Giraffe360 hosts its third webinar in a powerful education series for real estate photographers transitioning into full-service media providers, as viewed in this WGAN-TV Podcast episode (above).Giraffe360 Chief Customer Officer Samy Jeffries and Lead Product Manager Ainars Klavins present a compelling case for using the new Giraffe PRO Camera to meet the growing demand for immersive media in real estate.Key Takeaways✓ Shift in market demands: 82% of millennial buyers now expect immersive media—video, 3D, floor plans—but only 9% of agents provide them. Giraffe360 empowers photographers to close that gap.✓ New business model: Giraffe360 positions real estate photographers as strategic partners—like interior designers—not just vendors.✓ End-to-end solution: With the Giraffe PRO Camera and Giraffe360 Content Studio, creators can capture stills, floor plans, 3D tours, and cinematic + drone-style videos—all from one scan, one visit.✓ Gaussian Splatting for real estate: Ainars introduces breakthrough photorealistic 3D modeling using Gaussian Splatting, enabling “virtual drone” and cinematic videos generated post-scan—no drone pilot, lighting crew, or insurance required.✓ Deep dive into Content Studio: Fully AI-powered editing workflow includes HDR photo processing, object removal, blur control, sky replacement, and camera removal—plus multi-language support and customizable presets.✓ New video formats: Giraffe360 now supports cinematic walkthroughs and virtual drone-style fly-throughs generated automatically.

In this WGAN-TV Podcast, guest host Tom Sparks, Founder and CEO of Scan Your Space (a Division of Sparks Media Group), field-tests the Giraffe360 GO Camera in a real-world warehouse environment — walking through the scanning process, testing still photos, and reviewing the final deliverables.Tom captures multiple scan points inside a large warehouse on Mare Island, California, using the Giraffe360 GO Camera. Scans take around 58 seconds each, and the camera’s SLAM-like behavior allows it to record measurement data while being carried — enabling floor plan generation with minimal scan points. Tom uploads the project to the cloud later that day and receives the completed 3D tour, floor plan, and still photo by the following morning.---The Giraffe360 GO Camera is designed for real estate agents who want an easy-to-use, all-in-one camera for creating professional-looking property tours without needing extra devices. In contrast, the Giraffe PRO Camera is built with the advanced features and control that real estate photographers expect — making it ideal for high-volume professionals seeking refined results and maximum image quality.---Tom's final verdict? The Giraffe360 GO delivers a fast, user-friendly workflow without needing a tablet or phone. He finds the 12MP still photo useable, the ANSI 765–compliant floor plan impressive, and the 3D tour polished. However, he suggests slower transitions and Ken Burns-style effects in the auto-generated video for better viewer experience.WGAN Special Offer:==========================================================================Two Giraffe360 Special Offers for WGAN CommunitySpecial Offer 1 - Giraffe360 Pro Camera (for real estate photographers):✓ Get early access to the new Giraffe PRO Camera - WGAN exclusive 60-day trial offer – just $123 per month - Be among the first to try the all-new Giraffe PRO Camera as it officially launches.

In this episode of the WGAN Forum Podcast, host Eric Marquette and the digital twin of We Get Around Network Founder and Managing Editor Dan Smigrod take a deep dive into how the Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) is leveraging cutting-edge technology, including 1,500+ Matterport scans, to enhance operations, sustainability, and efficiency. Recorded after Geo Week 2025 in Denver, this discussion explores how DFW is integrating digital twins, IoT sensors, and GIS mapping systems to streamline asset management and predictive maintenance.
Geo Week 2025: A Firsthand Perspective
Dan shares his experience at Geo Week, where three key sessions focused on DFW’s digital transformation. As the fifth busiest airport in the world, handling millions of passengers and nearly 2,000 aircraft daily, DFW has embraced advanced technologies to maintain and improve operational efficiency. Matterport scans play a critical role in documenting infrastructure, integrating with digital twin platforms, and enhancing data-driven decision-making.
Matterport's Role in DFW’s Digital Twin Ecosystem
The conversation highlights how Matterport is a cornerstone of DFW’s approach to creating dynamic digital twins. These scans help:
Document terminal spaces and key infrastructure
Enhance predictive maintenance for assets like passenger boarding bridges and HVAC systems
Provide technicians with unique URLs for scanned spaces, allowing direct visual access to rooms and assets
Integrate IoT sensor data for real-time monitoring
Dan speculates that DFW could potentially enhance these efforts by integrating SIMLAB SIM-ON, allowing Matterport scans to overlay additional datasets like BIM models, IoT sensor data, and maintenance records via IBM Maximo.
Operational Benefits and Predictive Maintenance
Matterport is revolutionizing asset management at DFW, eliminating the inefficiencies of traditional paper-based systems. The airport’s digital twin ecosystem allows teams to visually inspect assets before on-site visits, reducing downtime and ensuring maintenance teams are equipped with the right tools. By integrating predictive analytics, DFW can foresee potential failures in critical systems like HVACs and boarding bridges before they happen, optimizing resources and reducing costs.
Environmental Sustainability & Efficiency Gains
A standout segment focuses on how DFW is leveraging digital tools, including Matterport, to enhance sustainability:
Reducing aircraft fuel consumption: By optimizing gate docking procedures, ensuring proper ground connections, and minimizing auxiliary power use, American Airlines alone is projected to save up to $15 million annually in fuel costs.
Stormwater management: Matterport scans help track stormwater outflows, ensuring contaminant-free water sources and integrating real-time IoT monitoring to prevent environmental damage.
Optimizing landscape management: The scans provide a visual framework for monitoring airport surroundings, enabling proactive environmental protection.
Looking Ahead: The Future of Digital Twins at DFW
Dan and Eric discuss how DFW’s integration of Matterport, GIS, and predictive analytics sets a precedent for airports worldwide. With potential advancements like SIMLAB SIM-ON and wearable mobile mapping (NavVis VLX 3), DFW is pushing the boundaries of infrastructure management.
Final Thoughts & Call-to-Action
DFW’s approach demonstrates that digital transformation isn’t just about convenience—it’s about solving real-world challenges at scale. Listeners interested in learning more can visit:

The episode wraps up with a surprising AI twist: Dan reveals that his voice in this podcast is actually his digital twin, generated using three AI platforms—one for transcription, another for identifying Matterport-specific insights, and a third for outlining and scripting the show.
As Eric sums it up: "Three different AI tools—and a human in the loop—to create this podcast. The future is here."
