Abstract
This project is an open-source 3D model of a digital twin of the Kirby Crossing environment, made to bridge the gap between physical architecture and immersive digital interaction. The twin was captured through a multi-modal approach, utilizing the Matterport 3D camera system alongside LiDAR scanning captured by walking through the area to fill gaps where the camera did not scan. By executing multiple walking passes from diverse angles, we ensured a comprehensive and precise spatial dataset. To optimize the data for collaborative research, the raw point clouds were converted into an efficient 3D mesh (.obj) format. Through optimization of shaders and textures (though quite compressed) the final scene maintains photorealistic quality and high fidelity while remaining under a 100 MB file size. This lightweight footprint eliminates the need for Git Large File Storage (LFS), making it ideal for streamlined version control and global GitHub collaboration.

Research Contributions
Preserves a precise digital record of location architecture, ensuring long-term historical spatial documentation for heritage conservation and future structural reference.
Enables designers to visualize virtual layers atop physical twins, facilitating the development of seamless, design AR experiences in user-centric FOV perspectives.
Integrates tracking data with digital twin playback to analyze movement, eye-gaze, and spatial interaction in a repeatable environment.
Serves as a sandbox for modeling microclimates, solar paths, and emergency evacuations by layering environmental data onto architectural replicas.
Democratizes access to high-quality spatial assets, allowing global researchers to test indoor-outdoor navigation and localization algorithms without site travel.
