Interactive 3D Virtual Tours and Property Scanning

Introducing SCANNE
SCANNE is a subsidiary of Scott Chandler Productions specializing in interactive 3D virtual tours, digital property scanning, floor plans, and building documentation.
Founded by husband-and-wife team Scott and Anne Chandler, the name combines “SC” from Scott Chandler with “ANNE” from Anne Chandler—creating SCANNE, a name that represents both its founders and their focus on professional 3D scanning.
Based in Reno, Nevada, SCANNE serves residential, commercial, and institutional clients throughout Nevada and California and is available for projects nationwide.
What Is a 3D Virtual Tour?
A 3D virtual tour is an interactive online walkthrough that lets you explore a home, business, or building as though you were there in person. Using 3D scanning technology, SCANNE captures a physical space and creates a realistic digital version you can visit from your computer, tablet, or smartphone.
Simply click or tap to move through rooms, look around in every direction, and see how the spaces connect. Unlike a video, you control where you go and what you view, at your own pace. A unique “dollhouse” view also lets you see the building’s overall layout from above.
3D virtual tours help buyers explore real estate, businesses showcase their spaces, and property owners and professionals review building layouts remotely. Available online whenever you need them, 3D property tours make it easier to understand a space before visiting in person.
Residential and Commercial Real Estate
Interactive 3D real estate tours help buyers, tenants, and investors explore properties before scheduling an in-person visit. Available online 24 hours a day, they offer a more complete understanding of a property than photographs alone.
Virtual tours can help real estate professionals market homes, apartments, offices, retail spaces, warehouses, and commercial facilities to both local and out-of-area clients. They can also reduce unnecessary visits and preserve a detailed visual record of the property.
Architecture, Construction, and Floor Plans
3D scanning for architecture and construction creates a detailed, interactive digital record of existing building conditions, helping architects, contractors, designers, and property owners plan projects with greater clarity. Virtual walkthroughs capture visible architectural features and spatial relationships, allowing teams to review a property remotely, coordinate renovations, and document construction progress. 3D building documentation can reduce unnecessary site visits and provide a shared visual reference for discussing design changes and installation requirements.
Floor plans derived from 3D scans help illustrate room dimensions, building layouts, and circulation paths for renovation planning, space utilization, and property management. Depending on project requirements, scan data can also support the preparation of CAD drawings and building information models, with additional processing and professional verification. Together, 3D virtual tours and floor plan services provide practical documentation throughout a building’s lifecycle; dimensions used for permitting, fabrication, or structural work should be independently verified.
Because the property can be revisited virtually, project teams can examine rooms, corridors, equipment locations, and visible building features without making repeated site visits. Scan data can also be used to create easy-to-read 2D floor plans for:
- Real estate listings
- Space and renovation planning
- Construction coordination
- Property management
- Fire and security system design
- General building documentation
When construction documents, engineering certification, code compliance, or survey-grade measurements are required, plans should be reviewed or prepared by an appropriately licensed professional. Scott Chandler Productions documented the 26,000-square-foot, three-story San Rafael, California City Hall that was utilized to generate current 2D blueprints used for the installation of the new fire system:

Fire, Security, and Emergency Planning
3D building scanning for fire, security, and emergency planning creates an interactive digital reference of a property’s interiors and accessible exterior areas. These virtual walkthroughs help fire departments, security teams, and emergency planners familiarize themselves with entrances, exits, stairwells, corridors, and room layouts before an incident occurs. When supplemented with verified locations of fire protection equipment, utility shutoffs, and designated hazards, 3D facility mapping supports pre-incident planning for schools, commercial buildings, hospitality properties, and public facilities.
3D virtual tours for emergency preparedness also support evacuation planning, personnel training, and coordination among building managers and first responders. Teams can remotely review access routes, discuss response scenarios, and identify areas requiring further inspection or security improvements. Securely maintained and regularly updated, these digital records provide a shared visual resource for planning responses to fires, security incidents, and natural disasters, alongside current floor plans, on-site inspections, and established emergency procedures.
Authorized emergency personnel can use a virtual walkthrough to become familiar with a facility before entering it. These models can support pre-incident planning and situational awareness but do not replace official emergency plans or verified site information.
Law-Enforcement Documentation
3D scanning for law enforcement creates a detailed, interactive digital record of crime scenes, accident locations, and building interiors and exteriors. By documenting visible evidence, room layouts, and spatial relationships at the time of capture, 3D crime scene documentation allows investigators to revisit a location virtually after the physical scene has changed or been released. These records can support case reviews, collaboration, and courtroom presentations by helping viewers understand where evidence was located within the surrounding environment.
Beyond investigations, 3D building mapping for public safety can help law enforcement agencies familiarize personnel with schools, government facilities, businesses, and other complex properties. Interactive walkthroughs provide a reference for entrances, exits, corridors, and access points, supporting emergency response planning, coordination, and scenario-based training. Captured records should be securely managed, with documented handling procedures when used as evidence; building models should be updated as layouts change.
Insurance and Property Documentation
A 3D home documentation tour creates an immersive, interactive visual record of your home’s interiors and accessible exterior areas before a disaster occurs. For homeowners in areas at high risk for wildfires, flooding, and other natural disasters, professional 3D property scanning captures room layouts, visible belongings, architectural details, finishes, and improvements. This detailed record preserves evidence of your property’s condition and helps you identify what was damaged or lost when preparing an insurance claim.
When paired with receipts, appraisals, and an updated home inventory, 3D virtual tours for insurance documentation can help insurance companies and adjusters assess losses, compare conditions before and after damage, and better understand repair or replacement needs. Keeping the tour and supporting records securely accessible off-site helps protect essential documentation if your home becomes inaccessible or is destroyed. Thorough documentation supports a clearer, more efficient claims process; coverage and payment remain subject to your insurance policy.
