These coordinate systems can be exactly expressed using their {{glossary.EPSG}} number.ProcedureWhen importing data into NavVis IVION, it is vital to create your {{glossary.Site}} correctly. When creating the site, two things should be observed:The site Base Point must be created within a 20km radius of all {{glossary.Dataset}}s which are to be imported into this site.

The cameras must then be moved virtually to the center. Due to parallax (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallax), moving the cameras causes objects in the foreground to move more than objects in the background. If there's a strong discontinuity in depth between foreground and background, moving the ...
