ConnexionMatterport BIM files, Now Available Upon Request
Scan the space, request the BIM file, and access it within your Autodesk® seat. With the Matterport BIM file add-on and the Revit® Plugin, it’s that simple.
Matterport is revolutionizing the built world. From powering users with the ability to natively capture complex as-built conditions, to providing valuable insights at each stage of your project, our photorealistic, dimensionally accurate digital twins expedite your BIM workflow.
Our newest Add-On, Matterport BIM file, brings Matterport generated point cloud data into the Autodesk Revit platform by transforming spatial data into .RVT files and .DWG CAD files. This Add-On empowers you with an alternative to tedious manual documentation of as-built conditions, file conversions and tracing; saving time, resources and sanity when you need BIM files to complete and manage your projects.
Arup, a global powerhouse in architecture and design, started using Matterport digital twins for the firm’s work in 2015 and is one of the first to adopt Matterport BIM Files and use the Autodesk Revit Plugin.
With the fast ordering convenience of Matterport BIM Files, we can simplify our collective initial kickoff steps, from early engagement of internal team members to streamlined briefings for stakeholders. These benefits enable us to provide more responsive client service,” says Michael Alder, Regional Reality Capture Leader at Arup. “The service fits the bill. It’s worth the cost and delivers good value, particularly for giving us a jump start with spatial planning and early design development conceptual models. They provide us an architectural frame to begin layering our services upon, in advance of the architectural model, giving us an advantage as an engineering consultancy.”
