Multi GCP Location Editor

Use this editor to position your asset with ground control points (GCP) if you have surveyed your mapped area and have geo-spatial data for multiple points.

tip

This editor works with WGS84 (EPSG:4326) geographic coordinates only.

Ground Control Points Editor

1.​

By default, three ground control points (GCPs) are listed. Use the Add Ground Control Point button to add more points.
For each GCP:

  • Click the ^ arrow to expand or collapse details.
  • Enter the surveyed Latitude, Longitude, and Elevation coordinates (in meters).
  • After entering all GCPs, click Update Asset Location button and the GCP Error value will be updated to display the point error.
  • Use Place GCP to select a corresponding point on your 3D asset.
  • The Clear GCP button removes both the entered data and selected position from the asset.

2.​

The Add Ground Control Point button allows you to include additional points in the list.

3.​

The Update Asset Location button calculates the optimal asset position and rotation based on the GCP data, then updates the asset's location on the globe map.

4.​

If your surveyed elevation differs from the virtual map's terrain elevation, use the Elevation Offset field to adjust the asset's display level, ensuring it appears correctly on the terrain.

5.​

If your asset is located underground or underwater, enable this option. The terrain map will become transparent when users approach the asset, revealing a yellow guide line that indicates its location below the surface.
