Video Map is a new form of map expression, which is based on video spatialization, integrates virtual and reality through computer vision technology, and carries out real-time geographic information visualization and intelligent geographic analysis.

Video Dataset can be played either in the Add to Video Map window or in the Map and Scene.

Note: If the Video Dataset needs to be superimposed with the GISSpatial Data, it needs to be registered first. See Video Registration for more information
