What is the Matterpak™ Bundle?

The MatterPak™ Bundle is a set of assets that you can download and import into third-party programs. It contains:

  • Colorized point cloud (.XYZ)
  • Reflected ceiling plan image
    • (.JPG) Multiple files if multiple floors
    • (.PDF) All floors in one file
  • High-resolution floor plan image (This is NOT the Schematic Floor Plans.) This is similar to the ceiling plan image but of the floor.
    • (.JPG) Multiple files if multiple floors
    • (.PDF) All floors in one file
  • 3D mesh file (.OBJ) including the necessary texture map image files (.JPG)

 

Who is the Matterpak™ Bundle for?

The MatterPak™ Bundle is for architects, engineers, and construction professionals who want to import these assets into 3D third-party programs* (such as 3ds Max, ReCap, Revit, or AutoCAD), perform additional work, and then offer as part of a commercial package to their clients. For example:

 

  • Architects and engineers can use the point cloud to quickly create an as-built model and jump-start their designs.
  • Construction professionals can use the ceiling plan and floor plan images for documentation/verification and building turnover packages, or use the point cloud as a part of the QA/QC process.



AEC (architecture, engineering, or construction) customers can include the Matterpak™ Bundle and the Matterport E57 file as part of your turnover package for your clients.

 

2D Snapshots
360º Photosphere
  • Download as many snapshots of 360º images from the Matterport Space as you like. Learn how.
  • A 360º photosphere is the spherical, panorama imagery that you see in 3D Showcase - a snapshot of the 360 view. Note that this is a snapshot only, not the captured 360 view as it was taken.
  • Open with a specific tool for editing and viewing 360º images, such as Pano2VR.
  • Upload to social media such as Facebook or Instagram.
Teaser Videos
  • Download an MP4 or GIF that shows a quick preview of the space.
  • Upload the teaser to social media such as Facebook and Twitter.
  • You can also create your own video walkthroughs of the space. Learn how.
Black & White Schematic Floor Plans
  • Schematic Floor Plans are a great way to see an entire space at a glance.
  • They’re great for people who want a more traditional, top-down view.
  • Order online through Matterport Cloud. Delivery within two business days.
  • Learn more about Schematic Floor Plans.
OBJ File - Matterpak™ Bundle
  • Matterport combines 3D depth data with 2D visual data to create a textured 3D mesh that is the OBJ file. We sample the OBJ file to create the Dollhouse View in 3D Showcase.
  • An OBJ file is not necessary for most users. 3D developers and VR enthusiasts can use the OBJ file to kickstart their projects with a 3D model of a real-world place.
  • Our OBJ files have a scale of 1 unit = 1 meter. You may need to update the scale in your 3D software or rescale the model after loading.
  • Could be opened in programs such as MeshLab and Maya. For importing assistance, please contact the specific 3D program's support team.
Point Clouds - Matterpak™ Bundle
  • For architecture, engineering, and construction customers. Learn more.
  • Fully automatic point cloud registration of all sweeps (scan positions).
  • Colorized based on the 360º panorama imagery and accurate to within 1% of reality.
  • Could be opened in Recap, Revit, or AutoCAD and jump-start your as-built designs. For importing assistance, please contact the specific 3D program's support team.
High-Resolution Floor Plan Image - Matterpak™ Bundle
  • For architecture, engineering, and construction customers. Learn more.
  • Get a quick top-down view of the job site and everything inside it.
  • Use in AutoCAD as a tracing element.
  • Could be opened in 3ds Max, Maya, 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.
  • For importing assistance, please contact the specific 3D program's support team.
Reflected Ceiling Plan Image - Matterpak™ Bundle
  • For architecture, engineering, and construction customers. Learn more.
  • 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.
    • For importing assistance, please contact the specific 3D program's support team.
Point Clouds - Matterport E57 File
  • For architecture, engineering, and construction customers. Learn more .
  • High-density point cloud for all scan locations in the Matterport space.
  • Approximately 20x the detail derived from a Matterpak™.
  • Vendor-neutral point cloud format that's widely adopted by most 3D design applications.
