3-D Laser Scanning

3-D Laser scanning is of increasing interest to our clients. With this technology, we can measure, visualize and model structures and sites with an unprecedented combination of speed, completeness and accuracy. Utilizing the Leica HDS6000 and Leica ScanStation 2 we can scan complete surface geometries of exposed structures and sites and remotely capture the data in minutes in the form of dense, comprehensive “3-D point clouds” ready for immediate use. These 3-D point clouds are a valuable new client deliverable as they represent a highly detailed, instantaneous 3-D virtual model, complete with survey grade measurements. Integrated software and free viewers let you use the 3-D point clouds to rotate and fly around an existing structure or site to view it from any perspective and to measure between any two points. Point cloud data can be exported into popular CAD software and used to create wire meshes, 2-D drawings and 3-D Building Information Models.
