Capturing a large space with the Galois device can be highly effective when planned properly. To ensure a smooth capture process and high-quality results, we recommend the following best practices:
-
🗺️ Plan your point path in advance.
Pre-planning your route helps avoid dead ends and unnecessary backtracking, leading to a more efficient and seamless capture experience.

⏱️ Allocate enough time for large spaces.
Larger spaces typically require more capture points. Please be sure to set aside enough time so the process can be completed carefully, without rushing. -
🔢 Keep the number of points under 500 (recommended)
For Galois , it is recommended not to exceed 500 points per project. Staying within this limit helps ensure optimal processing performance. -
🧭 Add distinguishing features in scenarios with high similarity
In highly similarity scenarios (e.g., empty hallways, large open offices), consider placing small objects or temporary markers to help improve alignment accuracy. -
👥Consider co-capture if you're on a tight schedule.
If you're short on time, the co-capture feature allows multiple Galois devices to scan the space simultaneously, significantly speeding up the overall process.
By following these recommendations, you can capture large-scale environments more efficiently and achieve better alignment accuracy throughout the project.
