3D capture / Self-service scanning
You scan, we process, publish and host
Does your organization already own a scanner, or plan to buy one? Your team handles physical capture. 360models checks and processes the data, then publishes the result in a managed online environment.
Short answer
With self-service 3D scanning, your own team captures each location using existing or newly purchased equipment. 360models checks quality, processes the scan data and delivers files or a hosted online viewer. This removes our on-site capture costs while keeping specialist processing, publishing and management professionally organized.
When relevant
Do you recognize one of these situations?
If your organization already owns a SLAM scanner, iPad, smartphone, camera or drone but lacks a reliable processing and publishing workflow.
If locations need regular capture without sending an external scanning specialist to every site.
If field staff can scan but should not spend time cleaning and optimizing point clouds, meshes or Gaussian Splats.
If raw scan data must quickly become a shareable viewer, point cloud, 3D model or technical deliverable.
If several teams, offices or partners need one consistent method for capture, delivery and publishing.
If you plan to purchase scanners but first need a scalable workflow for processing, hosting and management.
Capabilities
How 360models puts 3D to work
Capture plan and instructions
We translate the required result into a practical scan route, instructions and quality checklist for staff on site.
Equipment review
We verify whether existing or planned hardware and its file output match the required accuracy and intended application.
Upload and technical intake
Your team supplies the raw capture. We check coverage, structure, scale, alignment and usability before full processing starts.
Processing and optimization
We register, clean and optimize scan data for the agreed result without creating unnecessarily heavy deliverables.
Output matched to the work
Choose a point cloud, textured mesh, Gaussian Splat, online viewer, CAD, BIM or drawing output based on the intended use.
Publishing, hosting and access
We publish the result in 360models, structure it by organization or project and give the right colleagues and partners controlled access.
Repeatable scan workflow
For recurring capture, we establish a consistent method for naming, quality control, versioning and publishing.
File support
Files for 3D models, point clouds and documentation
360models brings different 3D sources together. For each project, we determine which files are ready to use, which need optimization for online viewing and which should remain available as original source files.

Point clouds
Images and documentation
Approach
From source data to daily use
Define the application and output
We agree what users need to view, measure, share or download and which accuracy supports that purpose.
Align hardware and capture route
We review the scanner, create a capture protocol and advise on routes, overlap, sightlines and control points.
Your team captures the site
An employee, technician or partner scans the location or object at a suitable time within your own schedule.
Upload the raw data
The capture is supplied securely with the agreed project name, location details and any supporting photos or documents.
We process and verify
360models processes and optimizes the data. If coverage is missing, we identify the exact area that needs another capture.
Publish, host and manage
We deliver the agreed files and can host the result in a viewer with measurements, annotations, versions and access control.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Scan with your own SLAM scanner, iPad or smartphone. 360models processes the data and handles publishing, hosting and online access.
Where could 3D help your team today?
Start with the problem you want to solve. Data and business logic can remain in existing software; 360models adds only the capture, management and visual 3D application you need.
