In the high-stakes world of fire investigation, the difference between a "closed" case and an "unsolved" one often comes down to the quality of scene documentation. Traditionally, this has meant hours spent in hazardous environments with tape measures, hand-sketched notes, and thousands of disconnected 2D photos.
Today, there is a better way. Asset Oracle 3D is proud to bring iGUIDE - the industry-leading solution - specifically to the UK and Ireland (UKI) market to revolutionise how fire investigators capture and analyse scenes.
Why iGUIDE is a Game-Changer for Fire Investigators
Fire scenes are inherently unstable and deteriorating. iGUIDE allows investigators to "freeze" a scene in time with unparalleled precision, creating a Forensic Digital Twin that can be revisited long after the physical site has been cleared or repaired.
1. Speed and Safety
Time is critical, especially when structural integrity is compromised. iGUIDE’s system can document a standard-sized property in as little as 20 minutes. This minimises the time investigators spend in potentially dangerous environments while ensuring no detail is missed.
2. LiDAR-Accurate Documentation
Unlike photo-only solutions, iGUIDE utilises built-in LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) technology. This provides measurements accurate to within 1cm, allowing for the generation of professional, court-ready 2D and 3D floor plans.
3. "Real-Time" Evidence Tagging
While scanning, investigators can drop Real-Time Tags directly into the 3D space. This allows you to link close-up photos of electrical components, accelerant pour patterns, or debris samples directly to their exact geographic location within the building.
4. Courtroom-Ready Clarity
Presenting complex fire dynamics to a jury or insurance adjuster can be challenging. iGUIDE provides an immersive walkthrough that allows stakeholders to virtually "walk through" the scene. This spatial context makes it far easier to explain the path of fire spread and the point of origin.
"iGUIDE doesn't just take pictures; it captures the entire context of the fire. It turns a collection of evidence into a coherent story that stands up to scrutiny."
Bringing the Future of Forensics to the UKI
Asset Oracle 3D is dedicated to providing UK-based forensic professionals with the tools they need to stay at the forefront of technology. By bringing iGUIDE to the UK and Ireland, we are providing local support, training, and expertise to help fire services and private investigators transition from manual sketches to digital precision.
Whether you are investigating a domestic incident or a large-scale commercial loss, the iGUIDE system—supported by Asset Oracle 3D—ensures your findings are backed by the most robust spatial data available.
See it in Action: UK-AFI 2026
We are thrilled to announce that Asset Oracle 3D will be showcasing iGUIDE at the UK-AFI AGM & ATC 2026: "Fires, Forensics and Findings."
The event takes place at The Milner, York, on the 26th and 27th of January 2026.
This is a fantastic opportunity to:
-
Get hands-on with the iGUIDE hardware.
-
Meet the team!
-
See live demonstrations of forensic digital twins.
-
Discuss your specific needs with our UKI experts.
Join Us in York!
While the conference is currently sold out, we encourage those on the waiting list or attending to stop by and see us. If you can’t make it, don’t worry-you can book a private demonstration today.
