We have a great “how-to” episode for you!
Our WGAN-TV Podcast Co-Host is Tom Sparks (Founder and CEO, ScanYourSpace — a division of Sparks Media Group). Tom shows and tells how to use the Matterport Merge Tool. Tom uses scans from Oracle Park — home of the San Francisco Giants.
In this episode, Tom:
✓ Walks through selecting and merging 7 separate tours into a single, massive stadium model (and then more scans)
✓ Demonstrates manual alignment when auto align falls short
✓ Shares challenges like space limits, partial scans, and construction blockages
✓ Explains his staged merging process to manage large scan counts
✓ Reveals tips for handling big, complex projects with the Matterport Merge Tool
Takeaway Quote
“Merging big models is part patience, part puzzle-solving — and a little bit of luck when the auto align actually works.” — Tom Sparks
