Matterport, the world leader in 3D capture technology and spatial data, today announced its integration with Autodesk BIM 360 to enable construction customers to collaborate virtually. Now, teams using BIM 360 can access and walk through Matterport digital twins of their job sites while accessing the full array of project information in their BIM 360 Project Home dashboard.

“By simply adding the Matterport Partner Card into their BIM 360 Project Home, construction teams can activate the Matterport integration to streamline documentation across workflows and collaboration between stakeholders,” said Tomer Poran, Director of Business Development, Matterport. “Our BIM 360 integration is just the beginning of our work with Autodesk’s leading construction portfolio,  Autodesk Construction Cloud.”

Autodesk Construction Cloud is a portfolio of software and services that brings together Assemble, BuildingConnected, PlanGrid and BIM 360. And with Autodesk’s established design authoring tools, it connects headquarters, office and field teams to increase collaboration and productivity. 

“No matter where construction team members are physically, they need to be able to collaborate with one another in order to keep work moving along schedule,” said James Cook, head of integrations, Autodesk Construction Solutions. “Embedding Matterport’s 3D walk-throughs into the BIM 360 Project Home dashboard provides construction team members spatial context alongside essential project data so they can seamlessly collaborate and make decisions from any location, saving time and money to keep projects on track."
