3D Laser Scanning Services in Indiana

GPRS captured point cloud data to generate a 3D as-built model from which the client could take measurements and locate key features that could be affected by the seating renovation.

GPRS laser scanned a historic theater, including the main floor, three balcony levels, and box seats to generate a 3D Revit model for seating renovations. The target objects of data acquisition were structural features, including exposed columns and beams; and the architectural envelope of the audience area, including walls, floors, ceilings, doors, openings, railings, seats, floor, and lighting.

GPRS 3D laser scanned a historic theatre to generate a 3D Revit model for seating renovations. Case Study: 3D Laser Scanning A Theatre To Generate A 3D Model Location: Philadelphia, PA Task: GPRS laser scanned a historic theater, including the main floor, three balcony levels and box seats to generate a 3D Revit model for seating renovations. The target objects of data acquisition were structural features, including exposed columns and beams; and the architectural envelope of the audience area, including walls, floors, ceilings, doors, openings, railings, seats, floor and lighting. Problem: The client did not have accurate as-builts to plan and layout the new seating and understand the grade of the main floor and balconies. Manually measuring for this would have been time consuming and less accurate. Solution: 3D laser scanning will provide the client precise, as-built documentation of the historic theater, including floor slope, balcony and ceiling heights. GPRS captured point cloud data to generate a 3D as-built model from which the client could take measurements and locate key features that could be affected by the seating renovation. Benefits: GPRS’ in-house CAD technicians created a 3D Revit model for the client. Revit families were created for all the varying features so that each layer could be selected or de-selected depending on which portion of the model was being analyzed by the client. Accurate data facilitates timely and cost-efficient decisions. The 3D model will be crucial to plan for enhancements that are made to the space. This model could further be used to study the room acoustics and how adding/removing/changing objects would impact the reflection of sound.

3D Laser Scanning

The use of laser scan technology has resulted in accurate and efficient data collection, precise as-built documentation, cost savings due to improved design accuracy, and improved project visualization and collaboration.

A pharmaceutical company was installing some new equipment in various areas of the facility. Existing machinery was being removed, new machinery was being installed and MEP piping was being re-routed throughout the area. GPRS provided laser scanning services to collect point cloud data on four levels and generate a 3D model for the client. Before starting renovations of this existing facility, the client desired to document existing conditions to plan layout and process flow upgrades.

The use of laser scan technology has resulted in accurate and efficient data collection, true as built documentation, cost savings due to improved design accuracy, and improved project visualization and collaboration.

Location: Social Circle, GA Project Manager Insight: “The cost of laser scanning and modeling should easily be offset by the cost savings from reduced re-work during the facility renovations.” Andy Foshee, TruePoint Southeast Regional Manager. Task: A pharmaceutical company was installing some new equipment in various areas of the facility. Existing machinery was being removed, new machinery was being installed and MEP piping was being re-routed throughout the area. TruePoint provided laser scanning services to collect point cloud data on four levels and generate a 3D model for the client. Before starting renovations of this existing facility, the client desired to document existing conditions and plan layout and process flow upgrades. Challenge: Upgrading existing pharmaceutical manufacturing sites can be challenging. The space available is restricted and bringing in new equipment is sometimes tricky. Our client needed to make several tie-ins and requested a Revit model for planning. Solution: Using the Leica P50 ScanStation, TruePoint captured structural features, MEP piping and equipment ½ inch and above. An LOD 300 Revit model was requested to ensure more accurate, efficient and cost-effective execution of the project. With planning, the client was able to install the new machinery and re-route piping without any field rework. This also resulted in reduced downtime and significant savings by returning the facility to production quickly. Deliverable: TruePoint delivered a point cloud .rcp file, JetStream Viewer file and an LOD 300 Revit model to the client. TruePoint's team of CAD technicians modeled the following details for the client: Pipe - 72,000 linear feet Conduit - 75,000 linear feet Duct - 11,000 linear feet Pipe modeled down to 1/2 inch in diameter. Added Value: The use of laser scan technology has resulted in accurate and efficient data collection, true as built documentation, cost savings due to improved design accuracy, and improved project visualization and collaboration.

3D Laser Scanning

With 3D laser scanning, the client avoided the costs of renting a lift, manually measuring the façade, and the potential of inaccurate and incomplete data.

This client needed to do some rehabilitation on a historic cathedral in Denver, Colorado. After experiencing 100 years of weather in Denver, the cathedral had damage to the exterior stonework. GPRS laser scanned the exterior front façade of the historic cathedral and provided the client with 2D drawings.

GPRS worked quickly to define the scope of work, document a proposal, provide 3D laser scanning services and deliver a 2D drawing for this project.

Case Study: Historic Cathedral Needs 3D Laser Scanning Of Front Façade Location: Denver, Colorado Task: This client needed to do some rehabilitation on a historic cathedral in Denver, Colorado. After experiencing 100 years of weather in Denver, the cathedral had damage to the exterior stonework. GPRS laser scanned the exterior front façade of the historic cathedral and provided the client with 2D drawings. Problem: Prior to beginning work, the client needed accurate drawings to document the locations of stonework that needed maintenance. The client was pressed for time and needed an immediate turnaround for 3D laser scanning services and a 2D drawing. They also had a minimal budget for this project. Solution: GPRS worked quickly to define the scope of work, document a proposal, provide 3D laser scanning services and deliver a 2D drawing for this project. The Project Manager was able to scan the exterior façade within a few hours. GPRS quickly captured the entire front facade from the ground without the need for a lift. The Leica C10 laser scanner was used, whose range exceeds 900 feet and possesses accuracy that is sub-centimeter, making 3D laser scanning a perfect option. GPRS supplied the client with 2D elevations of the plotted point cloud so they could document the exterior stone damage while on site. Benefits: The client avoided the costs of renting a lift, manually measuring the facade and the potential of inaccurate or incomplete data. GPRS offers an extensive team of laser scanning professionals, including Engineers and Architects, to provide a deliverable that is accurate, cost-efficient and timely.
