360 Photo SPHERE
Virtual tours are created using a special image / photo known as Spherical (globe)
MAKE THEM FREE
NOT FREE: dedicated camera (from $200 to $10,000) or a normal camera with stitching software (high end)
VIRTUAL TOURS & GOOGLE MAPS
images are then loaded into sites / platforms (see below)
then using the features of each platform you can connect the photos as well as other options such as embed videos, links to other sites
best viewed with smartphone and rotate to any angle, the ultimate experience is using VR (Virtual reality) googles
SOCIAL MEDIA
some platforms recognise the format
PLATFORMS
3rd party sites and google maps have gains and pains (noted below)
