Interior Scanning & Floor Plans
Survey-grade precision inside any building, in hours, not days.
Accurate floor plans and 3D models without ladders or tape measures. Our Xgrids Lixel K2 handheld LiDAR captures every room and dimension with centimetre-level accuracy.
Spatial Intelligence
Quote against reality, not drawings.
Builders pricing a renovation or fit-out often work from drawings decades out of date, or none at all. Every unknown becomes a contingency, and every contingency costs the client. A K2 scan gives every bidder the same measured data: floor areas, ceiling heights, wall thicknesses and doorway widths, all in a 3D model they can measure from directly.
What we offer
How it works
A clear process, start to finish.
- 01
Scan
We walk the space with the K2, capturing true-colour LiDAR in real time.
- 02
Process
The point cloud is registered and floor plans are extracted.
- 03
Deliver
Plans, models and a viewer link your whole team can measure from.
What you receive
