What does it do?

Precise floor plans directly from 3D point clouds

The 3D floor plan tool focuses on creating precise floor plans directly from 3D point clouds. Traditionally, surveyors had to manually trace floor outlines and adjust linework—a time-consuming and error-prone process. With Pointorama’s 3D floor plan tool, this process is fully automated.

Position a plane within the 3D scan, and the tool automatically detects and highlights walls, structural elements, and other key features in the point cloud. It then automatically generates clear, vectorized floor plans. Users can visualize the scan in 3D, define boundaries by selecting specific walls, floors, or sections within the scan, and let the software handle the rest. This approach ensures unparalleled accuracy, even for complex indoor environments or sloped surfaces.

Why it’s better

Why is it better than existing solutions?

Current market solutions often require users to manually trace over 2D section views or orthophotos, making the process slow and prone to errors. Many tools only generate rough outlines, which require extensive manual adjustments. In contrast, Pointorama’s 3D floor plan tool creates ready-to-use, precise vector plans from point clouds with minimal input.

Unlike other systems, Pointorama’s tool can handle flat, sloped, and multi-level surfaces with the same level of precision. Its 3D visualization ensures users can see exactly how the floor plan is being generated, providing greater confidence in the final output. This seamless workflow eliminates the need for costly rework, accelerates project timelines, and enhances overall accuracy.
