How to capture a larger space using Galois?
Capturing a large space with the Galois can be very effective when planned properly. To ensure high-quality results and a smooth capture process, we recommend the following best practices:
- Plan your point path in advance.
Pre-planning your route helps you avoid dead ends or backtracking, ensuring a more efficient and seamless capture experience. Maybe you want to know: How to plan the scanning path? - Allocate enough time for large spaces.
Larger spaces typically require more capture points. Please schedule sufficient time to complete the capture without rushing. - Keep the number of points under 500 (recommended)
For Galois , it is recommended to not exceed 500 points supports per project. - Add distinguishing features in scenarios with high similarity
In highly similarity scenarios (e.g., empty hallways, large open offices), consider placing small objects or markers to help improve alignment accuracy. - Consider co-capture if you're on a tight schedule.
If time is limited, using the co-capture feature allows multiple Galois devices to scan simultaneously, speeding up the overall process.
By following these tips, you can capture large-scale environments more efficiently and with better alignment accuracy.
