What is a Matterport Scan?

A Matterport scan is a 3D digital capture of a physical space, created using a special Matterport camera or compatible 360° camera. Instead of just taking flat photos, the camera scans the entire room from multiple angles and stitches the data together to build a highly accurate, interactive 3D model (often called a ‘digital twin’).

Key Points:

  • It creates a virtual walkthrough, so viewers can explore the property online as if they were physically there.
  • It uses LiDAR or infrared sensors to measure depth and dimensions, giving precise floorplans and spatial data.
  • It’s popular in real estate, architecture, construction, retail fitouts, and insurance, because it combines photography, video, and measurement in one scan.
  • From the scan, you can generate 2D floorplans, 3D models, measurements, and even VR tours.

In short, think of it as Google Street View but for the inside of a building.
