Laser Scanning

 

A few things laser scanning can do for you:

Surveying: High resolution topographic mapping can be easily captured with the scanner. The standard maps may not be accurate enough at small scales, so scanning the local terrain is the only solution. BIM: This buzzword has been around for a while and what is it? Building Information Modeling is making everything about the building construction phase useful and meaningful. Every step in the design process has important information about the construction. That's why you need to accurately document it using laser scanning. Historic Preservation: Create an accurate digital model of the site and buildings or monuments of value. This allows you to explore and preserve the artifacts for study at a later date. Also it allows documentation of complicated and hard to access sites and buildings. Industrial facilities: Just try to measure a working shop or factory floor with anything else. Laser scanning is a fast and efficient method to capture as-built conditions and is cost effective.
