Are you wondering how to:✓ How many days did it take to create a Matterport digital twin of the 400,000 SQ FT Kobe Convention Center?✓ What was the pricing strategy for such a super-large space?✓ In addition to Matterport, what other platforms, cameras and software were used for the Kobe Convention Center?Stay tuned!On WGAN-TV Live at 5 at 5 pm ET on Wednesday, 18 December 2024, our guest is:✓ Meidansha Inc. President Daniel BrownOur topic is:✓ How to Create a Matterport Digital Twin of a 400,000 SQ FT Convention CenterDaniel will guide us through the complexities of documenting the Kobe Convention Center — a project that involved four large buildings, requiring unique problem-solving, multiple technologies, and strategic planning. He’ll demonstrate a deeper dive into the tour (than our previous WGAN-TV Live at 5 show), and share insights on the challenges and solutions involved in creating such a large-scale digital twin.Kobe Convention Center Tours by Meidansha Inc.

Kobe International Exhibition Hall 2 | Includes Scans from a Leica BLK360 G1https://3d.walkthroughs.online/show/?m=V1Tz56PTinoSome of the questions I will ask Daniel:1. Project Origin: How did this project come about?✓ How did you connect with the tourism board for this project?✓ Did they approach you or did you reach out to them?✓ How did you first understand the scale and scope of the project?2. Quoting and Pricing: How did you approach pricing for such a large project?✓ What was your pricing strategy for a project of this scale?✓ Did you charge a fixed fee, bill by the day, charge by the SQ FT?✓ How did you estimate the number of days or resources required for the project?3. Understanding the Client's Needs: What were the use cases for the digital twin?✓ How did the tourism board plan to use the digital twin of the Kobe Convention Center?✓ Was the goal primarily marketing, or were there operational uses as well?✓ Were there specific features they wanted to highlight in the tour?4. Tools and Technology: What software and hardware were used to create the digital twin?✓ Which cameras did you use? (e.g., Matterport Pro2, Leica BLK360, DSLR, 360 camera)✓ What software platforms did you use?✓ How did you decide which tools were best for the project’s requirements?5. Problem Solving: What challenges did you encounter with such a large space?✓ What were the unique challenges with scanning a 400,000 square foot space?✓ How did you manage large open spaces that may not have many visual reference points?✓ Were there any lighting challenges in different parts of the convention center?✓ How did you overcome GPS or connectivity issues while scanning?6. Workflow and Execution: How did you organize the workflow for this large-scale project?✓ How many scanning days did this project require?✓ How did you ensure continuity when scanning different sections of the building over time?✓ What was your approach for balancing speed and quality in such a large project?7. Managing Multiple Technologies: How did you integrate various tools and platforms?✓ How did you manage the use of multiple platforms (Matterport, 3DVista, MPEmbed, Google Earth)?✓ Did you use different tools for different sections of the building?✓ How did you maintain consistency between different types of media (3D scans, photos, 360 panoramas)?8. Deliverables: What was delivered to the client and in what format?✓ What were the final deliverables for the project?✓ How did you package the tour for easy use by the client?✓ Did you provide training or support on how to use and share the digital twin?9. Client Feedback and Results: What was the client’s response to the final product?✓ How did the client react to the completed tour?✓ Were there any follow-up requests or additional features they wanted?✓ How has the tourism board been using the digital twin since its delivery?10. Lessons Learned: What would you do differently if you could start the project again?✓ Were there any surprises during the project that you didn’t anticipate?✓ Looking back, is there anything you would change about how you approached the project?✓ What advice would you give to someone taking on a project of this scale for the first time?Why This Matters for Real Estate PhotographersFor real estate photographers used to documenting homes of 3,500 square feet, tackling a 400,000 square foot project introduces entirely new challenges and complexities. From dealing with large open spaces to managing multiple technologies, Daniel’s experience can offer invaluable lessons for anyone looking to expand their business into larger commercial projects.

-- Are you thinking about adding STAGES by SIMLAB to your Matterport digital twins?-- Do you have a client in the AEC space that uses Matterport that wants to add STAGES?-- Would you like a deep-dive onboarding demo of Matterport + STAGES by SIMLAB?Stay tuned!On WGAN-TV Live at 5 (special time: 11 am ET and 5 pm in Poland) on Wednesday, 18 September 2024 my guest will be SIMLAB STAGES Product Owner Robert Czarlewski.TopicWGAN-TV | How to Get Started with SIMLAB STAGES: a Deep-Dive Onboarding Training DemoHighlightsWe will assume that you are already a pro with Matterport and that you have watched previous WGAN-TV Live at 5 shows about SIMLAB STAGES (www.WGAN.info/SIMLABonWGAN).Robert will show us examples of Matterport digital twin powered by SIMLAB STAGES and then show us the backend of how these SIMLAB STAGES features are added to a Matterport digital twin.Robert will show us 7 Basic Features of SIMLAB STAGES:✓ Feature 1: Creating an Organization"The first step when using Stages is to create an organization. The organization serves as your workspace, where all your projects are stored, and licenses are tied to the organization. Therefore, it’s a crucial part of the environment setup."✓ Feature 2: Creating a Project"After setting up the organization, the next step is creating a project. Each project can include various components, such as scans, notes, and other materials. I’ll show you how to create a new project step by step."✓ Feature 3: Adding Components (Matterport Scans) to a Project"Once the project is created, the next step is adding components, such as scans. This is a fundamental part of building a project in Stages, so it’s essential to know how to do it correctly."✓ Feature 4: Matterport Scan Synchronization"Scan synchronization is a critical process. In this step, it’s important to define the synchronization points in locations that are as far apart as possible and, if possible, at different heights. The first scan should be manually marked as synchronized, creating what we call a 'reference scan.' You can verify the synchronization quality using the split screen tool, and if necessary, remove and repeat the synchronization."✓ Feature 5: Adding Notes"You can add notes to each project, which allows for better documentation and team collaboration. Now, I’ll show you how to do that."✓ Feature 6: Attaching Materials to Notes"You can enhance your notes by attaching additional materials, such as images or files. This is a very useful feature that provides more information in your notes."✓ Feature 7: Sharing Projects"Lastly, we’ll cover how to share projects. You can invite other users to collaborate, assign them roles, and manage access. I’ll show you how to send invitations and manage roles within the project."Robert will also show additional features and tips and tricks:✓ Feature 8: Generating Reports"In Stages, you can generate detailed reports from each project.
