Make Virtual Tours Easier to Explore with Interactive Floor Plans
When users explore a virtual tour, they want more than beautiful visuals—they want to understand how the space is laid out. A Virtual Tour Floor Plan makes this simple by showing a clear, interactive layout of rooms and connections.
What Is a Virtual Tour Floor Plan?
A virtual tour floor plan is a 2D or 3D visual map of a property that shows room placement, layout, and flow. It connects directly to the virtual tour, allowing users to click on rooms and instantly jump to that location.
Think of it as a navigation guide that helps users explore spaces confidently and efficiently.
How Floor Plans Work in Virtual Tours
Floor plans are created by:
- Designing a scaled layout of the property
- Linking rooms to 360° tour scenes
- Displaying the user’s current position
- Allowing quick room-to-room navigation
Users can switch between walkthrough mode and floor plan view at any time.
