SiteView Measurement List
TABLE OF CONTENTS
Introduction
SiteView lets you take measurements from any of the data captured on your project, including 360° panos, 3D dollhouses, point clouds, meshes, BIM, 3D objects, and reference plans.
Measurements can be made in SiteView within these viewers:
- Capture Viewer
- BIM Viewer
- Plan Viewer
Note: Your personal preference for the unit of measure overrides the project unit of measure in SiteView.
For example, if you prefer M, all measurements will occur in M, even if the project is set up in FT.
You can switch your personal preference to the project setting, and then switch it back as needed.
