HOW IT WORKS
AOS
AOS is a service which runs on your web browser. It has plenty of features, but let’s begin by going through the very basic case on how to set up and use a 360 project.
360 images
AOS models are based on 360 images. They are quick, easy and affordable to take while you already work at the project site.
The 360 model represents “as built” opposed to “as designed”. It represents the actual state of the project. The model can be updated easily while the project proceeds.
The 360 photo model may be supplemented with photogrammetry, laser scan and CAD models.
Taking the photos
Taking 360 photos is by far easiest with a 360 camera.
We recommend Insta360 One R 360 or GoPro Max for most use cases. These are rugged, moderately priced and the images require no post processing. Insta360 Pro 1 or 2 is a good choice for very high end images.
Setting up your project
You will have an administrator rights to your own AOS entity called an organization. With AOS Admin tool you control your organization structure, projects and access lists.
- Get a licence to access your own AOS organization
- Log in to AOS Admin tool to create a 360 project
- Add your team members to the project
Creating the model
The built-in AOS editor makes it easy to create a 360 experience.
- Place 360 images on the floor plan with the editor, or use EXIF GPS data to place them automatically
- Optional: Add navigation arrows to images
- Share the model to your team
Communicate with your team
AOS is a communication portal for the entire project team. An efficient way to notify others is to create a marker which contains information on your observations.
- Add a marker to an image or to a layout
- Attach a file to your marker
- It can be an image, video, pdf etc.
- It can also contain a link to a website
- Your team will be notified of your findings
Add supplementary models and data
You can add pointcloud and CAD models to support your 360 model with more details for measurement.
- Add more “as built” details with pointclouds
- Compare “as built” against “as designed” with CAD models
- Import data structures via CSV
- See how your engineering models and the existing brown-field environment comes together
- Use point-clouds to obtain precise dimensional information e.g. for tie-in engineering

Utilizing the service in projects – customer cases:
- Rejlers PM mobilizes during the proposal phase creating a model. The 360 service replaces the traditional photos and goes way beyond. All our offices have a 360 camera.
- All discipline leads have the model available resulting better and more accurate estimates.
- During the project execution phase all stakeholders have the same view w/o visiting the project site!
1. Site visits are restricted in frequency, number of visitors and duration due to Covid-19.
2. One person shoots a new set of 360 photos weekly. Model is refreshed accordingly.
3. All stakeholders obtain an up-to-date view
The customer conducted the Factory Acceptance Tests in the AO Service. All observations were noted into the model.
The model was used for the detail planning and communication starting from the proposal phase.
- A European company had a prospect in Australia.
- They couldn’t travel to the site due to Covid-19. Their local rep visited the site and took pictures.
- A model was built and the entire project team gained a view to the project.
