In this post, Zach Calhoon, co-founder of CloudPano.com will show you how to use a new feature that lets you add a floor plan to your 360 virtual tours on the software platform. Click play and watch this video:

So how do you add a floor plan to your virtual tour?

If you’re brand new, you must first go to CloudPano.com and click Get Started To Sign-in to take you over to the app.
If you don’t have any photos or 360 images to add to our platform yet, you can just play around with our sample tours.
To use the floor plan feature, and click on the icon at the right side that says Floor Plan. Then press the button that says Add Floor Plan.
It will take you to a screen that says Upload Floor Flan Image. Click on the Browse button to upload a 2D blueprint floor plan and then name it. You can also add more floor plans if you want to.
Click on the floor plan that you want to use and it will open up a screen that says Link A Scene.
Select the area where you want to link a scene by clicking on it. A small screen will pop-up that says Select Room to Link, where you can select the photo that you want to use.
After selecting a photo, click Save. This will create a small hotspot on that floor plan. You can add more hotspots to the other areas of the floor plan by following the same process.
Once you’re done adding all the hotspots, exit out of the screen and hit Publish to see your virtual tour. It will open up a screen that gives you a link to the virtual tour that you can give out to your clients.
On your virtual tour, you will see the floor plan icon that you can click to access the floor plan that you just created.

Using the Floor Plans feature is a new way to quickly navigate through your virtual tour. It provides your client with an elegant way to explore a home they are shopping for or looking to possibly rent. It’s just another feature that you can add to your CloudPano.com and virtual tour business repertoire.
