Matterport Manuals
Capture & Postproduction Manuals
The CaptureTrain Capture Manual and Postproduction Manual are comprehensive, professionally maintained reference guides designed to support consistent, high-quality Matterport workflows—from site preparation and image capture through to processing, optimisation, and final delivery.
Written for both new and experienced operators, the manuals combine practical instruction with industry best practice, covering real-world scenarios, common pitfalls, and efficiency-driven workflows. They are intended to be used both as structured learning resources and as ongoing, in-field references.
Access to the manuals is provided via an online subscription, ensuring content remains current as platforms, hardware, and professional standards evolve.
Included with Certification
All learners enrolled on CaptureTrain’s Certified Capture and Certified Capture & Postproduction Courses receive one year’s full access to both manuals as part of their course enrolment.
For professionals not undertaking certification, the manuals are available separately by subscription.
