Abstract

A system, method and architecture for network-assisted scanning of a surrounding environment. In one example arrangement, the system is operative for receiving one or more pieces of environmental data from a plurality of collection agents, each collection agent operating with a plurality of sensors configured to sense data relating to a respective location area of an environment, wherein the one or more environmental data is received responsive to determining that a portion of the environmental data is necessary for updating a consumption point report. Based on the received data, an updated consumption point report may be generated, which may be transmitted to a data consumption point.
