SiteSee
SiteSeeTM is a powerful visualisation tool developed by AOC. The 360 degree views offered by SiteSee enable users to visualise any features as if they were actually there. It has proven a safe method of visualising hazardous sites and an efficient way of 'walking through' a remote site.
The process commences with AOC collecting a series of stationary spherical images. Numerous overlapping photographs are acquired and then stitched together using feature matching algorithms, similar to those found in aerial photogrammetric software packages. The resulting images are colour-balanced to produce finished spherical products that are seamless.
Teams viewing SiteSee can be based anywhere in the world. Various viewing platforms, including web-enabled viewers, increase the flexibility and accessibility of these visualisation datasets. SiteSee enables virtual walkthroughs of the plant by hyper-linking each spherical photograph within the SiteSee system. Powerful zoom functionality is another feature of the high resolution imagery featured in SiteSee.
Each image in SiteSee can be tied to a CAD file of the project area to provide a point-and-see capability. If a general arrangement of the site is not readily available, the virtual walk-through will be tied into the orthophotography or other imagery of the plant or target area. This convergence of technologies is another example of how AOC’s full service approach delivers integrated spatial solutions.
