Novasys Announces the Integration of 3D-Flights

Novasys, a leading provider of Internet and mobile mapping solutions announces the Integration of a 3D-Flight feature and its Maponair mapping platform dedicated to Portals, y/w Pages and Local Search.

The 3D-Flight videos are produced by the Swiss company Optobyte. They are now online on the leading Swiss yellow/white page portal - www.directories.ch.

From now on 45.000 videos within Switzerland can be viewed as 3D-Flights with a duration of 30 seconds each. The 3D experience is fully integrated into the Flash/Ajax-based mapping application Maponair, which is one of Novasys core-products.

After checking the "3D-Flights" checkboxplaced right of the dynamic map, the applications shows red "3D"-Points on the map. The selection of one of these spots provides a realistic impression of the surrounding area. The map immediately zooms onto the selected site and then changes the perspective from a top-view to a side-view to visualize the surrounding landscape in a 360-degree sight. The 3D-Flight contains theheight profiles of the ambient area and supports a user-experience as if the user would enter the map like in a virtual world.
