| "When initially searching for places, consumer use mapping products 44 percent of the times." "On average, 41 percent of these place search result in an on-site visit." "18 percent search and end-up" using a mobile mapping product. What about the 4 out of 5 times that they are not ending up someplace that they searched for. Photos give us that great sense of confidence. How much do 360º versus photos versus no photos matter? Google tested. Listing with photos and a virtual tour are twice as likely to generate interest.

| In relation to this, we registered to become a Google Trusted photographer but they said they weren't admitting anyone at this time. Let me know if he addresses this and why. |

| Shoot 1-3 meters spacing and Google will automatically link. You can manually link or let Google link. (Depending on your perspective, this is amazing. This is empowering anyone, anywhere with a 360 spherical camera to publish to Google and have them automatically link.) Auto-connectivity or Manual connectivity. Denser photos enable auto-connecting. Get familiar with Google Street View and Mobile. Goal: not use a desktop editor "Denser photos enable next-gen ..." |

Quote:Originally Posted by DanSmigrod Thanks for the info, Dan! Will all four work with their Google Trusted Photographer program? I thought originally it was just the NCTech Iris 360 and it seems to be the highest end of the four cameras. I ordered one to complement my Matterport camera because I haven't been able to convince business owners to get Matterport scans but they were much more willing to pay for getting scans of their businesses on Google. |

Quote:Originally Posted by immersiveprop I'm not. I signed up for it, but haven't been able to get it to work with my Sony a6000, so I ponied up for the NCTech. I think I have 150 days from when I signed up to get my photos uploaded and approved. No idea if they grant extensions. |
