3D mapping technology provides a three-dimensional representation of physical spaces and is widely used across various industries, including architecture, engineering, and urban planning. This study uses SketchUp to develop a 3D map for the Administration Learning Center (ALC) of Central Philippines State University-Main Campus. The project aimed to generate a realistic and detailed visualization of the ALC, showcasing external perspectives, including textures and colors, and interior features such as rooms, doors, windows, walls, and pillars. The methodology involved gathering building schematics, site measurements, and rendering the 3D model using SketchUp Pro 2022. The final 3D map serves as an accessible digital representation that aids university administrators, planners, and students in visualizing the ALC structure for planning and navigation purposes. Survey responses from five staff members and 20 students revealed high satisfaction ratings regarding the model’s functionality, design, and effectiveness. Results indicate that the 3D map enhances navigation, provides precise spatial representation, and improves accessibility to structural information. The study highlights the potential of 3D mapping in educational institutions, particularly for facility management and future campus development. Recommendations include expanding the 3D mapping initiative to cover other university buildings and integrating real-time updates to reflect structural modifications.
