Why a facilities team needs a shared view.
The confirmed SPLA project establishes the scale and facilities-management purpose. These are potential applications to discuss for your own organization.
Coordinate maintenance
Discuss a work location with the surrounding building context in view.
Plan improvements
Give project stakeholders a common visual reference for existing spaces.

The confirmed project
A facilities project across 20 libraries
Immersive 3D Virtual Tours completed facilities-management scanning across 20 Sacramento Public Library Authority libraries. The resulting scans are password-protected for management and facilities use.
The scope establishes the scale and purpose of this project: a multi-location library portfolio documented for an internal audience. It also shows why facilities scanning should be planned differently from a public-facing virtual tour.
Internal documentation and public presentation serve different needs
A public tour invites visitors to explore an approved space. An operational model may serve staff who need to understand a building as part of their work. The audience determines what should be captured, which areas should be excluded, and how access is managed.
For SPLA, the facilities scans remain restricted. This case study does not include those models, access links, passwords, screenshots, or operational details.
What the project demonstrates
The project combines a 20-library capture scope with a clear facilities-management purpose and password-protected access for the people who manage the buildings.
For other library systems and public agencies, this is a useful starting point for discussing a coordinated scanning program: define the location list, establish the intended users, and specify the capture and handoff requirements before the site visits.
What this means for your library system
If your team manages several buildings, start with the decisions that need better spatial context: reviewing a branch remotely, explaining a proposed work location, or helping project stakeholders understand an existing layout. We can discuss how a capture scope, controlled access, and a practical handoff could support those needs.
We welcome inquiries from library and government teams across Northern California, including Contra Costa County and San Francisco. Read about our government and public library scanning service, or explore commercial Matterport and 3D scanning for the wider range of applications.

Your questions
The SPLA project, explained.
The confirmed scope, intended audience, and public examples for this library portfolio.
Discuss your projectWhat did Immersive 3D Virtual Tours complete for SPLA?
We completed facilities-management scanning across 20 Sacramento Public Library Authority libraries.
What were the scans intended for?
The scans are for management and facilities use. Their operational audience distinguishes them from a public visitor or event-space tour.
Can we view those facilities models here?
No. The facilities scans are password-protected, and restricted models, screenshots, and access details are not included on this page.
Is the Galleria tour one of the restricted facilities models?
The Galleria events tour is the separate public example already featured on our homepage. It is not presented as access to the restricted facilities scans.
Does this case study establish a measured return on investment?
It establishes the project scope and intended use. Any savings or operational results for another organization depend on its requirements, workflows, and use of the models.
Can you discuss a similar project for our library system?
Yes. Tell us which facilities you manage and the decisions or workflows you want to support. We welcome Northern California inquiries, including Contra Costa County and San Francisco.
