What can I do with my scan?
Mapperty is designed to help professionals save time on creating as-builts. Mapperty can turn your scan into a detailed measurement report, 2D, 3d scan and create a small 3D model on your screen.
Measuring Tool:
Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old.
Notes, Annotations, and Images
Canvas includes the ability to add notes to your scan so you can reference them later when you aren’t actively working with your clients! For instance, if you want to note a cabinet with a door that needs replacing, tap the sticky note icon, tap the cabinet door and annotate!
Export
Scans can be exported as a 3D mesh in .obj format. Exporting reprocessed scans will include textures and an .mtl file.
