Capture
Niantic Spatial’s Capture tools and services connect AI to the real world by collecting high-resolution 3D data — the foundation of Niantic Spatial’s Large Geospatial Model — and supports multiple workflows: Scaniverse, On-Demand Data Capture, and Bring Your Own Data (BYOD) integrations.
Niantic Spatial Capture enables high-fidelity 3D inputs for reconstruction, localization, and real-world understanding, turning real-world data into the foundation for spatial intelligence.
Scaniverse
Scaniverse is the market-leading phone-based world scanning application, enabling anyone from creators to field teams to scan real-world environments with precision and ease.
Key Capabilities
Export or integrate seamlessly: Export scans in standard 3D formats - including our open-source SPZ format, reducing file size by 90%.
High-fidelity mobile scanning: Capture detailed 3D scans from iOS and Android devices.
Photorealistic results: Generate Gaussian Splats and meshes processed efficiently on-device.
Built for Niantic Spatial pipelines: Connect directly with Niantic Spatial’s reconstruction and localization workflows (coming soon).
Collaborative tools: Team-based scanning and data management (coming soon).
On-Demand Data Capture
Our on-demand data capture service supports geospatial capture at any scale, enabling VPS coverage, digital twin creation, and spatial understanding.
For organizations needing large-area or complex-site capture, Niantic Spatial offers full-service data acquisition workflows. Trained operators collect and process geospatial data at any scale.
Key Benefits
Full end-to-end project management: We manage every stage of data capture, from planning to delivery, using years of 3D scanning expertise across consumer devices, drones, and mobile mapping.
Mission-Critical Accuracy: Our team uses multi-sensor hardware to deliver geo-referenced, centimeter-level accuracy for enterprise-grade applications.
Turnkey, Optimized Assets: We manage the entire workflow delivering a fully processed, high-fidelity digital twin, not just raw data.
Enterprise Privacy by Default: Your data stays private and secure, processed and stored exclusively for your organization.
Bring Your Own Data (BYOD)
Integrate your own imagery, scans, and telemetry. Niantic Spatial Capture is data-source agnostic, enabling organizations to connect drone imagery, LiDAR scans, or sensor datasets.
