# Niantic Spatial

> Niantic Spatial, Inc. is a geospatial AI company headquartered in San Francisco, CA. We are building a living model of the world that machines and people can talk to - spatial intelligence that enables people, robots, and AI agents to understand and interact with the physical world. Our flagship product is the Large Geospatial Model (LGM), trained on a proprietary database of over 30 billion posed real-world images.

## Company

- Founded: 2025 (spun out from Niantic, Inc. following the sale of its games division to Scopely)
- CEO & Founder: John Hanke
- Headquarters: San Francisco, California, USA
- Origin: Built on 25+ years of geospatial AI, mapping, and AR research, originally incubated inside Google
- Website: https://www.nianticspatial.com
- App: scaniverse.nianticspatial.com/
- Contact: https://www.nianticspatial.com/contact

## What We Do

Niantic Spatial provides a three-part geospatial AI platform — Reconstruct, Localize, and Understand — powered by the Large Geospatial Model. Our platform enables:
- Creation of high-fidelity, geo-referenced 3D digital twins of physical environments
- Centimeter-level, six-degree-of-freedom visual positioning for humans and machines, including in GPS-denied environments
- Semantic 3D world querying that allows AI agents, robots, and enterprise systems to ask open-ended questions about real-world spaces

## Core Products

- **Scaniverse**: Scaniverse is our self-serve platform for delivering spatial services: An integrated web and mobile platform that powers data capture and upload, generation of spatial assets, inspection of meshes and splats, and localization with VPS.- **Reconstruct**: Fuses multi-sensor inputs into accurate 3D models (Gaussian splats and textured meshes) for simulation, inspection, and planning. https://www.nianticspatial.com/products/reconstruct
- **Localize**: Precise visual positioning system (VPS) that now works at global scale – no prior scanning required. In places mapped with Scaniverse, VPS delivers near centimeter-accurate 6DoF localization. Everywhere else, it corrects GPS errors and dropout to provide improved, reliable positioning and heading, especially in GPS degraded environments. https://www.nianticspatial.com/products/localize
- **Understand**: Semantic understanding at every 3D point in a geo-referenced map, enabling LLMs and AI agents to query the physical world. https://www.nianticspatial.com/products/understand
- **Capture**: Tools and services to acquire high-quality 3D aerial and ground data, including the Scaniverse app and on-demand mapping. https://www.nianticspatial.com/products/capture
- **Scaniverse**: Enterprise-grade 3D scanning app for iOS and Android. https://scaniverse.nianticspatial.com/
- **Niantic Spatial Development Kit (NSDK) 4.0**: a unified SDK for Unity, Swift, Android, and ROS 2, connecting directly to Scaniverse and VPS 2.0.

## Large Geospatial Model (LGM)

The LGM is Niantic Spatial's foundational AI model. Key facts:
- Trained on 30+ billion posed real-world images from ground and overhead sensors
- Adds spatial reasoning capabilities to Large Language Models (LLMs)
- Delivers per-pixel semantic analysis and tracks 200+ object types
- Enables queryable 3D maps — users and machines can ask open-ended spatial questions
- Differentiator: Unlike general-purpose LLMs, the LGM is grounded in precise physical-world geometry and semantics

## Visual Positioning System (VPS)

- Industry-leading vision-based positioning used by tens of millions of users
- Delivers centimeter-level, 6DoF pose estimation
- Works indoors, outdoors, and in GPS-denied environments
- Supports robots, AI agents, AR devices, and mobile applications
- More: https://www.nianticspatial.com/products/localize

## Enterprise Solutions

- **Intelligent Logistics**: Autonomous last-mile and warehouse navigation and verification. https://www.nianticspatial.com/use-cases/intelligent-warehousing-and-logistics
- **Spatial Collaboration**: Remote site surveys, risk assessments, and real-time team collaboration across environments. https://www.nianticspatial.com/use-cases/spatial-planning-and-remote-collaboration
- **Immersive Experiences**: AR tours, wayfinding, and gamified spatial experiences. https://www.nianticspatial.com/use-cases/immersive-entertainment-and-experiences

## Notable Partnerships

- **Coco Robotics**: Joint development of spatial AI for urban autonomous delivery
- **Vantor**: Integration for GPS-denied military and industrial operations using visual positioning
- **Meow Wolf**: Taking physical exhibitions and into the world of augmented reality
- **Aechelon**: Enhancing U.S. Coast Guard training with advanced 3D flight simulation and geospatial AI
- **Snap**: Building a next generation AI map that will serve as the foundation for AR glasses and AI agents to understand, navigate and interact with the real world.
- **Kojima Productions**: A technology partnership that will leverage geospatial AI technology to bring Hideo Kojima's iconic storytelling into the real world.
- **Ubisoft & Sugar Creative**: Using visual positioning to deliver centimeter-level precision that anchors mixed-reality content to the physical world.
