Swyvl: Transforming Remote Site Management with Immersive Spatial Data Solutions

Revolutionising the Energy and Resources Sector with 3D Digital Visualisation

Managing remote and expansive sites has long been a challenge for the energy resources sector, particularly in industries such as mining, renewable energy, and large-scale infrastructure. Frequent site visits come with high costs, logistical constraints, and safety risks, while outdated or inaccessible data can lead to inefficiencies and delays in decision-making.

Enter Swyvl, an innovative platform developed by Lateral Vision that is reshaping how industries capture, manage, and utilise spatial data. Through a combination of 360-degree imagery, 3D mapping, and geospatial data integration, Swyvl enables companies to create virtual site environments that are accessible from anywhere. By reducing the reliance on physical site visits, Swyvl cuts operational costs, minimises carbon emissions, and enhances workplace safety—all while improving data accessibility and collaboration.

A Smarter Approach to Site Management

Swyvl bridges the gap between physical sites and digital environments, providing energy and resources companies with a smarter way to manage remote operations. The platform’s key benefits include:

  • Reduced Operational Costs: Minimise expensive and time-consuming site visits.

  • Enhanced Decision-Making: Access real-time, up-to-date site information for faster, more informed decisions.

  • Improved Safety: Reduce the need for personnel to travel to hazardous or remote locations.

  • Seamless Collaboration: Break down data silos by integrating multiple data sources into a unified digital workspace.

By making spatial data more accessible and actionable, Swyvl supports the energy sector’s broader shift towards digital transformation and sustainability.
