If you work in real estate, construction, property management, insurance claims, architecture, or restoration, you’ve likely needed accurate measurements — and needed them fast. Traditional measuring workflows involve tape measures, laser tools, and time spent onsite. Discover how easy it is to generate accurate floor and wall takeoffs with CloudPano’s built-in 360° measuring tool.
But today, with modern 360° documentation tools like CloudPano, you can measure floors, walls, and interior dimensions directly inside a virtual tour. It saves time, reduces onsite visits, and improves accuracy for reports, estimates, and project planning. With a real estate video app, agents can quickly produce professional listing videos that attract more buyers.
In this walkthrough, you’ll learn step-by-step how CloudPano’s built-in Measuring Tool helps you measure floor areas, wall lengths, room quantities, and more — all inside a 360° environment.
