# How to 3D map a fire scene with a drone

> Record the structure and surroundings after knockdown so investigators can return to the scene in 3D. Record one continuous drone video, upload it to SkyeBrowse, and open a measurable 3D model of the fire scene that you can annotate with standardized fire symbology and share.

## Outputs and measurements for fire scene documentation

### Public Safety Icons

Place NAPSG fire, EMS, and all-hazards symbols on the 3D model and manage them from the object tree.

### 3D Overlay

Merge interior and exterior models into one scene for a walkthrough from the street to the room of origin.

### Case Gallery

Pin multiple photos to a single annotation and page through them in a gallery scoped to that point.

### Walk Mode

Move through the model at eye level with WASD keys and an adjustable eye height.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can I combine interior and exterior fire scene models?

Yes. 3D Overlay stacks multiple models in the same viewer, such as an interior model on an exterior drone model, with no manual file switching.
