Improved information flow with Matterport 

Complete information in near real time for the entire team

The real strength of Matterport's 3D visualization platform lies in the highly automated and rapid creation of comprehensive 360° photo documentation with precise 3D scan data . 

Within a few hours of recording and uploading, users can access the information in the cloud. And thanks to optional password protection, only those users who are supposed to have access can do so. This makes the system ideal for extensive use in the areas of  architecture  , engineering and construction ( hereinafter referred to as AEC ). 

The key features and benefits for the AEC industries at a glance:

  • Complete information available online in almost real time for all project partners
  • 360 tour  with high-resolution panoramas (140 MP) and with precise 3D data  instead of individual photos and manual measurements
  • Take measurements  directly in the 360 ​​tour  ( accuracy deviation 3D file  <1%)
  • Comment  directly in the 360 ​​tour with Matterport Notes
  • Collaborate - Send messages and share documents within the project team with Matterport Notes 
  • Share exact positions via link  (with zoom and orientation) using the Share option 
  • Perfect milestone documentation of all trades  
  • Matterport 360 Tour in Autodesk BIM 360  and access (available as partner map)
  •  Retrieve Matterpak  3D scan data in Autodesk Revit 
  • Always up-to-date in the Matterport Cloud -  optionally with password protection

Try it yourself - use the small ruler at the bottom left to activate the measurement mode and press the "U" key on your keyboard to get a deep link to share the position:


All information available online  - always perfectly organized, technically up-to-date and fully documented

Many customers would like to have the Matterport 3D tour available offline or to download it permanently from the Matterport server. This wish is understandable given the hosting fees involved, but it still doesn't make sense. 

Basically, it should be mentioned here that a Matterport 3D tour is an online service that provides your tour when you call it up. Like so many other online services.

Accordingly, this service cannot be downloaded easily or it would be associated with restrictions and technical problems. Just compare it to downloading a website. Of course it is possible, but usually after a very short time some technical details no longer work, or images are missing or the buttons no longer provide any feedback.

The online hosting of the Matterport 3D Tour in the Matterport Cloud guarantees all project partners that the tours will be technically up-to-date and accessible for many years to come and that all documentation is organized and complete (360° tour, photos, 3D data, etc. etc.) - regardless of the project team.
In the following video you can learn more about Matterport for the AEC industry. But one thing should be said: Using the system is not as easy as it appears in the video.

 


By accessing a digital twin of your construction site, you can reach new levels of efficiency, collaboration and communication and save costs.  

Just a few hours after the scan, the 3D tour scan images are available online and accessible to all team members. This increases transparency and reduces the number of visits required and the time required on site. All team members can make faster and better decisions.

Matterport Notes helps project teams work together better. You can leave notes internally in the tour and send them to project members via email with just one click. The notes also function as a task list and communication tool . Project members can reply to the note , send their own files and mark it as completed as soon as the note has been processed. A great tool for fewer post-its and, above all, for a faster flow of information and fewer costly errors in the project. 

 

Measurements can be taken in the browser at any point on the 3D tour.  And with the 3D data from the Matterpak, a precise comparison of the actual state with the 3D planning data is possible at any time. With BLK360 scan data with deviations in the range of < 0.1%. The risk of unnecessary errors and expensive rework can thus be significantly reduced.

With the Matterport 3D tour scans of the construction site, all trades and milestones are perfectly documented and made available for long-term access - also for property management over the entire life cycle of the property.  This reduces costs and increases returns - on the construction site and over the entire service life of the property.

Matterport Scan2BIM - a small investment with big benefits that will pay off for everyone involved.
