3D Laser Scanning Services in Minnesota

GPRS provided critical dimensional verification to ensure a flawless installation, reduce delays, clashes, and other unforeseen challenges for the project team

GPRS partnered with two renewable energy companies constructing an offshore wind farm to verify that the prefabricated components of several wind turbines met the specified design requirements

GPRS aids renewable energy projects with precise as-built data for design, construction, and maintenance. From solar panel installation to wind farm construction, we deliver accurate data for your project needs. 3D laser scanning captured complete and accurate dimensional information to verify that the prefabricated components were in tolerance for the design drawings Precast concrete foundations were laser scanned and a CAD comparison was performed to confirm that the dimensions matched the design planSubstation topside steel platforms were laser scanned to provide accurate as-built dimensions of all three levels and report the maximum outside diameter of the structure The Mapping & Modeling Team delivered 2D CAD drawings and a 3D BIM model, detailing the as-built dimensions and deviation between the design model and actual component 3D laser scanning captured complete and accurate dimensional information to verify that the prefabricated components were in tolerance for the design drawingsPrecast concrete foundations were laser scanned and a CAD comparison was performed to confirm that the dimensions matched the design planSubstation topside steel platforms were laser scanned to provide accurate as-built dimensions of all three levels and report the maximum outside diameter of the structureThe Mapping & Modeling Team delivered 2D CAD drawings and a 3D BIM model, detailing the as-built dimensions and deviation between the design model and actual component

The construction of a wind turbine required shipping prefabricated components on a vessel out to sea and using a crane to assemble Verification of the prefabricated component measurements within tolerance of the design drawings ensured a flawless installation Unique construction conditions meant there was no time to troubleshoot installation problems or add additional site visits and time at sea

The 17,000 s.f. golf club, including pro shop, locker rooms, and restaurant areas were all 3D scanned in a single day with minimal operational interruption to provide 1/4" accurate structural & architectural models

GPRS 3D Laser Scanning provides existing conditions documentation to Vanderbilt University's Legends Golf Club

Vanderbilt Legends Golf Club renovations aimed for "elite facility" status, aided by GPRS 3D Laser Scanning and Mapping & Modeling Services

Vanderbilt University planned an expansion and renovations of its Legends Golf Club to propel it to "elite facility" statusThe architect on the project needed accurate existing conditions documentation to develop a design plan and solicit bids from construction companiesThe club management required that any work be completed with minimal operational interference GPRS 3D laser scanned the two-story, 17,000 s.f. clubhouse in one day with the Leica RTC360An intensity map point cloud file, 2D CAD drawings, and a Revit 3D model were all delivered to the architect via GPRS Mapping & Modeling TeamDocumenting architectural elements, such as the building envelope, walls, windows, doors, ceilings, exposed columns, beams, and posts with 2-4mm accuracy was critical to the renovation effort Capturing real-time existing conditions prior to designing the expansion & renovation reduced reworks, waste, and mistakesThe 1/4" accuracy provided by the architectural and structural model allowed for extremely detailed plans to be delivered to the contractorThe building renovations created a state-of-the-art facility for the team, the membership, and to aid in recruitment efforts

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.
