    Your Scan Data, Open in Any Browser

    Professional Cloud Point Cloud & Panorama Hosting

    Stop emailing 100 GB files. We host your registered point cloud and panoramas in a browser viewer your whole team can open, measure in, and share — no Revit or ReCap seats required.

    TL;DR: We host your registered point cloud and 360° panoramas in a cloud viewer — clipped, streamed, and measurable from any browser. Typical project datasets run 25–150 GB; nobody on your team has to download or install anything to use them.

    What This Service Is

    Cloud Point Cloud & Panorama Hosting, explained simply

    Point cloud files are enormous — often 25–150 GB per building — and most stakeholders don't have the software or hardware to open them. Cloud hosting fixes that: we publish your scan data to a streaming viewer where anyone with the link can navigate, section, and measure it.

    Streams full point clouds without local downloads
    Works in any modern browser, any device
    Measurement and section tools built in
    Panoramas and geometry linked in one viewer

    Why It Matters

    Real impact on AEC project outcomes

    Every stakeholder works from the same dataset

    No software purchases to use your own data

    Questions answered in minutes, not site visits

    Scan data keeps producing value after delivery

    Painless sharing with rotating subcontractors

    One current source of truth per building

    How It Works

    From kickoff to delivery in 4 clear steps

    1

    Capture or Import

    We host data from our own scans — or registered clouds you already own.

    2

    Optimize

    Clipping, tiling, and streaming preparation so big data loads fast.

    3

    Publish

    Your project goes live in the viewer with the access rules you choose.

    4

    Support

    We onboard your team and keep hosting live for the term you need.

    Typical turnaround: days, not weeks

    Most cloud point cloud & panorama hosting projects move from on-site capture to deliverables in under two weeks—rush options available.

    Who It's For

    Built for teams that can't afford guesswork

    • Owners whose teams don't run CAD or BIM software
    • GCs sharing conditions with a dozen subs at once
    • Design teams collaborating across firms
    • Facility managers using scans day-to-day
    • Estimators pulling takeoff dimensions
    Problems It Solves

    Stop losing time and money to bad data

    • Datasets too large to email or download
    • Stakeholders locked out by software licensing
    • Workstations that choke on full-resolution clouds
    • Every consultant getting a different data copy
    • Scan data that gets delivered once and never used
    What You Get

    Specific deliverables, in formats your team already uses

    Streaming browser viewer for the full point cloud
    Linked 360° panorama navigation
    Measurement, sectioning, and clipping tools
    Team access management and shareable links
    Your master E57/RCP files remain yours, always
    Example Cloud Point Cloud & Panorama Hosting project
    Example Use Case

    38,400 sq ft hospital wing — data everyone could open

    A renovation team's nurses-station-by-nurses-station planning meant designers, the GC, and facilities all needed the scan — but only one seat of ReCap existed between them.

    Result

    Room-level clipped clouds and corridor tiles in a hosted viewer meant no one loaded 100+ GB locally. The GC pulled diffuser counts, door schedules, and millwork lengths for preconstruction directly from the browser.

    Complete Guide to Cloud Point Cloud & Panorama Hosting

    Point cloud hosting solves the most common failure mode of laser scanning projects: data that gets delivered and then never used. A registered point cloud for a commercial building typically runs 25–150 GB. Very few owners, and not many contractors, have both the software licenses and the workstation hardware to open files that size — so the most accurate record of the building ends up sitting on a drive.

    Cloud-hosted delivery changes who can use scan data. ZEALOT Reality Capture publishes registered point clouds and linked 360° panoramas to a streaming browser viewer: the geometry loads progressively, measurements and sections run in the browser, and access is a link rather than an installation. A facilities coordinator, a millwork sub, and a structural engineer can all interrogate the same ±5mm dataset the same afternoon.

    For project teams, hosting is a collaboration layer. Instead of shipping copies of a 100 GB E57 to every consultant — and losing track of which version each one has — the hosted project is the single source of truth. On our hospital renovation work, delivering room-level clipped clouds through a viewer is what let preconstruction quantity takeoffs happen directly from scan data, without a single full-dataset download.

    Hosting never replaces ownership. Every hosted project is backed by open-format master files — E57 and RCP — delivered to you outright. If you change providers, drop hosting, or archive the project, the data remains fully yours and fully usable. We consider that non-negotiable, and we recommend requiring it of any provider you use.

    Cloud point cloud and panorama hosting is available as an add-on to any ZEALOT scanning project, or as a standalone service for registered datasets you already own. If your last scan project produced files nobody opens, hosting is usually the least expensive way to turn that data back into a working asset.
