Achitecture, Engineering and Construction
MATTERPORT: THE ALL-IN-ONE SOLUTION
Architects, Engineers and Construction Managers have traditionally used sketches and manual measurements to produce plans for clients.
In addition, standard manual 2D photos are used for design projects. However, it requires an incredible number of photos and hours to be completed, organized and reviewed and critical information can be missed.
Now, there is an ALL-IN-ONE SOLUTION.
ICU360.BIZ is pleased to offer 3D Matterport property scanning which provides in-depth data to merge with traditional measurements and produce a much better product for clients in a streamlined process.
3D Matterport scans allow Engineers, Architects and Construction Managers to increase revenues and institute more effective workflows.
ICU360.BIZ will scan your job site once to yield:
3D SHOWCASE
- Engineers, BIM managers, VDCs, and architects can inspect the site remotely with a virtual tour.
- The virtual tour is a collection of 360º images deeply connected to the 3D model of the space.
- Each 360º image is automatically placed in the correct location — no post-processing necessary.
- Collaborators can use Matterport to create a visual punchlist of tasks that need to be completed.
- Scan the same job site at different phases to show progress over time (construction documentation).
- Explore in Virtual Reality with Matterport VR.

3D MEASUREMENTS
- Take simple measurements (dimensions) in metric or imperial units.
- Measure remotely —no need for a return site visit just to measure.
- Measure dimensions of objects, rooms, or even the entire job site.
- Measurements are accurate to within 1% of reality.
- Workshop measurements are made on the 3D mesh. You can also download the point cloud and measure in ReCap.
2D PHOTOGRAPHY
- Take simple flat 2D photography from your Matterport Space.
- Take as many as you like and use them for both print and digital formats
- Download your 2D photos as simple JPG files.
- Use for simple team communication or include in the turnover package for your clients.
360 PHOTOSPHERES
- Download as many 360º photospheres from the Matterport Space as you like.
- A 360º photosphere is the same spherical, panorama imagery that you see in 3D Showcase.
- Open with a specific tool for editing and viewing 360º images, such as PANO2VR.
COLORIZED POINT CLOUDS
- Open in AutoCAD, ReCap, or Revit and jump-start your as-built designs.
- Fully automatic point cloud registration of all sweeps (scan positions).
- Colorized based on the 360º panorama imagery and accurate to within 1% of rea
HIGH RESOLUTION FLOOR PLAN IMAGE
- Get a quick top-down view of the job site and everything inside it.
- Use in AutoCAD as a tracing element or open in Maya, 3ds Max, or other 3D software.
- The floor plan is just a unique, orthogonal view of the 3D mesh. Make your own views/slices of the 3D mesh by manipulating the OBJ file yourself.
REFLECTED CEILING PLAN IMAGE
- Same as the high-resolution floor plans, but a quick vertical view of everything on the ceiling.
- See ventilation shafts, wiring, plumbing, insulation, and more.
OBJ FILE
- Matterport combines 3D depth data with 2D visual data to create a textured 3D mesh that is the OBJ file.
- The OBJ file is the 3D depth date with 2D visual data. It can be used to kickstart 3D models of a real-world place
- To open the file, it is recommended to use Maya, 3D Studio Max, or Meshlab. For Maya, the file may need to be converted into an FBX file. If you prefer Sketchup, you will need a plug-in to import OBJ objects.
- The OBJ files have a scale of 1 unit = 1 meter. You may need to update the scale in your 3D software to rescale the model after loading.
