3D scans are incredible. Navigating them shouldn't be a guessing game.
You've captured a stunning 3D environment—but without a bird's-eye layout, it's hard to orient yourself, plan spaces, or share a simple overview with clients. Here's how we fix that.
Lost in the scan
Immersive 3D is powerful, but without a top-down reference you can lose your bearings in complex or large environments.
No layout to share
Clients and stakeholders want a clean floor plan—not instructions on how to navigate a 3D viewer.
Manual drafting is slow
Hiring a draftsperson or tracing layouts by hand takes days. Your scan already has all the data—it just needs to be extracted.
One-Click AI Floor Plan Generation
Click the Floor Plan tool and watch it happen. Our AI analyzes millions of Gaussian data points from your 3D scan, identifies walls, doorways, and structural boundaries, and renders a clean top-down 2D layout—instantly.
No manual drafting. No external software. The architectural footprint is already in your scan—Splat Labs just extracts it.
Clean It Up with AI Prompts
Real spaces have clutter. Use our built-in AI editor to digitally strip away furniture, inventory, and foot-traffic ghosting using simple text prompts—revealing the clean architectural shell underneath.
- Remove furniture, shelving, and temporary fixtures
- Clean up ghosting from busy environments
- Stylize with different visual themes
- Refine specific areas before downloading
Connect Your Floor Plan to the 3D World
Whether you generated it with AI or uploaded your own, the floor plan needs to know where it sits in 3D space. Our 3-point calibration system handles that in seconds.
Download as PNG
Export the AI-generated floor plan as a high-resolution PNG. Edit it in Photoshop, Illustrator, or any tool—then bring it back.
Upload Your Own Plans
Already have architectural drawings? Upload existing floor plans in PNG or JPEG format and integrate them into your project.
How Calibration Works
Open the Calibration tool in the floor plan editor
Walk to a recognizable spot in your 3D scan and select it
Click the same location on the 2D floor plan. Repeat for 3+ points.
Click Calibrate—scale, rotation, and position sync automatically
Your Floor Plan Becomes a Live Mini-Map
This is where it all comes together. Your generated, refined, and calibrated floor plan isn't just an image—it's now a live navigation layer inside the 3D viewer. As you walk through the Gaussian Splat, a real-time indicator on the mini-map shows exactly where you are and which direction you're facing.
Real-Time Position Tracking
See your exact location on the 2D floor plan as you navigate the 3D space. Never lose your bearings again.
Click-to-Navigate
Click any point on the mini-map to jump directly to that location in the 3D viewer. Explore spaces faster and more intuitively.
Spatial Orientation
Orient the map to match your physical space for seamless navigation, accurate space planning, and professional facility walkthroughs.

Frequently Asked Questions
01How accurate are the AI-generated floor plans?
Splat Labs provides high-fidelity visual maps optimized for navigation and orientation. We are developing a major update to introduce real-world measurements and CAD export (.DXF/.DWG)—moving the tool from visual reference to precision architectural planning.
02What file formats are supported for download and upload?
AI-generated floor plans are downloaded as PNG files. When uploading your own floor plans or re-uploading edited ones, Splat Labs supports both PNG and JPEG formats.
03Can the AI remove people and clutter from the floor plan?
Yes. Our AI editing tool lets you strip away non-structural clutter—inventory, shelving, temporary fixtures, and even foot-traffic ghosting—using simple text prompts. This reveals the clean architectural shell of a property.
04What hardware is required for the best results?
Splat Labs is hardware-agnostic, but it is optimized for the Portal Cam. By combining LiDAR data with a multi-camera array, the system captures the geometric density needed to resolve complex textures and fine structural details.
05How long does the data processing take?
All heavy processing is handled in the Splat Labs cloud—no high-end workstation required. As a general benchmark, a 30-minute walk-through typically processes in about 12 hours, delivering a high-resolution 3D environment and floor plan.
06Do the downloaded PNGs include scale metadata?
Not automatically. Scale and orientation are applied through the platform's 3-point calibration feature, which links your 2D floor plan to the 3D scan with precise alignment. We are exploring automatic scale embedding in a future update.
07How does the system handle large-scale or multi-story projects?
We use a Portal-based workflow to link separate scans. Large projects are divided into manageable sections—individual floors, interior/exterior sets—and stitched together for seamless navigation without performance degradation.
