When working in a complex 3D environment, quickly identifying the location of specific project items is essential for coordination. This feature allows you to jump directly to items associated with supported Procore tools, such as Coordination Issues or Inspections, within the 3D space. If the model is mapped to 2D drawings, Procore provides additional context by highlighting the item's location on a 2D Minimap.
Tip
What's the difference between a link & a pin in a model? A link ties an item in a Procore tool directly to a physical 3D model object (like a specific pipe or door). It does not require dropping a spatial pin. A pin ties a record to a specific spatial coordinate (X, Y, Z location) in the model by dropping a visual 3D pin.
