How NavVis Reality Capture Solution transforms a laser-scanning business

You know that NavVis VLX can capture an indoor environment with unprecedented ease. But you might not know that the scanner is just one piece of the holistic NavVis Reality Capture Solution. This solution includes several advanced software tools — like our Cloud Processing Add-on and NavVis IVION spatial data platform — that are designed to improve your whole workflow, from end to end.
Taken as a whole, NavVis’ solution can do a lot more than speed up your capture. It can transform the economics of your laser scanning business.
The NavVis Reality Capture Solution can improve your business in several ways. With the mobile scanner, NavVis VLX, Cloud Processing Add-on, and NavVis IVION, you can reduce your prices and speed up your workflow. And that enables you to grow your profits, change your business model, and even work your way into new markets previously inaccessible to laser scanning professionals.
If you’re familiar with scanners like NavVis VLX, the economic benefits of a mobile mapping system should be clear. These devices can capture environments faster than a TLS, whether they’re small or big, simple or complex.
By reducing the time it takes to scan, you reduce your expenses and still provide high enough accuracy for the great majority of use cases and customers.
Traditionally, laser scanning professionals (LSPs) perform data processing with desktop software running on a computer in the office. This can be time-consuming. NavVis’ Cloud Processing Add-on changes this. It processes your data using numerous secure servers located offsite, which increases your computing power and automates the process.
The alignment of TLS scans is often a time-consuming process that involves correcting the work of cloud-to-cloud algorithms or locating control points manually to tie point clouds together. NavVis VLX improves on this. With NavVis’ spatial data software, NavVis IVION, can perform a fully automatic alignment of the data set. Your manual work will be minimal. You’ll need to do little more than check the aligned point cloud for QA/QC purposes.

In other words, a NavVis mobile mapping system can do a lot more than speed up your scanning: it can transform your business.
