Learn how to create a professional-grade floor plan on your iPhone Pro or iPad Pro using Polycam’s floor plan tool. In this tutorial, we walk through the full workflow — from LiDAR scan setup to editing and export — so you can go from empty room to shareable deliverable in under 15 minutes.

What’s covered:

* How to set up and run a LiDAR scan for accurate floor plan generation
* On-device vs. cloud processing — which to use and when
* Editing walls, fixtures, and room labels in the Floor Plan Editor
* Exporting in PDF, DXF, PNG, SVG, and CSV formats

Whether you’re an architect capturing as-built drawings, a real estate professional documenting a listing, or a contractor verifying site dimensions, Polycam turns your iPhone into a precision floor plan tool.

What you’ll need:

iPhone Pro or iPad Pro (2020 or later) + Polycam app. Floor plan editing and exports require a Business plan.

For decades, adjusters have been documenting loss scenes with a notepad and a tape measure.

Polycam captures the entire scene in a single walk-through. Every room, every burn pattern, every dimension, locked in before anything gets touched.

The floor plan generates automatically from the scan and exports directly into Xactimate. No return visits. No hand sketching.

Polycam now exports ESX files directly from 3D scans, meaning your mobile scan goes straight into Xactimate without re-entering a single measurement.

For insurance adjusters and restoration teams managing high claim volumes, that’s hours back per week.

Scan → ESX → Xactimate. $19 per export. Enterprise bulk pricing available for high-volume teams.

The extra few minutes you put in now can save you a trip back to the site.

Wyatt walks through everything you need to know to get a great scan in Space Mode, from prep (open your doors, charge your phone) to technique (move slowly, hug the walls, fill in every angle) to the final output: 3D floor plan, auto-measurements, and exports for AutoCAD, Revit, SketchUp, and more.
