Can you scan occupied buildings without disruption?
Category: process
Yes, we specialize in scanning occupied spaces with minimal disruption. Our NavVis VLX3 mobile mapper walks through spaces at normal pace—no tripod setup blocking areas. We can scan around furniture and occupants. For sensitive environments (hospitals, data centers), we schedule off-hours or rolling access. Typical commercial spaces can be scanned during normal business hours with 10-15 minutes notice per area.
