Adding a Site

In NavVis IVION you can create multiple sites within one 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.

Follow these steps to add a site to NavVis IVION:

  1. On the NavVis IVION instance dashboard, click + Create Site in the bottom right corner of your screen.
  2. Optionally, upload a preview image for the site by clicking Upload or dragging and dropping an image.
  3. Enter a name for the site.
  4. Optionally, add a description for the site under Site description.
  5. If you want the site to be visible to all users, who have a link to the site, without logging in, use the toggle button under Site Visibility.
    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).
  10. Click Create Site.
