Based in Halifax, Nova Scotia, and led by co-founders Colin Gillis, CEO, and Dan MacIntosh, COO, we work with a wide range of industry professionals, including building owners, developers, property managers, engineering firms, general contractors and architects, providing them with specialized services and solutions in three key areas.

Our services

Smarter Spaces’ team of professionals uses mobile 2D and 3D laser scanning technology, merged with advanced data tools, to capture the outside and inside of any structure. This gives clients the true measurements of their property and the potential to reduce renovation costs, while also maximizing occupancy returns.

Smarter Spaces’ world-class 3D virtual tours give clients an interactive and immersive experience they can use to showcase their space and share with others. This technology is mobile and desktop friendly, making it accessible and easy to navigate.

We also specialize in emergency planning, including fire safety plans, pre-construction fire safety plans and evacuation mapping. A member of the National Fire Protection Association, Smarter Spaces follows the National Fire Code and National Building Code of Canada. Clients are given peace of mind knowing their safety plans are up to date and in expert hands.
