You can access the OxBlue Interface from your web browser or the mobile app. If you have multiple cameras, images of all your construction sites are displayed in a grid. If you have a single camera, your camera will be automatically displayed.
Note: Depending on how many cameras you have or what features you have enabled, your dashboard may look different from the screenshots shown.
View Multiple Sites
You can display the images in a list or on a map by choosing the appropriate option in the upper left corner of the Dashboard (View List or Map).
You can display only some of the sites by using the Filter or Search options.
The cameras photograph the site at regular intervals, so you can:
- Get a closer view by adjusting the browser to its full size, or pan and zoom into the image.
- Scroll forward or backward through the camera’s images, either by date or through each individual image.
- Compare two images of the site taken at different times.
- Download an image and mark it up, share it with a colleague by email or social media and attach a comment.
- Create a time-lapse video of the site over a period of time, download it, or send it to a colleague with comments.
Note: To view multiple projects, you must have multiple OxBlue cameras.
