What sets siteviewer apart

A real space, usable digitally.

siteviewer combines a realistic representation with free movement and easy collaboration directly in the web browser.

  1. Capture photorealistically

    The environment becomes explorable in realistic, detailed depth.

  2. Move freely through the space

    Users explore the site intuitively and spatially.

  3. Shareable in the browser

    Project partners access the same tour from anywhere.

  4. Less travel effort

    Questions and alignment happen without extra on-site visits.

Solutions

Virtual tours for the places that matter.

Industry & factories

Virtual plant visits, site tours and internal alignment, without bringing staff, customers or partners on site every time.

Plan a virtual factory tour

Real estate & operations

Digitally capture and review building conditions, technical rooms and areas, and share them with maintenance, management or vendors.

Explore digital documentation

Brokers & marketing

Scale viewings, qualify prospects and show properties spatially before an on-site visit is needed.

Technology

No scanner required. Your own devices are enough.

siteviewer reconstructs your areas with Gaussian splatting from photos and video. Point clouds from laser, lidar or SLAM scanners are not needed. Capture happens with what a company already owns: usually a smartphone, a drone for façades and roofs, an action cam for large indoor and outdoor areas. If a single work area changes later, a capture of that area is enough: it is merged into the existing 3D model.

Typical accuracy 0.5 - 2 cm

Achievable accuracy depends on the capture device, environment and project requirements.

Smartphone

Enough for most sites – and you already own one.

Drone

For facades, roofs and hard-to-reach areas.

Action cam

For mobile capture of large indoor and outdoor areas.

Laser scanner optional

Not required, but possible – point clouds in E57 and PLY format can be brought in.

Process

Less effort. Better planning.

With siteviewer, a photo becomes a virtual tour through your building in three steps – not a rigid panorama, but a space you can move through freely.

  1. 01

    Capture the site

    Buildings, production areas or properties are captured photographically.

  2. 02

    Share the tour

    Staff, customers or service providers access the digital tour through siteviewer.

  3. 03

    Work in 3D

    Measurements, points of interest and comments can be placed directly in the tour.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about virtual building tours

A quick explanation of how siteviewer turns buildings, factories and properties into digitally walkable spaces from photos.

What does siteviewer create?

siteviewer creates virtual building tours from photos. This lets factories, commercial properties and buildings be explored, documented and shared spatially online.

Who is siteviewer for?

For industrial customers, real estate companies, facility management, brokers and operators who need virtual factory tours, building viewings or maintenance documentation.

Which technology does siteviewer use?

siteviewer uses Gaussian Splatting, a new 3D technology that creates a spatial, photorealistic representation from many photos. This makes buildings feel like freely walkable spaces rather than flat panoramas.

What is the difference to a 360-degree tour?

Classic 360-degree tours mostly show fixed panorama points. siteviewer instead creates a spatial view that users can move through more naturally.

How does a project start?

You briefly describe the building, location and goal. We then clarify whether a demo or a production rollout across several buildings makes sense.

Do I need to buy hardware?

No. A standard smartphone is enough. siteviewer reconstructs from photos and video – point clouds from laser, lidar or SLAM scanners are not needed. A drone or action cam helps with façades, roofs and large outdoor areas, but neither is a requirement. If a single work area changes later, a capture of that area is enough: it is merged into the existing 3D model.

Which buildings and areas are suitable for a virtual tour?

Suitable objects include factories, production and warehouse areas, technical rooms, commercial real estate, offices, and other indoor and outdoor areas. The project goal and sufficiently complete photographic capture are decisive.

How long does capturing a building take?

The time required depends on size, accessibility and desired level of detail. A compact object can be captured faster than an extensive factory. Before the project, we align the capture plan and effort to the building.

What accuracy is possible with digital building documentation?

Achievable accuracy is typically around 0.5 to 2 cm. The exact value depends on the capture device, environment, capture quality and project requirements.

Can existing photos or videos be used?

Existing captures can generally be reviewed. A good 3D reconstruction requires areas to be captured completely, sharply and with sufficient overlap. If material is missing, we plan targeted supplementary captures.

Is the siteviewer demo free?

Yes. The demo is free. You register at app.siteviewer.com, create a site yourself and run through the whole workflow to a walkable result. You can also open a ready-made demo project without capturing anything yourself. Production use through Core or Enterprise is paid.

Can I test siteviewer without talking to sales first?

Yes. You register independently at app.siteviewer.com; a sales call is not required for the test. For larger projects, specific requirements or tenders, our team is also available to you.
