- ENTERPRISE BUILDING CAPTURE · PUBLIC BETA · JUNE 2026
Largest parametric building model ever captured with an iPhone.
Scan to BIM with iPhone Pro. Multi-floor building scans become one design-ready parametric model. Built on Apple RoomPlan.
60,000 m² captured at hospital scale. While the hospital stayed open.
√ iPhone Pro or iPad Pro required √ Public beta.
- HOW IT WORKS
From multi-floor scans to one parametric building model. In one tool.
No extra hardware. No extra software. The building stays operational.
Scan the Floors
Capture each floor separately with the Metaroom Scan App. Make each scan as large as possible — ideally a whole floor in one session.
Merge & Align
Bring every floor into one Metaroom Workspace project. Align them with precision transform controls — move, rotate, and snap floors into place.
Export & Plan
Export the entire building as one parametric model. IFC for BIM, plus 2D floor plans — every wall, door, and window comes through as a structured object.
- THE DIFFERENCE THAT MATTERS
A parametric model is a deliverable.
A mesh is a picture.
Other mobile scanners give you a 3D image. Metaroom gives you the model your planning software can use.
Walls are objects, not surfaces
Every wall, door, and window comes out as a structured object with geometry, dimensions, and classification. A mesh model has none of that.
Exports to IFC
The merged building model exports to IFC for BIM, plus a 2D floor plan as PDF for the rest of the team. Straight into your planning pipeline.
Editable, not just viewable
A parametric model can be edited, enriched, and rebuilt against changes. A mesh is read-only — what you captured is what you keep.
Planning-ready,
not render-ready
BIM, MEP, lighting, energy, facility management — they all need structured data. Mesh stops at visualisation. Parametric is the deliverable.
Proven at hospital scale. Built for any building.
Total area captured
No extra hardware
Multi-session, unified output
Our R&D team scanned a 60,000m² hospital in Germany, commissioned by Siemens
Multi-floor. Multi-session. One unified parametric model — captured entirely on an iPhone Pro using Apple’s RoomPlan API. We built Enterprise Building Capture to make it possible. Now it’s yours.
One team. One phone. A whole building in days.
No LiDAR truck. No scan-to-BIM firm. No weeks of redrawing in between.
Hardware
Specialist LiDAR scanners
Expertise
External scan-to-BIM specialists
Timeline
Weeks of redrawing
Four controls. One complete building.
Start with a new project. Import existing scans. Align with move, rotate, and export.
Merging starts in a new project. Bring in scans from your existing projects.
Reposition rooms, floors, or imported groups in 3D space.
Fix a misaligned floor. Axis constraints, exact angle input.
Your complete building in IFC or 2D format
Built for the teams that put the model to work.
Enterprise Building Capture is designed for everyone downstream of the scan — the people who plan, document, model, and manage the building after it's been captured.
If your name or your project type is on this list, the beta is built for you.
Frequently Asked Questions
What hardware do I need?
iPhone Pro or iPad Pro LiDAR scanner. No external hardware required.
How is Enterprise Building Capture different from a regular Metaroom scan?
A regular Metaroom scan captures one room or one floor at a time. Enterprise Building Capture lets you combine multiple scans — across floors, across sessions — into one unified parametric model of the whole building.
What can I export?
In the current beta, the merged building model exports to IFC for BIM and as a 2D floor plan (PDF). The comprehensive 2D PDF project report has not been included due to the length of the final document. Additional export formats will follow in later releases.
What does "parametric" mean here?
Every wall, door, and window is a structured object with geometry and classification — directly usable in BIM, MEP, lighting, energy, and facility management workflows. A mesh model cannot do this.
Can I keep editing the merged model after the export?
Yes. The merged building is a normal Metaroom Workspace project — you can keep editing, re-aligning, adding more floors, and re-exporting at any time.
Can the building stay open while we scan?
Yes. The 60,000 m² hospital scan was completed while the building stayed fully operational — no closures, no shutdowns. iPhone-based scanning is non-intrusive by design.
