## What makes our capture unit unique ?

### Versatility

Our mobile mapping units capture the data needed to build digital twins, generate asset inventories, and perform precise measurements—distances, areas, heights, clearances, and offsets between assets.

![Regle2](https://4953000.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hub/4953000/hubfs/Regle2.png?width=300&name=Regle2.png)

### Simplicity

They operate freely, with no road closures, enabling fast and safe surveys without disrupting traffic.
