3D Laser Scanning Services in Wyoming

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.

3D Laser Scanning

GPRS was tasked with 3D laser scanning the existing conditions of this $417 million Wastewater Treatment Plant and producing an LOD 350 Revit model to plan for future expansion.

59 acres and 27 buildings were 3D laser scanned to provide complete as-built documentation of a Colorado Wastewater Treatment Plant. This client is the largest water reclamation provider in the Rocky Mountain West, serving 1.8 million people in a 715 square-mile area. GPRS was tasked with 3D laser scanning the existing conditions of this $417 million facility and producing an LOD 350 Revit model to assist with on-going operations and plan for future expansion.

THE BOTTOM LINE GPRS was tasked with 3D laser scanning the existing conditions of this $417 million Wastewater Treatment Plant and producing an LOD 350 Revit model to plan for future expansion. INDUSTRY Wastewater Treatment Plant SERVICE 3D Laser Scanning, Mapping & Modeling LOCATION Denver, Colorado PROJECT APPLICATION GPRS specializes in BIM and VDC management for wastewater treatment plants, utilizing 3D laser scanning technology to create detailed digital models. Task 59 acres and 27 buildings were 3D laser scanned to provide complete as-built documentation of a Colorado Wastewater Treatment Plant. This client is the largest water reclamation provider in the Rocky Mountain West, serving 1.8 million people in a 715 square-mile area. GPRS was tasked with 3D laser scanning the existing conditions of this $417 million facility and producing an LOD 350 Revit model to assist with on-going operations and plan for future expansion. PROBLEM The client needed the fastest way to document 59 acres and 27 buildings with the highest level of quality. Each building was unique and needed to be documented and modeled to plan for expansion, including pumping stations, sludge digester, thickener, tank reclamation, purification systems, aeration, primary and secondary settling, maintenance facilities and visitor center. The client had their own laser scanner, but did not have the manpower and resources to complete the project timely. Solution GPRS has a highly integrated and highly motivated team of laser scanning professionals. 59 acres of campus was 3D laser scanned in a 4-month period, sometimes with up to 10 Project Managers on site at one time. GPRS Project Managers captured 2,990 color scans and an in-house team of engineers produced an LOD 350 Revit model of the interior and exterior of 27 buildings of a 59 Acre Wastewater Treatment Plant including architectural and structural details, MEP and process piping ½" and above, valves, flanges, equipment detail and location, stairwells, railings, closets, restrooms and janitor rooms. The client also requested EdgeWise files, so the GPRS Mapping & Modeling Team modeled all piping, valves, flanges, ducts, conduit and framing and organized it in layers in accordance with the client’s naming conventions for location, plant process and material specifications. The client also used the BIM model to determine if the existing drawings reflected actual site conditions. Benefits 3D laser scanning enables clients to add, modify, validate and document their design digitally. 3D laser scanning allowed the plant to have a full scope of the existing conditions before renovations were made to the facility.

GPRS 3D laser scanning services captured every inch of a roughly 219,000-square-foot soft drink production facility, so that a digital twin of the space could be created to enable safe and efficient operations and maintenance.

Facility managers at a soft drink production facility in Tennessee needed accurate existing conditions documentation of their entire plant and the surrounding grounds to aid with future planning and possible renovations.
