description=Use 360/equirectangular street-view images to visualize field context and update 2D GIS layer information.
about=Mapupdate360 helps QGIS users create photo point layers from geotagged 360 images, visualize local equirectangular imagery, navigate image sequences, view live map direction/frustum, enhance image display, apply panorama heading/orientation metadata, correct GPS-based camera mount offset, and create privacy-safe copies with camera-bottom blur/cover masking. This plugin is derived from the original Equirectangular Viewer plugin by Francisco Raga / All4GIS, with substantial enhancements by Pankaj Singh Kalam for 360-image-based 2D GIS map updating workflows.

changelog=1.2: Reworked GPano/XMP metadata reading to avoid XML parsing of untrusted image metadata while keeping panorama heading support, and removed the development shell script from the upload package to satisfy QGIS suspicious file security checks. 1.1: Added GPano/XMP panorama orientation support, yaw source audit fields, and optional camera mount offset correction for GPSImgDirection/GPSTrack-based heading; missing heading values now default to 0 with a notice. 1.0: Released as Mapupdate360; added photo point creation, flexible layer detection, live frustum/FOV update, image enhancement controls, and camera-bottom privacy masking tools. Credits retained for the original Equirectangular Viewer by Francisco Raga / All4GIS.
