BigLook360 Showcases MapPro360™ an Innovative Resource Management Solution for NV5, McMillen and the City of Seattle South Fork Tolt River Hydroelectric Project
DALLAS, TX, UNITED STATES, January 17, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- BigLook360, a leader in immersive enterprise solutions, proudly announces the successful implementation of its cutting-edge web-based application, MapPro360™, in collaboration with NV5, McMillen and City of Seattle. This project showcases the innovative potential of MapPro360 in transforming natural resource management, reducing costs, and enhancing efficiency for industry leaders.
Leveraging 360° spherical video with GPS integration, captured via helicopter over the rugged Tolt River in the Cascade Mountains, MapPro360 empowers organizations to remotely monitor, assess, and visualize resources in stunning detail—without the need for costly, time-intensive field visits, enabling critical decisions with minimal on-site presence.
The City of Seattle for instance, is already utilizing this technology for their in-stream flow
study, designed to understand the water dynamics and ecosystem of the Tolt River.
Traditional assessments of the river’s hard-to-access terrain required significant logistical
resources. Now, the City of Seattle can leverage data from MapPro360 to advance key projects and studies. MapPro360 is an especially helpful tool for collaboration with partners, which historically was not possible without a site visit.
Samantha Owen, Project Manager at McMillen, praised the technology:
"MapPro360 provides us with the ability to assess areas that are nearly impossible to
access in person. This is exactly the kind of solution we were hoping for."
NV5, a valued BigLook360 partner, has also benefited from the platform. Melissa Christie,
Senior Account Manager at NV5, shared:
"Partnering with BigLook360 and utilizing their MapPro360 platform has been a gamechanger for NV5. The innovative technology has streamlined project workflows, enhanced environmental assessments, and delivered exceptional value to our clients. The ability to remotely visualize complex data in 360° has significantly improved how we approach resource management and project planning. We are thrilled with the results and look forward to leveraging this solution for future projects."
Lance Loesberg, CEO of BigLook360, highlighted the significance of these collaborations:
"We are proud to partner with NV5, McMillen and The City of Seattle to demonstrate how
MapPro360 is reshaping the future of resource management. Our goal is to empower
organizations with tools that improve efficiency, safety, and environmental outcomes, we
are delivering meaningful innovation that benefits both industries and communities.
