Current 3D mapping pipelines generally assume static environments, which limits their ability to accurately capture and reconstruct moving objects. To address this limitation, we introduce the novel task of active mapping of moving objects, in which a mapping agent must plan its trajectory while compensating for the object's motion. Our approach, Paparazzo, provides a learning-free solution that robustly predicts the target's trajectory and identifies the most informative viewpoints from which to observe it, to plan its own path. We also contribute a comprehensive benchmark designed for this new task. Through extensive experiments, we show that Paparazzo significantly improves 3D reconstruction completeness and accuracy compared to several strong baselines, marking an important step toward dynamic scene understanding.

Active mapping aims to determine how an agent should move to efficiently reconstruct an unknown environment. Most existing approaches rely on greedy next-best-view prediction, resulting in inefficient exploration and incomplete scene reconstruction. To address this limitation, we introduce MAGICIAN, a novel long-term planning framework that maximizes accumulated surface coverage gain through Imagined Gaussians, a scene representation derived from a pre-trained occupancy network with strong structural priors. This representation enables efficient computation of coverage gain for any novel viewpoint via fast volumetric rendering, allowing its integration into a tree-search algorithm for long-horizon planning. We update Imagined Gaussians and refine the planned trajectory in a closed-loop manner. Our method achieves state-of-the-art performance across indoor and outdoor benchmarks with varying action spaces, demonstrating the critical advantage of long-term planning in active mapping.
