Abstract

A method for capturing building information includes capturing dimensions of a 360 degree image at a first location within a room of a building using a mobile device equipped with at least direction sensor and at least one motion sensor. The step of capturing dimensions is repeated within at least one additional room. The mobile device receives user input to connect the rooms to create a floor plan of the building and align the floor plans over each other to create a multi-level building map.
