Model Uploads to Nira

You can upload your models directly to Nira, a platform capable of rendering massive 3D assets in real-time for interactive, collaborative, web-based review on any device, including smartphones and tablets. Before uploading your model to Nira from RealityCapture, you must have an existing Nira account. To create an account, please visit the Nira.app website.

Nira supports both georeferenced models and non-georeferenced models in a local coordinate system. If you prefer to export georeferenced models, the output coordinate system should be cartesian. If your preferred coordinate system is not cartesian, use the corresponding zone in the UTM projection that matches the geographic location of the model. Before attempting the upload to Nira, please set your desired coordinate system. You can set the output coordinate system by going to the WORKFLOW tab / Application / Settings / Coordinate systems.
