We've been busy! Here's a roundup of everything new in Vismo this spring — from a brand new project dashboard to measurement tools, integrations, and a whole lot of quality-of-life improvements. Refresh the site to get all the latest updates.

📊 Project Dashboard

Your projects now have a visual dashboard! See project details, location map, recent files, and key stats all in one place. The dashboard is the new default landing page when you open a project. Your project's uploaded image now displays as a full-width hero banner — giving every project a polished, professional landing page the moment you open it.

📁 File Manager

The file manager has been completely revamped — cleaner layout, drag-and-drop organisation and an image carousel. Double-click any file to open it in the viewer. Upload PDFs, DWGs, photos, and more, then organise them into folders without ever downloading and re-uploading. You can also preview text-based files (TXT, JSON, EML) directly in the browser — no download needed.

📍 What3Words Integration

Every project location now shows its what3words address — a simple 3-word reference to a precise 3m x 3m square. Find it on the project dashboard, files page, map view, and project settings. Click any w3w address to open it directly on the what3words map. You can even search by w3w address in the location picker.

🌐 Panorama Viewer Updates

Our 360° panorama viewer just got a lot easier to navigate. A new mini-map shows all image points, as well as position and orientation while walking through captures, and improved navigation makes moving between viewpoints smoother than ever.

📐 Measurement Tools

Measure anything on your PDF/DWGs — distances, areas, angles, and radii — with our new measurement toolkit. Set the scale once using a known reference, and all measurements stay accurate. Your measurements persist across sessions so you and your team always have them. Double-click any PDF in your file manager to open it in the viewer.

🎬 Presentations - Coming Very Soon

Create and share beautiful presentations directly from your project content. Add titles, text, buttons, and links to build interactive slides, then share a link with clients or colleagues. No PowerPoint needed — everything stays in Vismo. Presentation boards also appear as cards on your project dashboard so you can access them at a glance.

🔀 Project Transfer

Hand projects between organisations with full control. Admins pick from a dropdown of eligible recipients, then choose whether to keep a copy, remove the sender, or archive the original after transfer. A confirmation dialog with severity-aware warnings prevents accidental transfers, and both the transferred and retained projects show provenance banners so everyone knows the history.

🔢 Org-Specific Project Numbering

Shared projects can now carry a different name and number in every organisation. When you're first invited to a project, a quick onboarding dialog lets you set your org's alias. Owner-admins can manage all aliases from a dedicated settings panel.

✏️ Project Boundaries

Draw multiple named boundaries on any project — each one colour-coded and manageable from a dedicated sidebar. Add, rename, redraw, or delete boundaries as your project evolves. Map pins are automatically grouped by which boundary they fall inside, so it's easy to see what's where.

🔍 Project Content Filters

Finding the right project just got easier. Project list views now show small indicator chips (boards, presentations, inspections, monitoring, location) and support filtering by content type, role, and status — so you can quickly find, for example, all projects with presentation boards or active monitoring.

🛰️ Map Style Toggle

Switch between street map and satellite imagery with one click. The new map style toggle is available everywhere you see a map — project location, organisation view, and boundary editor.

↔️ Collapsible Sidebar

Need more screen space? The sidebar now collapses with a single click, giving you a full-width view for drawings, maps, and presentations. Click again to bring it back.

🎥 Coming Soon: Feature Overview Video

We'll be uploading a brief feature walkthrough on our YouTube channel — subscribe at https://www.youtube.com/@vismo-labs so you don't miss it.

You can now give your projects a real-world location and drop pins inside them, putting every site on the map and every detail in its place.

✅ What's included:

• Switch to the Map view under My Projects to see your entire portfolio at a glance - no more hunting through lists to find the project you need. Try it out: set a location and image on your existing projects via the project settings. Note: this is separate to the address, use the map to select a real world location.
• Drop pins inside the project map to mark points of interest, attach photos, CAD files, point clouds or PDFs, and link straight to a board. Try it out: open any project with a location set and click on Map in the sidebar.
• Overlay a PDF page-by-page onto the map using a quick two-point alignment. Try it out: from the Files menu, click the three dots on a PDF and choose 'Extract map pins from pages'. Tip: use the search bar on the real-world map to find the appropriate location.

Maps give your projects a sense of place, and pins turn that map into the index for everything else in Vismo.

Sharing geospatial and survey data just got a whole lot easier. You can now share boards, data, and entire projects using public links - no login required. Just copy the link and send it on.

🚀 Why this matters:

• Share insights instantly with clients, stakeholders, or the public
• Remove friction - no accounts, no access requests
• Perfect for reviews, updates, and quick approvals

Whatever you're showcasing, public links make sharing fast, simple, and accessible. One link. Zero hassle.

You asked for more point cloud support - so here it is. Alongside LAS and LAZ, you can now upload and view E57 files directly in Vismo.

No desktop tools. No installs. Just open your data in the browser and get to work.

🔍 Why this matters

• Many scanners export to E57 by default, so no converting or reprocessing
• Bring point clouds, drawings, imagery and models into one environment
• Review as-built conditions or site capture data remotely
• Comment, share and collaborate instantly

One platform. All your spatial data.

You can now bring panoramic images directly into Vismo, making it easier than ever to share an immersive view of your projects.

📍 Why it matters:

• Give your team and clients a realistic 360° view of the site - beyond drawings or reports

• Provide richer context for Measured Building Surveys or construction progress - any project where visual detail is key

• Create an immersive walkthrough to share with stakeholders without extra software

✅ What’s included:

• Works seamlessly in Vismo’s existing viewer

• Supports comments and markups right on the 360° view

• Coming soon: measurement tools + multi-image navigation for virtual walkthroughs

Panoramic imagery helps you tell the story of your project more clearly, all in the same platform as the rest of your project data. 🚀

We’re making it easier to stay in the loop with your extended team. Project Activity now surfaces what’s happening across your project, so you always know what’s going on.

👀 What you can see:

• Who’s joined the project

• Comments added to CAD files

• Key actions and updates from your team

And this is just the start, more events are coming soon, so watch this space!

Collaboration works best when everyone’s on the same page, and now it’s easier than ever to stay connected.

Finding your files just got easier! With Project Search, you can now quickly locate any file across your project - no more digging through folders.

⚡ What’s new?

• Lightning-fast results across your entire project

• Partial match search makes finding files easier, even if you don’t know the exact name

Your project data is at your fingertips. Fast, simple, and stress-free. 🚀

🤝 Share insights with your team, clients, or contractors

💬 Comment and collaborate—all in one place

Whether it’s survey data, drone imagery, or design files, Vismo brings it all together - so you can make smarter decisions, faster.

We’re not just adding support for IFC files - we’re making BIM truly usable for the whole team.

With Vismo, you can now upload, view, and interact with BIM models in the open IFC format - no specialist software required. That means less friction and more visibility, from design through to handover.

🛠️ What you can do in Vismo:

• Inspect IFC models in-browser

• Comment, mention, and collaborate in context

• Keep your project data in one accessible platform, without losing the structure and detail that make BIM so powerful

💡 Why this matters:

• Designers and consultants can share rich, structured models easily

• Contractors and subcontractors access the data they need, on-site

• Asset owners and facilities teams retain valuable info for the long term

IFC support in Vismo means better decisions, faster feedback, and collaboration without compromise. This is BIM - simplified. 🎉

One of Vismo’s missions is to make complex spatial data accessible to everyone - whether it's 2D plans, 3D models, BIM, or laser scans.

We want decision-makers to have the insights they need, and for anyone involved in a project to collaborate in context, without needing specialist software.

With just a couple of clicks, you can now rotate, scale, and transform any model in Vismo.

It’s an update that makes a big difference giving you full control to position models where and how you need them. 🏢
