Architecture
Visible walls, floors, doors, columns, ceilings, windows, bathroom fixtures, stairs and roofs captured in the Matterport scan.
Matterport CAD File · Commercial 2D DWG Deliverables
Turn Matterport Spatial Data Into a Practical 2D CAD Starting Point.
Commercial Matterport capture coordinated with Matterport CAD File processing for teams that need 2D AutoCAD-ready floor plans, architectural layers, selected furniture or electrical detail, and a consistent existing-condition reference.

Matterport + Digital Capture Ecosystem
Choose the Output the Project Actually Needs.
A hosted digital twin, a 2D CAD file, a point-cloud output and a modeled BIM deliverable solve different problems. The final use should determine the output.
Matterport CAD Product Scopes
Select the Drawing Content the Project Team Actually Needs.
Matterport allows one or more CAD scopes to be selected. The source scan must clearly capture the visible conditions needed for the requested drawing layers.
Architecture + Interior Furniture
Includes the Architecture scope plus visible desks, tables, cabinets, shelves, chairs, seating, appliances, kitchen elements and selected wall fixtures.
Architecture + Electrical
Includes Architecture plus visible electrical elements such as power/data outlets, lighting fixtures, switches, alarms and related items represented in the scan point cloud.
Architecture + Furniture + Electrical
Combines the Architecture, Interior Furniture and Electrical scopes into one coordinated CAD deliverable.
Complex MEP should be treated as a BIM workflow, not a standard 2D CAD scope. Matterport recommends the BIM File service when the project requires more advanced mechanical, electrical or plumbing systems represented as suitable 3D assets.
Matterport CAD Examples
Review the Drawing Style Before the Project Is Scoped.
Matterport's sample imagery provides a useful reference for the type of 2D CAD output and layer organization the service is designed to provide.
Sample CAD Output
2D Existing-Condition Drawing
Use the sample to confirm whether the Matterport CAD File format aligns with the architect, designer, contractor or facility team's downstream needs.
Layered CAD Reference
Standardized AutoCAD-Ready Delivery
Matterport CAD Files are drafted to ISO 13567. Review the samples before ordering if local drafting standards or layer conventions are important to the project.
Matterport Processing Example
Example Processing Estimates for a 5,000 sq.ft. Matterport Space.
The figures below are the Matterport-provided processing estimates for a 5,000 sq.ft. space. Final Matterport processing price can change after final square footage is calculated during CAD File creation.
| CAD Scope | Estimated Processing Time | Matterport Estimated Price |
|---|---|---|
| Architecture (Standard) | 3–8 days | $900 |
| Architecture + Interior Furniture | 4–8 days | $1,170 |
| Architecture + Electrical | 4–8 days | $1,170 |
| Architecture + Interior Furniture + Electrical | 4–8 days | $1,500 |
Pricing note: These are Matterport processing estimates tied to a 5,000 sq.ft. space. They are not Pinnacle's complete customer project price. Pinnacle field capture, travel, access, urgency, project management and other requested services should be quoted separately through the Commercial Project Scope process.

01
Scanning Accuracy
CAD accuracy is based on the accuracy and completeness of the underlying Matterport scan data.
02
Scanning Best Practices
Thorough scanning helps reduce misalignment, missing areas and incomplete captured conditions.
03
Delivery Window
Matterport states that CAD File orders can take up to 8 days to be delivered.
Choose the Right Output
CAD, Point Cloud and BIM Are Related—but They Are Not the Same Deliverable.
Choose the output based on what the design, construction or facility team needs to do next.
Matterport CAD File
Best when the team needs a standardized 2D DWG drawing with selected architectural, furniture or electrical content.
- AutoCAD 2020 .DWG
- ISO 13567 layer standard
- 2D downstream drafting workflow
MatterPak / E57
Best when the project team wants downloadable spatial data for its own third-party modeling or coordination workflow.
- Point-cloud / spatial data path
- Team controls downstream modeling
- Separate output and fee
Matterport BIM File
Best when the team needs an RVT-based LOD 200 model with architecture and optional furniture or MEP content.
- 3D modeled deliverable
- Complex MEP option
- Professional review required

These references can help architects, designers, contractors and facility teams confirm whether the Matterport CAD File matches the required use before the project is captured.
Matterport CAD File FAQ
Common Questions About Matterport CAD Files.
What does the Matterport CAD File provide?
Matterport converts compatible spatial scan data into a 2D CAD deliverable in AutoCAD 2020 .DWG format. Architecture is the base scope, with optional Interior Furniture and Electrical content.
What is included in the Architecture scope?
The Architecture scope includes visible walls, floors, doors, columns, ceilings, windows, bathroom fixtures, stairs and roofs represented in the scan data.
Can furniture and electrical elements be included?
Yes. Matterport offers Architecture + Interior Furniture, Architecture + Electrical, and a combined Architecture + Interior Furniture + Electrical scope.
Does the CAD File include complex MEP systems?
Standard CAD scope is not intended for advanced mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems. Matterport recommends the BIM File service when complex MEP needs to be represented as more suitable 3D assets.
What drafting standard does Matterport use?
Matterport states that CAD Files are drafted according to ISO 13567, the international CAD layer standard. Custom layers are not currently offered.
How large can a CAD File project be?
Matterport states that CAD Files are unavailable for Spaces over 125,000 sq. ft. / 11,610 m².
How long does CAD processing take?
Matterport states orders can take up to 8 days. A 5,000 sq.ft. space, Architecture is estimated at 3–8 days and the other listed scopes at 4–8 days.
How do I request a commercial Matterport CAD project?
Use Pinnacle's Commercial Project Scope form so the building area, floors, access, desired CAD scope, required layers, timeline and downstream use can be reviewed before scheduling.
