Google Earth is very widely distributed, and has been downloaded over 2 million times. It allows users to zoom in to just about any location in the world, and view a satilite image of that area. Interactive tags are also available for more information, pictures, and now also 360 degree virtual tours.
Pole Aerial Photography
Its amazing how different, and attractive, a higher perspective can be. Now with a 4.85 meter high pole, 360sa can create virtual tours with an elevated perspective. Have a look at the samples below to see how this enhances the final product. A wireless remote shutter system is used to trigger the images which are captured in series to later be merged into a single 360 degree image. We recently created an elevated 360 degree photo of Chruch Square in Pretoria using the nearly 5 meter high pole system. Notice how high the perspective feels in the images captured by the elevated pole photography, which better portrays the surrounding area in more detail. Pole Aerial PhotographyWe now offer both 360 degree images on the elevated pole, and normal still images from the elevated pole. Below is an example virtual tour of the City Hall of Pretoria, taken from an elevated pole for a high view perspective over the hall and stage area. Click on the image and drag your mouse to look around. Click full screen for best effect.
