The system includes a mobile mapping device having a camera; a plan database configured to store 2-D floor plans; and a processor configured to integrate a selected floor plan from the plan database with object data received from the mobile mapping device to create an interactable 3-D spatial mapping of an interior portion of a structure so that one or more objects are moveable relative to a surrounding environment within the 3-D spatial mapping. The processor is configured to recognise objects from an image from the camera and anchor the recognised object within the interactable 3-D spatial mapping. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A system for indoor spatial mapping, comprising: a mobile mapping device having a camera; a plan database configured to store 2-D floor plans; and a processor configured to integrate a selected floor plan from said plan database with object data received from said mobile mapping device to create an interactable 3-D spatial mapping of an interior portion of a structure so that one or more objects are moveable relative to a surrounding environment within the 3-D spatial mapping, said processor being configured to digitally recognise said moveable objects from an image from said camera and spatially anchor the recognised moveable object within the interactable 3-D spatial mapping. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the object data includes an item of emergency equipment. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The system of claim 2, wherein the emergency equipment includes at least one of a fire extinguisher or a hose reel. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein said mobile mapping device is configured to tag predetermined objects for anchoring within the interactable 3-D spatial mapping. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, further comprising a virtual reality headset configured to receive a data stream from said processor to render the 3-D spatial mapping. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein said processor is configured to deliver a data stream to a mobile communications device having a camera, the data stream causing the mobile communications device to display real-time surroundings in an augmented reality manner when positioned inside the structure. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein said processor is configured with image recognition technology. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein said processor is configured to anchor into the 2-D floor plan a 3-D object tag associated with a 2-D floor plan symbol. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the interactable 3-D spatial mapping is configured to simulate smoke density. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the recognised objects are tagged as either interactable or not interactable. ### Claim 11 (depends on 10) The system of claim 10, wherein recognised objects tagged as interactable include at least one of a fire extinguisher and a hose reel. ### Claim 12 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the interactable 3-D spatial mapping is displayable only on a mobile communications device or virtual reality headset. ### Claim 13 A method for generating an indoor spatial mapping, comprising: storing a 2-D floor plan in a floor plan database; digitally tagging reference points which includes at least one item of emergency equipment in a level of a structure; anchoring the at least one tagged item of emergency equipment to the 2-D floor plan; and rendering a 3-D floor plan with at least one anchored item of emergency equipment, the anchored emergency equipment being interactable within the 3-D floor plan, the at least one item of emergency equipment being tagged as an interactable 3-D object based on a recognised symbol contained in the 2-D floor plan. ### Claim 14 (depends on 13) The method of claim 13, wherein the rendering of the 3-D floor plan includes delivering the 3-D floor plan in an augmented reality format. ### Claim 15 (depends on 13) The method of claim 13, wherein the rendering of the 3-D floor plan includes delivering the 3-D floor plan in virtual reality format to a virtual reality headset. ### Claim 16 (depends on 13) The method of claim 13, further including digitally altering the 3-D floor plan to incorporate a smoke density level. ### Claim 17 (depends on 13) The method of claim 13, wherein the at least one item of emergency equipment includes a fire extinguisher. ### Claim 18 (depends on 13) The method of claim 13, wherein at least one of the reference points is associated with an entryway, the reference point associated with the entryway being tagged with local coordinate data. ### Claim 19 (depends on 13) The method of claim 13, wherein at least one of the reference points is associated with an entryway, the reference point associated with the entryway being tagged with geographical coordinate data.
