Trimble® has announced ProjectSight 360 Capture, a powerful new functionality that provides comprehensive visibility into site progress through native integrations with 360-degree cameras, Trimble ProjectSight® project management software and the Trimble Connect® collaboration platform. ProjectSight 360 Capture makes reality capture an integral part of project management workflows. It enables construction teams to conduct virtual jobsite walkthroughs, track progress and resolve issues collaboratively — all online and with simple user interfaces. The announcement was made during the annual Trimble Dimensions User Conference in Las Vegas. Built into ProjectSight, 360 Capture lets contractors easily record 360-degree imagery as they walk the job site. A cloud-based AI algorithm automatically processes the images, identifies key locations, and links them to project drawings to create a living, visual map of the site. Project managers can connect these images directly to workflows — such as change orders or RFIs — by embedding captures within requests. Through Trimble Connect's common data environment, all imagery
