    Trimble Reality Capture platform is designed to “enable more effective collaboration and the secure sharing of massive reality capture datasets captured with 3D laser scanning, mobile mapping and uncrewed aerial vehicle (UAV) systems,” according to the company.

    The service is available as an extension to Trimble Connect, its cloud-based common data environment. This service is the most recent addition to the Trimble connected workflow ecosystem, connecting the physical and digital worlds through reality capture data.

    Intended to drive deeper collaboration among owners, contractors, surveyors and more, the Trimble Reality Capture platform service offers a web-based solution for point clouds and 360-degree imagery. Professionals across building construction, surveying, transportation infrastructure, utilities, energy, mining and more can now collaborate on reality capture projects faster and easier, while maintaining data integrity and original accuracy.

    “This new service applies cloud technology in a new way for large data packages, allowing users to significantly scale performance and maximize data value,” said Boris Skopljak, VP, geospatial, in a statement. “With this launch, we are a step closer to realizing living digital twins and artificial intelligence applications at scale.”

    This service securely democratizes access to reality capture data, including massive datasets captured by mobile mapping by terrestrial laser scanners like the Trimble MX series and Trimble X9, as well as data from third-party hardware. 

    The Trimble Reality Capture platform service is available as a subscription service. Users access their reality capture data through a seamlessly integrated extension in Trimble Connect, alongside their other 2D and 3D data.
