Volume Measurement

SiteView now incorporates Volume Measurement functionality and enables measurements directly from the Capture Viewer or via the 3D Dollhouse within the Plan Viewer. Thanks to Cupix's advanced 3D mapping technology, documenting the jobsite has become an effortless task and offers both accuracy and convenience. With the advent of the new Volume Measurement feature, a realm of possibilities unfolds before you: from calculating rough estimates like earth cut and fill to excavation and optimizing cargo space, or even evaluating crop growth, all these tasks can be accomplished right from the confines of your workspace. 

Measuring Volume is straightforward: by simply defining a Base Plane, the tool automatically computes both the mass above the plane's surface and the space below it. For step-by-step guidance on specifying the Base Plane, please refer to the short guide videos below.

How to Set Base Plane ① - Default Method

This method is the easiest and most fundamental way to measure volume in SiteView. 

  1. Pick points around the subject you want to measure and then press Enter. Base Plane will be generated automatically based on those points. 

How to Set Base Plane ② - Setting Up Reference Plane

This method comes in handy when there's not enough geometry around the subject you want to measure for placing points. This method can also be used when a common reference plane is needed to facilitate easy comparison between measured volumes.

  1. Pick at least three points around the desired location, where you want to set a Reference Plane, and press Enter. Refernce Plane will be generated automatically based on those points.
  2. Pick points around the subject you want to measure and then press Enter. Base Plane will be generated automatically based on those points.

Measurement List

Our newly introduced feature allows you to save and share Measured Dimensions effortlessly with other members invited to the SiteView. When a dimension is measured, it will get sorted based on its Capture Date, mirroring the organization of Annotation. When you click on a measurement from the list, you will be promptly directed to the Measured Location. This not only facilitates a closer examination of the dimension but also enhances your comprehension of the surrounding environment. For added convenience in sharing, you can make use of the Deeplink located in the Share menu at the lower left corner of the Site View, ensuring seamless collaboration with colleagues whenever the need arises.

Measurement List's Interface

  1. Measurement Tools: Length, Radius, Angle, Plane, Path, Area, Volume can be measured.
  2. Type Filter: Only filtered type(s) of dimensions will be displayed in the Measurement List, Capture & Plan Viewer.
  3. Capture Date Filter: This filter can display dimensions corresponding to the Capture Date selected in the Main Capture Viewer only or show all dimensions from all Capture Dates.
  4. Group Menu: All dimensions in the Group can be copied to a clipboard or the entire Measurement Group can be deleted.
  5. Measurement Menu: An individual dimension can be copied to a clipboard or deleted from the Group. Measurement's name can also be edited as well.

3D Dollhouse Opacity Adjustment

Users can now adjust the opacity of the 3D Dollhouse. This functionality is particularly valuable when comparing various floor plans with 3D Dollhouses. By making simple adjustments to the opacity of the 3D Dollhouse, users can easily observe information from 2D plans, such as dimensions and markups, as they are projected onto the floor of the 3D Dollhouse.

How to Adjust 3D Dollhouse Opacity

  1. Click the 3D View Settings in the toolbar at the bottom of the Plan Viewer.
  2. Adjust the Point Transparency.

3D Dollhouse Clipping View Adjustment

The latest update introduces the ability for users to modify the X, Y, and Z clipping planes within the 3D Dollhouse. By incorporating this new feature, users can attain more concentrated and intricate insights into the actual constructed state and can conduct deliberate analysis of distinct components such as walls, floors, and columns effortlessly. This capability becomes exceptionally beneficial in scenarios comparing 3D Dollhouse and BIM models. It allows for accurate assessment and also is invaluable when strategically situating BIM objects within the spatial constraints of the 3D Dollhouse.

How to Adjust Clipping Plane

  1. Click on the clipping tool located in the toolbar at the bottom of the Plan Viewer.
  2. Adjust the X, Y, and Z values by either sliding the controls or directly inputting values into the designated fields.

3D Dollhouse Quality Enhancement

Our 3D Dollhouse has taken a significant leap in quality. With the use of 360-degree videos, our 3D Dollhouse not only greatly reduces noise, but also captures even the most intricate surface details, effectively addressing photogrammetric challenges such as colorless walls. This substantial technological advancement translates into a more thorough 3D representation and documentation of a jobsite's status, which makes it even easier to use for generating as-built 2D plans and BIM. It's worth noting that this improvement in quality doesn't involve any changes to our capturing method. As a result, the user's jobsite documentation remains as accessible and efficient as it has always been.

Dollhouse in Plan Viewer

With CupixWorks Y, it is now possible to generate 3D dollhouse views from a 360° video walk, providing a visually intuitive and efficient way to comprehend the spatial context of the job site. These views are now accessible through the Plan Viewer and come with exclusive functionalities specifically tailored for the dollhouse view, including camera presets and an elevation heatmap. 

  • Perspective/Orthomosaic View: Toggles between a realistic 3D perspective view and an orthomosaic view in 2D
  • Camera Preset: allows you to quickly and easily adjust the camera angle to one of six pre-set positions; Top, Bottom, Front, Back, Left, Right
  • Hide/Show Pano Bubbles: Hide or show Pano Bubbles
  • Elevation Heatmap: Shows the elevation in different colors
  • Reset Zoom: Restore the zoom level to its default setting

SiteView Designer

It is now possible to predefine the data to be displayed in SiteView and save pre-designed layouts as templates. Project Admins can customize SiteView to meet the diverse needs of different stakeholders.

Furthermore, the concepts of Grid Layout and Freeform Layout have been introduced. The Grid Layout enables the storage of multiple templates to fulfill various needs, while the Freeform Layout allows viewers to be undocked and displayed on separate screens, enabling a more extensive view.

The New SiteView UI

In order to provide a more spacious viewing area for important information such as panoramic images and BIM, less critical elements such as the SiteView name and team logo have been removed from the current SiteView user interface. Additionally, frequently used function icons have been relocated to the left sidebar for enhanced visibility.

  • SiteView Menu: The SiteView menu contains the Project name and allows users to copy the SiteView link.
  • Templates: Templates are predesigned SiteView layouts customized using the new SiteView Designer.
  • Annotations: This opens the annotation tab. It can be hidden from the SiteView Designer.
  • Captures: Capture availability based on levels, rooms and dates.
  • Zoom Fit: Restore the zoom level to its default setting.
  • Measures: Measuring dimensions and more, such as Radius, Path, Angle and Area.
