I am wondering if it would be possible to use an Insta360 to capture the spherical photos of a room? I know it does connect to phones and can use its GPS values. Would this with ArcIndoors? I know the imagery has to be oriented, but am not sure what is needed to do so.

 

 

Thank you!

Here’s a 360° Photo Experience Builder widget that uses a photos-to-points approach:

We use several Insta360 cameras for both indoor and outdoor projects. The photos are easy to integrate into ArcGIS Enterprise or Online, and the tool is intuitive—even for users without a GIS background.

I haven't done it myself yet, but that's a pretty popular 360 camera. I don't see why it wouldn't work (I would hope it works). As for how to do it, check these out:
