Article summary

In NavVis IVION, you can create multiple Sites within one NavVis IVION Instance. A site groups scan data, points of interest, and user permissions into unique projects or locations.

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 of your screen.

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

  6. Click Next.

  7. Pick a location for your site on the map. To do that:

    1. Search for an address or coordinates.

    2. If necessary, adjust the location of the location picker.

  8. ( Advanced) You can enter a precise location for your site. To do that:

    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 or the rotation of the x-axis ( rx) and y-axis ( ry).

  9. ( Advanced) You can define a spatial reference system as a projected, metric system for your site. To do that:

    1. Click Show advanced settings.

    2. Select Spatial Reference System.

    3. Start typing a name and select the desired spatial reference system from the options that appear.

    4. Pick a location on the map to define the base point. This will automatically fill in the x and y values of the base point. Alternatively, you can enter these values manually.

      Note: The base point is the project coordinate system origin (0,0,0) and all site data needs to be loaded within 20km of that point. The data processed in a spatial reference system will not reference that point, but will reference the related EPSG code's real-world origin.

    5. Enter the height of the base point.

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