Scan Drafter is captured by your photographer during the same visit using Photogrammetry or LiDAR technology — no separate appointment needed. It’s fast and cost-effective but carries a margin of error of approximately ±10% and does not include square footage information. 

A professional floor plan is drafted separately, follows  ANSI guidelines, is accurate within 1/16th of an inch, and includes square footage calculations. If accuracy matters, the professional plan is the right choice.
