Most AI-generated worlds are optimized to look realistic. But physical AI systems operating in the real world need something much harder: geometry that is physically consistent, spatially accurate, and grounded to real-world coordinates.
Our latest Ground Truth blog breaks down how Niantic Spatial reconstructs georeferenced 3D environments from off-the-shelf drones, phones, and 360° imagery — solving depth, alignment, and surface consistency at scale.

i like big splats and i cannot lie.
you can now compress, tile and stream city scale 3d gaussian splats -- glTF has an official 3DGS extension now too.
this is what the future of google earth looks like. no more broccoli trees. no more melted powerlines. immaculate ground level detail that actually holds up.
