406. How I Used the Matterport Merge Tool to Create a Massive Tour of a Baseball Stadium

– Would you like to see a demo of the Matterport Merge Tool?
– For this Matterport merge, how about using a massive space: a baseball stadium with seven Matterport tours with a combined total of 745 scan points?


Watch a special edition of the WGAN-TV Podcast (above) for digital twin creators shaping the future of real estate today.

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
