LineVision Esri ArcMap Add-In
Our LineVision Esri ArcMap is an “add-in” or extension for Esri’s industry-leading, GIS desktop application. LineVision Esri ArcMap Add-in gives GIS professionals an easy way to map, analyze and package geo-referenced video, photos, notes and files in a familiar and traditional Esri mapping environment.
The LineVision Esri ArcMap Add-in supports what is referred to as geotagged or geospatial video, meaning digital video files with associated GPS companion or sidecar files. Geospatial video is currently the most common method used by GPS-enabled cameras and DVR systems, from simple action cameras to consumer and commercial drones, to purpose-built airborne and vehicle video systems like our own geoDVR. It’s also important to note that geospatial video usually differs in geotagging methods and data structure than the MISB Full Motion Video (FMV) standard specifically utilized by Esri’s ArcGIS Full Motion Video (FMV) add-in, which is why customers will often use both, depending on which video data type they are working with at the time.
(You will need to have the ArcMap software installed to use the LineVision Esri ArcMap add-in. If you are not an ArcMap user, please consider our stand-alone LineVision Desktop application which is designed for non-GIS users who want to leverage Esri data and maps.)

To load a single geotagged video to LineVision go to File > Open Video then navigate to Windows folder where you downloaded the geotagged video AND GPS “companion” or “sidecar” files. This should load up the video and play with the clickable GPS track on the map.
Check out this short tutorial:The LineVision Esri ArcMap Add-in does not currently support video with MISB-compliant metadata, however our stand-alone LineVision Desktop and Video GeoTagger PRO does support MISB Full Motion Video files.
Remote GeoSystems LineVision Esri ArcMap Add-in is designed to let you analyze and manage georeferenced video with “companion” GPS data files in ArcMap. This differs from Esri’s FMV Add-in, which supports the MISB FMV standard. However you can install and use both the LineVision Esri ArcMap Add-in and Esri’s FMV Add-in in ArcMap.
