A panoramic view of 360 photos
Photo documentation is now the norm in the construction industry. How does 360-degree photography fit in?
In the construction industry, photo documentation plays a crucial role in capturing the progress and details of a project. From pre-construction to completion, photo documentation gives all key stakeholders a visual record of the entire construction process, providing numerous benefits that span communication, risk management, and analysis.
360 cameras can help you easily gather documentation throughout the lifecycle of a construction project. But what exactly is a 360-degree camera, how does the technology work, and what are its benefits? Let’s dive in.
How different stakeholders use 360 photos
What is the future of 360 photos in construction?
As with many other construction technologies, the future of 360 photo documentation is intertwined with artificial intelligence (AI).
As AI technology continues to advance, it will become faster and easier to extract insights from 360 photo documentation and use them to improve quality assurance and enhance project management processes. By leveraging machine learning algorithms to process 360 photos, AI can also identify and flag potential issues or discrepancies in construction projects. This automated analysis will not only save time but also improve accuracy and prevent costly rework.
Furthermore, 360 photos will increasingly be integrated into other documentation workflows, such as 3D laser scanning. Combining these technologies allows for a more holistic approach to capturing project data, resulting in more accurate documentation and more streamlined workflows.
