PTGui, Autopano GigaClient’s Challenges with Creating Virtual from Drone Images
The client's primary business requirement was to produce a virtual tour of a golf course located in Battle, a town about 55 miles from London. The client also wanted to include hot spots during the virtual tour process that could highlight ground level locations such as the golf course lodge, putting and driving surfaces, bar, restaurant, and retail shop. This assignment involved image stitching of drone panoramas — a highly specialized process that only a few professional photo editing companies such as BackOffice Pro can provide.
Custom Solution on Drone Image Stitching at BOP
Knowing that even slight deviations could make the virtual tour seem unprofessional, Back Office Pro assembled an expert team to meet all client requirements. The BOP team chose a combination of Autopano Giga and PTGui software. Because of a high level of advanced photo editing training and image stitching experience, the virtual tour was created for the client in 2.5 hours by one BOP photo editor.
While image stitching is always a complicated task, the use of drone panoramas added a new dimension to this project — and the client insisted on accuracy and perfection so that the final virtual tour would have a professional and impressive appearance for prospective customers. Another challenge involved the client's request to accommodate viewers moving vertically and horizontally through the virtual tour content. This required a 3D wide-field tour that permitted user navigation during the virtual time. However, we met the challenges efficiently with our expert team.
