Hi everyone! I’m having trouble uploading 360° photos to Mapillary. I captured the footage using a **Pilot One** camera, extracted the **GPX** data from an external GPS, and generated frames using **VID2JPG**. However, after uploading to Mapillary, the images are being processed as flat photos instead of 360°. Does anyone know how to ensure that Mapillary correctly recognizes the images as 360°? Is there a specific setting or metadata I need to adjust before uploading? Thanks in advance for any help! 🚀 ---

Are you referring to the Labpano Pilot One 8K 360 camera? ---

yes - Let me show you a image > **[Mapillary](https://www.mapillary.com/app/user/jaderbavaresco?lat=-21.633049299999996&lng=-53.56865189999996&z=17&pKey=1825662211560037)** > > Street-level imagery, powered by collaboration and computer vision. ---

@jaderbavaresco - I’m not sure you need to be doing any conversion or generating frames. If you update the video file directly in desktop uploader or mapillary\_tools what does it look like? ---

@jaderbavaresco In Italy we have the All time leader that usually uploads in 360: [Mapillary](https://www.mapillary.com/app/?pKey=988906239790484) I’m not sure but I think he uses the GoPro Max. ---

> [@jaderbavaresco](#): > > Does anyone know how to ensure that Mapillary correctly recognizes the images as 360°? The minimum requirement for 360° imagery on Mapillary is that it has to have an aspect ratio of 2:1. Your example imagery has a resolution of 1,920×1,080, which equates to an aspect ratio of 16:9. Identify the aspect ratio and resolution of your video. Make sure VID2JPG outputs JPEGs in the correct aspect ratio. > [@jaderbavaresco](#): > > Is there a specific setting or metadata I need to adjust before uploading? There is no _automagic_ setting. Ideally, 360° imagery should comply with the [GPano](https://developers.google.com/streetview/spherical-metadata) metadata specification. Among other things, this spec requires 360° imagery to come in 2:1 aspect ratio. Like @boris has suggested, try uploading the video directly via the Desktop Uploader or `mapillary_tools`. ---

Right, but my files are over 50 GB each, going up to more than 150 GB. How can I handle this case? Sending them directly to me became complicated — that’s why I’m extracting the 360 images using the **Vid2JPG** app. Any recommendations? I really need to upload these files for engineering purposes. ---

How can I handle this case? Well, you are going to need enough local storage space. That’s for sure. What do `mapillary_tools` or the Desktop Uploader return?
