Matterport 3D Capture Training Course

We understand that with this new technology come new opportunities and challenges and we are here to help you come to grips with them.

Our Matterport training course has been created for professionals who want to start with or improve their 3D model creation with Matterport technology and their Pro2 3D and Pro3 LiDAR cameras.

• Learn how to use Matterport Capture technology to create immersive 3D models of any space.
• Gain an understanding of uses and benefits of 2D floor plans, TruePack and MatterPak data sets.
• Create and optimise virtual walkthroughs with Mattertags, labels and runway navigations.

Who is this course for?

All those who intend harnessing Matterport technology to simplify their workflow, create 3D and VR content, and acquire data sets for use in their architectural, engineering, and construction projects.

Those involved in architecture, engineering, renovation, interior design, restoration, and loss assessment who intend using the technology to simplify, improve the accuracy of, and speed up project measurement and to download the MatterPak, 2D Floor Plans, Matterport BIM, and TruePlan assets for use in Revit, Recap, AutoCAD, Xactimate, and other programmes.

Practitioners using tours for digital documentation, industrial and facilities management, verifying project progress, risk and change management, remote inspection, remote bidding, and other building, design, and operating purposes.

Photographers, designers, and agencies creating 3D virtual tours and virtual reality (VR) for consumer and B2B purposes including sales, marketing, asset management, staff onboarding, sales & marketing training.
