Free software can capture 9 million dimensionally-accurate points in space with a single scan, or roughly 2,000sqft
Architectural firm Nabney Plans is using scans captured with Sitescape in ArchiCAD as a reference for the building model
SiteScape, the iOS app that offers free 3D scanning to anyone with a LiDAR-equipped iPhone or iPad, has come out of beta and is now available in the App Store.
This is just the start for the mobile mapping startup, that aims to lower the point of entry for reality capture with point clouds in the AEC sector by making LiDAR more accessible for workflows including progress monitoring, documentation, and remote site access/collaboration.

The free software allows users to capture 9 million points in space with a single scan, or roughly 2,000sqft, for free. Multiple scans can be captured back to back and then registered into one continuous model.
