Enterprise-Grade Scalability
More Compute Power - We’ve added more compute power and beefed-up our servers to handle large tours, for example commercial buildings, anywhere in the world.
Global Tour Servers - Ensure lighting-fast access to Metareal Tours by publishing to the Metareal Tour Server nearest to your audience from one of the many now available (US East, US West, EU North, EU West, EU Central, Middle East, APAC North East, APAC South East, South America, and Oceania).
Global Application Servers - The Metareal Stage virtual tour editing platform is now hosted in a number of global AWS data centers, ensuring fast access to the editing tools wherever you are in the world.
Very Large Projects - New tools and optimizations now make it possible to work with tours containing hundreds of panoramas.
Metareal Platform SDK
Now you can offer Metareal Virtual Tours and Floor plans as a service directly from within your own platform.
The all new Metareal Platform SDK enables developers to use the Metareal Stage application as a virtual tour production backend to their own applications.
Control and operate the entire Metareal Stage platform entirely programmatically.
Authenticate to your Metareal Stage account, create projects, upload panoramas, attach files, submit jobs, and query for the list of published tours - all from your own web or mobile application.
Tour Player Enhancements

Tour Statistics Export - Export wall, floor, object, door and window locations and dimensions to .CSV (comma separated value) files.
Tour Streaming API - Live stream a Metareal virtual tour into your own 3D application using the new Tour Streaming API (beta access).
Speed and Memory Optimizations - Vastly improved memory efficiency and loading time optimizations. Please note: I_f you want your existing tours to benefit from the speed optimizations, you will need to open the tour in the tour editor at least once, press REDO to force a save and then republish the tour.
