How It Works

The NavLive scanner makes it quick and easy to capture accurate building measurements in minutes.

Accurately capture existing site conditions in a single walk-through with the NavLive Scanner. As you move through the site, 2D floor plans and a registered 3D point cloud are created in real time, with data ready shortly after upload.

Access all your NavLive scans from any device through the Portal. Review floor plans, point clouds, and imagery in one workspace, make quick edits where needed, and get your data ready for BIM.

Import NavLive point clouds directly into tools like Revit, AutoCAD, and SketchUp. Work over accurate as-built data to produce drawings faster, with fewer site visits and less rework.
