Adding a Site

Use this guide to add a site to a NavVis IVION Instance. A site groups scan data, points of interest, and user access rights into a separate project or location. You must be a global admin to complete this task.

Note: Only global admins can add sites to NavVis IVION.

1. On the NavVis IVION Instance dashboard, click + Create Site in the bottom-right corner.

   

2. Click Upload, or drag an image onto the upload area, to add a preview image for the site.

   

3. Enter a name for the site.

   

4. Optionally, enter a description under Site description.

   

5. To make the site visible to all users who have a link, without requiring them to log in, switch on the toggle under Site visibility. For more information, see Managing User Group setting.

   

   Note: If your instance is private, making the site visible means that all logged-in users can view the site.

6. Click Next.

7. Select a location for your site on the map:

   1. Search for an address or coordinates.

   2. If needed, adjust the location pin.

      

8. (Advanced) To enter a precise location using latitude and longitude:

   1. Click Show advanced settings.

   2. Select Lat & Long (WGS 84).

   3. Enter the latitude, longitude, and height of the base point.

   4. Optionally, define a rotation for the spatial reference system by entering the angle for the x-axis (rx) and y-axis (ry).

      

9. (Advanced) To define a projected, metric spatial reference system for your site:

   1. Click Show advanced settings.

   2. Select Spatial Reference System.

   3. Start typing a name, then select the spatial reference system from the options that appear.

   4. Click a location on the map to define the base point. The x and y values fill in automatically. You can also enter these values manually.

      Note: The base point is the project coordinate system origin (0,0,0) and all site data must be loaded within 20 km of that point. Data processed in a spatial reference system does not reference that point; it references the real-world origin of the related EPSG code.

   5. Enter the height (z) of the base point in meters.

   6. Optionally, define a rotation for the spatial reference system by entering the angle for the x-axis (rx) and y-axis (ry).

      

10. Click Create Site.
