3D laser scanning is the most effective solution for documenting the existing conditions of any environment. The technology produces highly accurate as-built digital measurements and models quickly and easily for use in construction and engineering projects.
3D laser scanners use LiDAR technology to capture millions of data points of a project site. Scans are taken in multiple positions from varying viewpoints and processed into a point cloud. CAD technicians use the point cloud to develop 2D drawings and 3D models to expedite analysis, design planning, prefabrication, and facility modifications.
What Are the Benefits of 3D Laser Scanning?
- Fast, Accurate Data Collection: A single laser scan captures millions of 3D data points per second, providing incredibly rich detail of a building or project site. Datasets are dimensionally accurate, measurable and shareable, expediting project planning and execution.
- Eliminates Revisits and Disruption: Sites are captured in high detail the first time, eliminating the need for return visits. High speed data collection expedites projects that require minimal disruption.
- Reduces Costs and Change Orders: Accurate design plans are produced from the start expediting field work and reducing change orders, delays and costs.
- Safe and Non-Contact: 3D laser scanners collect data on tripods from a distance in hard-to-reach or hazardous locations, keeping workers out of harm’s way. The non-intrusive nature keeps historic sites and artifacts untouched.
- Improves Communication: Communication is improved, teams can discuss plans while each has access to the same information, creating a more dynamic working environment.
Why Use GPRS 3D Laser Scanning Services?
3D laser scanning is fast, accurate and reliable. Three-dimensional data provides exact measurements of sites with a level of confidence and speed not possible with traditional tools. There’s no better way to drive decision making than to have accurate and intelligent, real-time data.
GPRS 3D Laser Scanning Services provide 2-4mm accuracy by capturing 2 million data points per second, for efficient planning, design, and construction. And our in-house Mapping & Modeling Team can export your GPR utility locates & concrete scans, 3D laser & photogrammetry data, and video pipe inspection reports to create accurate existing condition as-builts – above and below ground – to give you the accurate information you need in a format you can easily work with and share to keep your project on time, on budget, and safe.
From skyscrapers to sewer lines, GPRS Intelligently Visualizes The Built World® to keep your projects on time, on budget, and safe.
