New asset - PIX4Dinspect

This article goes step by step through the process of creating a new asset in Pix4Dinspect.

An asset is a collection of cloud-based projects, called projects, that allow generating Intelligent Digital twin, visualize them in 2D and 3D, inspect the reconstructed models and annotate images for collaboration.

There are two ways to access the New Asset wizard.

• Before creating a project: at the top left of the dashboard, click and select New Asset.
• While creating a new project, whose asset has not been created in advance.

Define the asset's properties in the New Asset wizard.

• Location: WGS84 (EPSG:4326) coordinates that identify the location of the asset.
  The coordinates can be defined by:
  
  • Manually inserting them in the Location field, with the format [latitude, longitude] in degrees.
  • Selecting the asset's location on the map. The address of the location can be inserted in the search bar for faster focusing on the map.

• Asset name: univocal name given to the asset.
• Asset type: category of the asset. Available options are:
  • Telecom (for inspect-telecom licenses only, contact sales for more information):
    • Self-support
    • Monopole
    • Guyed tower
    • Rooftop
    • Watertower
  • Generic:
    • Transmission tower
    • Rooftop
    • Building
    • Bridge
    • Cooling tower
    • Energy utility
    • Other

• Asset Description (optional): a short description of the asset.

Click Save to finalize the asset creation.

The asset is now created and visible on the dashboard. Projects can be added to the asset.
