Do I need to buy any software for the program run?

No, the 3D scenario is installed like a videogame. It is only necessary to run the setup. The software that processes the laser scan and builds the 3D model is constantly updated by Infinite Foundry. The customer can pay those updates through an annual contract that also includes technical support.

How the scenarios are updated? Do we need to call Infinite Foundry whenever we change the factory?

The scenarios are updated by re-scan the area that was changed, and that laser scan can be done for the customer. That change is then updated in the previous 3D model. The customer can rent the laser scan equipment to Infinite Foundry.
