How and because:

viewAt.org was born with the idea of creating a virtual space where anybody can upload their photographic works in panoramic format and relate them to the place where they were taken.

For that reason, and with the aid of technological developments that have made it possible to set up this visual manager, we aim to take web surfers to almost real spaces. Unlike traditional photography, the panoramic image creates a wrap-around sensation which we have tried to exploit to the full, thanks mainly to Shockwave Flash player, which allows us to include multimedia elements on the webpage and to fantastic developments such as Flash Panoramas and Google Maps.

The rapid advance of Internet related technologies allows the use of more and more sophisticated tools. While this provides many advantages, it also means that surfers are put off by the sheer speed of these changes. This is why we are so excited at having set up viewAt.org, because we think we can avail this technology to all those who are interested in showing their panoramic works in a spectacular way and at the same time, reach a maximum number of netheads.

Up to now, most sites that show panoramic images have done so using the fantastic Quicktime player. This would be perfect were it not for the fact that many netsurfers do not have this player installed.

Besides, Denis V. Chumakov, the creator of the marvellous tool we use at viewAt.org to show panoramic views, FlashPanoramas, is doing magnificent work with this player and in our opinion is of superior quality to any other similar development currently available.

Simple to do:

With viewAt.org we have tried to achieve an aid to simplify, insofar as it is possible, the complexity of these new technologies for Internet.

By means of a simple administrative system based on well-tried formulae, creating panoramas using viewAt.org is just ag clic away.
