 Architecture and Engineering

Streamline design and BIM modeling processes with digital twin cloud data of site conditions.

Our platform integrates seamlessly with your existing software - from SketchUp, to Revit, AutoCAD, and other BIM software.

Construction

Build more efficiently with collaborative project review. Use BIM360 or Procore with Matterport to enable quick and easy collaboration and manage all aspects of your project in 3D.

Procore is the most used construction software in the world.

Matterport BIM file

Create BIM files from your space — it’s faster, easier, and more cost effective than ever.

Get the Matterport Advantage

Our 3D data platform is the most powerful, accurate, and quickest way to document a building or property. With a compatible camera, you can capture anything from small to large spaces — both inside and outside — with the highest level of detail.

 3D scanning that fits your workflow

Our platform automatically stitches all your data together and lets you export your data into other platforms easily, saving you significant amounts of manual work and time.Create 3D walkthroughs and guide anyone immediately to a virtual site tour.
 

  • Communicate key milestones quickly and effectively by eliminating travel time and by sharing and annotating in the model to get sign-offs.

  • Perform remote inspections, measure while offsite, and reduce site visits by capturing all data the first time.

 

How 3D scan to BIM can reduce design and construction costs

Incorporating Matterport into your BIM (Building Information Modelling) process can help reduce virtual design and construction costs and help you win more bids.
 

  • Export your point cloud and easily share and render it within Revit® and other BIM tools.

  • Generate OBJ files and point clouds for as-builts and construction documentation.

  • Scan tight areas 10–15 times faster than with a typical lidar scanner.

  • Overlay your point cloud onto your BIM model to conduct verification.

  • Take measurements in difficult to access areas such as pipes, trusses, and ceiling beams.

Building Information Modeling

Matterport BIM files enable fast, easy, precision 3D as-builts for any space. Architects, designers and building engineers can now accurately capture the current state of any building and its contents in CAD and design software more quickly, easily, and cost-effectively than ever before.

  • Jumpstart workflows by capturing as-built conditions with Matterport and ordering the BIM File add-on

  • BIM file contains a .RVT and two .DWG CAD files

  • Eliminate the manual capture of as-built conditions with Matterport + BIM

  • Output BIM includes optional comprehensive architecture, furniture, and MEP elements

  • Autodesk Revit plugin is available for quick import of MP digital twin and associated data files

  • Files include quantifiable dimensions and quantities
