[Case Study] How to Use nat

Scanat solves a wide range of challenges faced by professionals in the construction, real estate brokerage, and moving industries.
Do you encounter any of the following challenges in your work?

  • Construction

    It's difficult to secure the staff needed for site surveys

    I don't know where in the site the photo was taken

    This can lead to omissions in measurements or photography

  • Real Estate Brokerage

    There aren't enough photos, so guests can't get a sense of what the room looks like

    Viewing multiple properties takes too much time, and it’s difficult to coordinate schedules with clients

    We can't view the unit because it's still occupied, so we can't close the deal

  • Moving

    It's difficult to schedule an appointment for an appraisal visit

    People don't like home visits

    We want to reduce the number of staff assigned to site inspections and estimates and increase the number of staff assigned to transportation operations.

Construction

Securing personnel for site surveys

nat, you can use the camera on your iPad or iPhone to take photos of the room you want to survey and generate 3D data. You can easily measure ceiling heights and beam sizes on-site by yourself, without the need for a tape measure or a stepladder.

Reducing the burden of construction management and minimizing communication errors

Once the 3D model is created, everyone involved can communicate while viewing it, making it possible to convey exactly where everything is, just as if they were actually on site. 

Prevent missed measurements, forgotten photos, etc.

By saving the 3D models you create, you can review them or take measurements as many times as you like later on, so you won’t have to return to the site just because you missed measuring something like protrusions, recesses, or outlet locations.

Real Estate Brokerage

We can show you more properties

For customers visiting our showroom, we can show them 3D models nat of floor plans, allowing us to showcase numerous units on the spot without needing to take them on a site visit. Since this makes it easier for customers to visualize the units, they can even sign a lease without visiting the property.

Reducing travel time and costs for property viewings

By allowing customers to view 3D models in-store, the need to visit the property in person is minimized, reducing the travel time and labor costs associated with property viewings. You can then allocate the time saved to other tasks, such as serving other customers.

Preventing Forgotten Room Photos and Missed Measurements

By saving the 3D model you’ve created, you can review it and take measurements as many times as you like later on, allowing you to simulate how furniture will look in the space. You won’t need to visit the property again to check for protrusions, recesses, storage spaces, or outlet locations.

Moving

Securing staff for site visits and estimates

Since even staff with limited experience or customers themselves can scan rooms to create 3D models, we can complete site surveys and provide estimates without having to dispatch one of our few on-site specialists.

Keep appointment scheduling to a minimum

For customers who are too busy to schedule an appointment during the day, we can send them an iPad so they can take photos and create 3D models themselves. Once the 3D data is sent to us, we can complete the inspection of their shipment over the phone.

Reducing instances of forgotten baggage and communication errors

By saving the 3D models you create, you can review them as many times as you like later on and remeasure dimensions. Since you can always view the same data during meetings with clients, communication errors are avoided.
