Case Study: Keele University creates virtual campus visits with ThingLink

Keele University creates virtual campus visits in 2020 with ThingLink

Keele University, a public research university in England, needed to enable both current and prospective students to visit its campus virtually for education transitions and course delivery in 2020. The challenge was to recreate an informative and engaging in-person campus tour experience online without geographical limitations.

Using ThingLink, Technician Luke Hobson created an interactive campus map for the School of Geography, Geology and the Environment. The solution incorporated an aerial photo of the campus connected to multiple points of information, 360-degree videos from different campus areas, and audio introductions for a personal touch. ThingLink enabled the university to provide a comprehensive virtual experience that enhanced its admissions process and reached a wider audience of prospective students.
