Scan a Space

Prepare the location
Close doors to areas you
won’t scan and open doors
between rooms you will
scan.
Scan your rst model Take camera to a starting point, like the foyer. Tap “Capture 3D Scan” on
the iPad. Stand out of sight as your camera will turn 360 degrees to scan.
Move camera 5-8 ft (1.5-2.5 m), keeping a clear line of sight to the previous
scan. Tap “Capture 3D Scan”. The app must align (match) images from this
new scan to previous scans. You can see a rough preview on the iPad.
Continue to a new point 5-8 ft (1.5-2.5 m) away. Follow a path a visitor
would take. Mark windows and mirrors immediately after each scan to
improve alignment.
When moving between doors, scan on either side of the open door. Do
not move the door between scans.
Continue along your path to explore and scan the rest of the site. Take at
least two scans per room.
In narrow spaces, scan along a straight line. It’s best to keep at least 1.5 ft
(0.5 m) from walls and doors. Scan near objects of interest, like appliances.
Switch to 360° Views to capture outdoor scenes with lots of bright sunlight.
Scan outdoors last.
The light blue circles indicate additional scan locations behind furniture,
inside closets, etc. to complete the model.

Review and Upload

Almost done!
1. When you are done scanning, turn o the camera and connect your iPad to the internet.
2. Log in to your Matterport Cloud account from the Matterport Capture app. If you haven’t registered an account, check your
welcome email for instructions.
3. Check the model before you upload: mark all windows and mirrors if you haven’t already. Use the trim tool to crop out any
excess “spray” (scan data) for a clean nish. Don’t place the trim markers directly on top of a wall. Instead, place the trim
marker just outside the exterior wall so you don’t cut the wall out of the model.
4. Tap “Upload” to send the model to Matterport for processing.
What’s next?
We will build your scans into a 3D Space and email you in a few hours when it is ready. You can view your
3D Spaces on my.matterport.com.
Questions? Handle with care
