Laser Scanning The Healthcare Built Environment has become more accessible, collaborative and interactive than ever before with Reality Capture scanning technology using Matterport. Matterport is a powerful 3D mapping tool that laser scans a space and then presents an extremely detailed 360-degree virtual model with data points. Essentially, Matterport creates a digital twin of the area it has just scanned that was synthesized from immersive 3D images with spatial and measurement data. This digital twin can be viewed, via a URL link, by anyone in any location, provided they have connection to Wi-Fi.

Practical Uses As Built Documentation - Existing conditions can be documented prior to the start of any project. JPT can provide the link between the unknown existing conditions and complete documentation. Building Information Modeling - Scans can be integrated with our BIM models in Revit. BIM files are able to be established based on Matterport digital twins which are also referred to as “Matterport BIM files”. These Matterport BIM files directly link Point Cloud data, turning captured dimensional information into Revit files. Facility Management and Assests - A detailed 3D model of power components, equipment, pipework and other assets are documented within laser scans.
