3D virtual tour of the Gatineau drinking water production plant
Panosphere 360 scanned the City of Gatineau’s drinking water production plant in Matterport 3D. The capture, done in May 2023 with the Matterport Pro3 camera, covers 133,192 sq. ft.: pump rooms, motors, piping, panels and technical rooms, room by room. Nine information tags are placed in the tour.

A drinking water plant is not a place people can simply walk into. In 3D, you move from room to room on screen, open the dollhouse view to see how the floors stack up, and take a measurement between two pieces of equipment. The City of Gatineau uses it to train its employees, to prepare maintenance and construction work, and to give engineers an accurate record of the site ahead of possible renovations.
What the scan delivers
- A measurable 3D tour: every pump, pipe and panel is where it belongs, and distances are taken right in the tour.
- A 3D model and a 2D floor plan of the building, from the same capture.
- Information tags placed on the equipment, which the client can add to later without the tour’s address changing.
