Business Case: Advanced Building Documentation in Retail

Problem:

Large Retailer acquired 34 new brick and mortar locations.  The new locations were spread all across the east coast of the US and they had little to no documentation about the condition, layout, etc. of the buildings.  They needed to understand what they had bought, how to redesign the spaces and the level of effort that was going to be required to do so.   

Summary:

IndoorVu deployed to the sites of the newly acquired buildings and within 14 days had collected Intelligent Imagery for all the stores, in a total of over 2.4 million square feet across 5 different states.  Within 2 months from the data collection effort, IndoorVu created complete 3D models of all the buildings which included site plans, full ceiling plans, walk path details and 360-degree imagery of every space in every building.  The data was all organized by building, floor and room and delivered via IV Cloud and IV Portal.

Result:

The retailer was able to share this new building data with all stakeholders in their redesign and construction process via a simple web application.  Beyond just having floor and ceiling plans, the 360 Imagery enabled designers, store planners, and store managers to better understand and collaborate throughout the entire process of updating these newly acquired sites.  IndoorVu saved the retailer time, money and significant iterations on design and development.
