Access Viewer projects

To access a Viewer project:

1. On a supported web browser, go to connect.aveva.com. When on this page, select the Sign in button.

   

2. Enter your email address in the Email box.

   If Single Sign On (SSO) is enabled, after entering your email address the Password field will disappear as your password will be obtained from the SSO Server. Select the Sign In button to proceed.

3. If SSO is not enabled, enter your password and select the Sign In button to proceed.

   

   A list of accounts that you are authorised to access will be displayed. Simply select the desired account to enter it.

4. Select Accept on the terms and conditions window that is displayed.

5. When inside the desired account, select the desired Digital Asset from the Home page.

6. Select AVEVA Point Cloud Manager - Viewer to launch the Viewer project linked to the selected Digital Asset. You will automatically be logged into the project using the credentials provided when you logged into CONNECT.

Google maps landing page

If the project being accessed has a Google Maps landing page:

7. Select AVEVA Point Cloud Manager -Viewer - Maps on the Asset when logged into the CONNECT account.

   

   On accessing the landing page, an instance of Google Maps is displayed with project markers, showing the location of each project on the landing page. The projects are also displayed in a tile-based view, enabling you to open each project either in Admin or Viewer.

   

8. To locate each dataset, either manually zoom in to one of the dataset markers or select the relevant project and dataset in the sidebar.

   On zooming into a dataset, each individual scan position within that project is displayed on the map. The scan markers are coloured based on the elevation of that scan. A key is provided at the bottom right of the page to show which colour relates to which elevation.

   

Selecting a project/dataset/scan marker brings up a dialog that displays the details of that project/dataset/scan. Select the Open button to load the associated Viewer project. You will then be automatically logged into the project using the credentials provided when you logged into CONNECT.

Viewer supports Google Maps functionality, the licence terms of which prohibit use in certain areas - including China (a full list can be found at: https://enterprise.google.com/maps/terms/maps-prohibited-territory.html). Use of the release in these areas is therefore also prohibited without further review by AVEVA legal and development teams – please contact https://softwaresupportsp.aveva.com/ for further details.
