[Update] Now supports batch area measurement for sloped and uneven surfaces

nat Inc nat has released new features for its 3D spatial scanning app, " Scanat."

  

In this update, we have significantly enhanced the area measurement functionality, adding support for calculating areas on sloped surfaces and batch area measurements for spaces (ceilings, walls, and floors) that include uneven surfaces such as columns.

Conventional area measurement functions were primarily designed for horizontal and vertical surfaces, so in complex spaces, it was necessary to measure each surface individually and then manually combine the results.

With this update, the system automatically recognizes the three-dimensional shape and slope of a space, allowing you to calculate the exact surface area in a single step without the need for manual adjustments or calculations.

This helps streamline measurement and quantity surveying tasks and improve safety in the following construction sites, where manual measurements and calculations used to be time-consuming.

  • Accurate quantity surveying for interior materials (such as wallpaper and paint) in construction and renovation projects
  • Identifying complex burn patterns extending from the floor to the ceiling during fire investigations conducted by fire departments and other agencies
  • Surveying of the current conditions of slopes and sloping ground that are difficult to access in civil engineering, landscaping, and roofing projects
  • Space measurement services for complex-shaped areas such as warehouses and factories
    (Simply capture scan data to get instant results via the app or on the web)

  

  

🔳Benefits of the New Area Measurement Feature

By eliminating the need for individual measurements of each surface and processing the entire space at once,
we simultaneously achieve significant reductions in the time required for tasks such as creating estimates and improvements in accuracy.

Accurate Measurement of Slopes and Inclined Surfaces:
By automatically recognizing non-flat, sloped surfaces—such as slopes, rooftops, and embankments—and calculating their actual surface area, this system enables accurate quantity assessment simply by scanning from a safe location, even in areas where direct measurement with a tape measure is dangerous or difficult. This ensures the safety of workers.

Supported platforms: Scanat feature is available on both Scanat (iOS) Scanat. ( Scanat: You can continue using Scanat Web with your current account.)
