Upload and display 360-degree images

You can upload 360-degree images to Cognite Data Fusion (CDF) and display them in its various programs and applications in the Reveal 3D viewer. 360-degree images are often captured as part of a point cloud scan, such as an E57 format file, but you can also capture and upload them manually or using robots.

When displayed in Reveal 3D viewer, the locations of the 360-degree images are displayed as round markers in the 3D view. Select a marker to enter the specific 360-degree image, and use your mouse to rotate the camera in any direction. You can select other markers to move to nearby 360-degree images.

Cubemap files

You need to upload the image files to Cognite Data Fusion (CDF), where each station has six cubemap images with a specific set of metadata. Together, the cubemap images constitute one 360-degree image, representing six directions (left, front, right, back, top, and bottom). The cubemap images can be available separately through file exports from the lidar scanning software or embedded in E57 point cloud files.

padoms

You can also use a set of 360 panoramic images (equirectangular images). Before uploading the images to CDF, you need to convert them to cubemap images, for example, with a tool like py360convert.

Upload 360-degree images​

You can upload 360-degree images to CDF in two ways:

After uploading in UI or using a custom script, you can view 360-degree images in Search by adding the 360-degree image collection to a scene. To see 360-degree images in custom applications using Reveal, see the Reveal documentation.

uzmanību

Uploading the 360-degree image metadata (pose information) to the Events API is no longer possible. This functionality has been deprecated and will stop working in the future.

E57 files with 360 degree images​

Follow these steps to upload the E57 files to CDF, trigger point cloud filtering and indexing, and opt-in to 360-degree image extraction.

Prerequisites:​

To use the 360-degree image extraction process, you must have the sessions:create and sessions:list capabilities (in addition to files:write and 3d:read and 3d:create).

Limitations:​

360-degree image extraction from E57 files is currently not supported for a 3D model with a dataset associated with it; it will fail with an HTTP 403 error.

Steps:​

  1. Upload your E57 files to CDF. If these files are large:

  2. Copy the main file ID you uploaded (Individual E57, ZIP, or JSON file).

  3. Navigate to Data management > Configure > 3D > Upload 3D models > + Add model.

  4. Name your model and select + Create Empty model to create the model without the initial file.

  5. In the new model, select More Actions > Filtering and Indexing.

  6. For Input data, select Choose your own file and enter the file ID you uploaded earlier.

  7. Select Extract 360° images > OK to start processing.

In custom script for other formatted 360 degree images​

Follow these steps to upload the cubemap images to CDF and specify the location and orientation of the 360-degree images in the data modeling service (DMS) instances.

  1. Upload the cubemap images to the Files API, for example, using a Python script. Each image file needs an externalID and a specific set of metadata.

    A unique externalID should be set for each file, and it should be the same as referenced from the corresponding Image360 instances image-360-cubemap-front and similar property fields.

    NameValueExample
    site_idA common identifier across all 360 images in the set. You will use this identifier when including the images in a scene.“site-S01-area-a03”
    site_nameA human-readable site name.“Norway Site S01 Area 03”
    station_idA unique identifier for the scanning position.“s01-a03-0012”
    station_nameA human-readable station name.“Area 03 - 0012”
    image_typeAlways “cubemap”.“cubemap”
    image_resolutionThe resolution of the cubemap image. The recommended resolution of cubemap images is 2048 x 2048 pixels.2048
    faceThe direction of the image (one of left, front, right, back, top, and bottom).“left”

  2. For each 360-degree image collection, use the Data modeling API to create a set of instances to specify the location and orientation of the images. For more information about ingesting and removing instances, see Ingesting instances into a graph or Create or update nodges/edges.

Three data model views are made explicitly for 360 images:

  • Image360Collection
  • Station360
  • Image360

If your project admin has allowed this, the models will be available with the cdf_360_image_schema system data model in all CDF projects.

You can store the instances in the same space, when ingesting instances for a collection through these three data model views. The DMS instances should have the following metadata:

Add 360-degree images to the scene​

To see the 360-degree images in CDF programs and applications using the Reveal 3D viewer, add 360-degree images to the scene.

For the E57 file with both point cloud and 360-degree images, add 3D data when configuring or editing the scene. Select the point cloud, the 360-degree image collection, and, optionally, the related 3D CAD model.

piezīme

The 360-degree images extracted from the E57 file set will be put in a 360-degree image collection named site-<modelId>-<revisionId>. For example, site-111-222, where 111 is the model ID and 222 is the revision ID.
