Matterport is the leading spatial data company focused on digitalising and indexing the built world. Their all-in-one 3D data platform enables anyone to turn a space into an accurate and immersive digital twin which can be used to design, build, operate, promote, and understand any space.
The initial task was to map the full Scope 1, 2, and 3 carbon footprint of Matterport, a complex endeavor given their global supply chain and diverse product applications. They required a platform capable of accurately mapping their supply chain, streamlining the data collection process, and providing discernible product-specific carbon footprints. Furthermore, they needed a solution that enabled footprint analysis down to the component level of products.
The subsequent step required sophisticated tools and expertise to build a model that could compare different emissions savings across various use cases, i.e., Scope 4 emissions.
Minimum responded to Matterport's needs by creating a digital twin of their carbon-producing activities and suppliers. This mirrored Matterport’s own business model of creating digital twins of the built environment.
For Matterport’s flagship product, the Pro 2, Minimum broke down the components into their specific materials, and paired this with best-in-class emission factors. This process resulted in a highly granular footprint that empowered Matterport to target and take action on their emissions hotspots.
Minimum's platform also provided product-level emissions data, covering 100% of inputs and materials used by weight-based calculations. This allowed Matterport to view their carbon footprint in an extremely detailed and actionable way.
Following the value chain emissions analysis, Minimum utilized its modeling expertise to develop avoided emissions scenarios for the use and creation of Matterport’s digital twins. The result was a Scope 4 emissions model showcasing emissions savings for different use cases, equipping Matterport with a comprehensive view of the CO2 savings associated with digital twins.
For instance, every digital twin created saves, on average, an emissions equivalent of 444 miles of car travel. This revelation highlighted the potential environmental benefits of Matterport's digitalization efforts.
As companies globally recognize the climate crisis and set ambitious Net Zero targets, the challenges of accurately and efficiently calculating a carbon footprint have become increasingly apparent. High-level, estimated, carbon footprint data isn’t sufficient to enable effective action.
Companies need solutions that offer granular insights in order to make decisive environmental decisions. Minimum’s Carbon Accounting Software allows organizations to automate these processes, enabling them to create more accurate baseline carbon footprints, with deep insight into their own operations, their supply chain, or specific products.
Armed with Minimum's Carbon Accounting Software, Matterport now has full ownership and oversight of their Scope 1, 2, and 3 carbon footprint. The insights generated by the software enable Matterport to not only understand the environmental impact of their operations but also the significant CO2 savings associated with the use of their digital twins. Matterport stands as a testament to the power of digitalization and data-driven decision making in the pursuit of a greener future.

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
