combination of more then one soft that I can create my work flow to achieve the above mentioned scenario for my clients without needing to be tied to monthly subscription and hosting fees where I’m not owning my data?

What I’m mainly looking for and obviously ready to pay is a platform that:

1) automatically does the mapping of the individual 360 photos (some call photogrammetry) which is laying down the hotspots in correct position

2) it can be self hosted and/or download for viewing without me needing to pay subscription fees

I would really appreciate if you can give me your input and trying to help me solve this.

Thank you.

Best regards,

P.S. I think it’s better that you post.
