New Release: Nebula 2.1 & Nebula Creator
1. Nebula Creator
What it’s for
With the Nebula Creator, everyone can finally use Nebula for free – regardless of whether you’re already an Origins user or not.
The Creator is a free desktop software that prepares point cloud projects for online visualization in Nebula.
How it works
Download the Creator. Convert your point cloud data and add panos if you wish. Then simply follow the usual Nebula workflow. Done!
2. Nebula 2.1 – Most important new Features
AWS (Amazon Web Services) Compatibility
What it’s for
As promised, we are continuously expanding the number of cloud services that can be connected to Nebula. Due to strong demand, this update introduces support for AWS.
How it works
In the video, we show step by step how to connect your AWS account to Nebula – even without extensive IT knowledge.
The short version? Just follow the instructions laid out in Nebula.
New Download Manager
What it’s for
Our new Download Manager allows you to download orthophotos and 3D points directly in the browser – a long-awaited feature. This allows you not only to visualize results, but also to easily share them.
How it works
The video provides a detailed walkthrough.
The short version? Open the Download Manager, select all required elements, and download them.
Height and Cluster Navigation
What it’s for
To make navigation in Nebula even more intuitive, scan positions can now be filtered and displayed by height or cluster.
How it works
The video includes a detailed explanation.
The short version? Simply filter by height or cluster and show or hide scan positions as needed.
"Display Range" Option in Bubble Views
What it’s for
The perfect complement to the new height and cluster navigation! The “Display Range” function allows scan positions to be shown or hidden based on their distance from your current viewpoint in the Bubble View.
How it works
Simply select the distance from which scan positions should be displayed via the menu in the top right corner.
Measurements & POIs in Bubble Views
What it’s for
Another great enhancement for the Bubble View: measurements and POIs can now also be created directly within the Bubble View.
How it works
Download the coordinates, then use Ctrl + mouse click to measure distances and 3D points.
Of course, POIs can also be enriched with additional links and documentation.
