A three-dimensional representation of an environment, made up of many points. A point is defined by x, y and z coordinates, and it may or may not contain RGB, an intensity value, and normals.
Site refers to a complex of one or more buildings displayed in a NavVis IVION instance. For example, the Munich Airport would be one site. An instance can contain multiple sites. Each site consists of one or more datasets.
Location markers are the white discs displayed on the floor in the panoramic images. They correspond to the locations where the mapping device captured panoramic images. Clicking on one of them moves the panorama view to the location it stands for.
In the map view, you can see the 2D maps of the site and where the site is located on a world map. By default, the map view is displayed in the mini view, which is the small window in the bottom right corner of the NavVis IVION interface. Clicking on the two small arrows on the bottom right corner of the screen switches between panorama view and map view.
