District Cinema, a creative technology studio specializing in virtual production and reality capture, has announced the launch of Terra, a web based 3D viewer built for film and TV production workflows, alongside a global Production Capture Network designed to supply productions with location scan data from vetted capture professionals around the world.

Terra is designed to let creative teams virtually scout, block shots, and take spatial measurements inside Gaussian Splat environments directly from a standard desktop browser, with no specialized hardware or large file downloads required. The platform targets the specific pain point in production of the cost, time, and carbon footprint associated with moving creative teams to physical locations for scouting and pre-production planning.
