Site assessment

Plan projects with confidence using up-to-date site information. Provide teams with digital views of sites – accessible anytime, from anywhere.

Site assessments are essential for visually and geometrically understanding the existing conditions of projects and mitigating risks – especially in as-built environments and factory planning.

Explore the possibilities

Analyze and document existing conditions with 2D floor plans and 360° panoramas

Combine point cloud data with high-resolution 360° panoramic images and 2D floor maps to virtually examine site conditions. Make annotations, take measurements, and share findings with teams. Create structured documentation, such as factory layouts, directly in NavVis IVION to reliably plan and report on site assessments and make informed decisions.

Measure precisely, categorize, and export data for planning and documentation

Assess and document as-is conditions with precision. Use 2D maps and 360° panoramas to mark, measure, and categorize areas, such as surface runoff zones. Then, export the data as a .csv, .dxf, or .pdf file. Generate structured reports, evaluate boundary conditions, and provide reliable input for CAD/BIM tools used in design, planning, or floor space optimization projects.

Share insights instantly with deep linking

Eliminate ambiguity in reporting and speed up decision-making by sharing specific viewpoints, measurements, or points of interest (POIs) through deep links. Everyone, from on-site teams to remote stakeholders, can access the same visual context instantly, ensuring clear, actionable communication and minimizing delays.

Document and share key findings with points of interest (POIs)

Capture geotagged annotations directly on digital sites, including text, images, documents, videos, and measurement data. POIs allow you to attach relevant information to specific locations, making it easy to document, organize, and share field observations. Stakeholders can access insights via direct links — ensuring clarity, traceability, and company-wide knowledge sharing.

90% less site visits for engineering teams
25% reduction in time spent looking for spatial project data
10% fewer late-stage design changes

“Initially, we faced the challenge of not being able to access the plant virtually, which required us to conduct up to three field investigations per week. However, after implementing NavVis IVION, we successfully reduced these site visits to just once a week, and eventually, we eliminated the need for on-site travel altogether.”
