The basics of Nextspace

Entity Type

Describe what your 'things' are and what properties they should have using Entity Types. The description of the properties is called the "Data Schema".

Entity

Make a record of whatever Entity Types you've defined. This can be anything from a Building, Person or Work Order. After creation, you can associate documents, media, external links and more with these records.

Nextspace applications let you view and edit your data in 2D, 3D, tabular form, and charts as a few examples. Create your own applications or custom-code Plugins using the Nextspace API, libraries, embedded widgets to fit your needs.

Project Views and Bookmarks

Create a Project View to manage what data you want to work with, Menu Items provide a switchboard-like interface to turn things on and off. Use Bookmarks to create snapshots of your scenes so you can annotated and share them.

The legacy terminology for Bookmarks is Slides. You will notice this when working our API and libraries.

Tilesets

Optimize loading performance of large sets of data through Tilesets. They bundle data based on their geospacial positions and detail to efficiently stream what's needed based on the viewport.
