Laser Scanning – Get Better Data Faster

Laser scanning is a vital asset for the construction and architectural industries due to its high level of accuracy. By using advanced laser scanners, we can capture precise and detailed information about the structure or site in a fraction of the time it would take using traditional surveying methods.

We capture highly detailed point clouds of the site or object, providing precise measurements of shape, size, and spatial relationships. Our surveys suit a wide range of applications, including building information modelling (BIM), quality control, site documentation, and reverse engineering. Laser scanning is a highly valuable tool for both topographical and building surveys, providing superior accuracy, speed, and efficiency compared to traditional surveying methods.

Our 3D laser scanning services are the ideal solution for clients who require accurate and reliable data for their projects. The laser scanning process involves scanning the site or object, processing the data, and delivering the outputs to our clients. We use reliable equipment and software to capture and process the data into various outputs, including point clouds, 2D CAD drawings, 3D models, and BIM data.

      Diverse Applications of Laser Scanning

      • Design & Planning

        Laser scanning plays a crucial role in the renovation or construction process, providing essential data for renovation or construction projects.

      • Topographical Survey

        Laser scanning is a valuable tool in topographical surveying, providing accurate and detailed 3D terrain models. This data can be used for various purposes, including mapping of land, terrain, development, infrastructure planning, and management.

      • Facilities Management

        To support facilities management by providing accurate and detailed information on building systems and infrastructure.

      • 3D Modelling (BIM)

        Laser Scanning helps create accurate three-dimensional representations of any object surface using specialised software.

      • Virtual Tours & Walk-Throughs

        Laser scanning can create 3D models of real-world environments, including buildings, landscapes, and cultural heritage sites.

      • Quantity Surveying

        Laser scanning can be used in quantity surveying to accurately measure and quantify the materials required for a construction project. This information can be used for cost estimating, material procurement, and project planning.

      • Monitoring

        Laser scanners can be used to monitor various structures, such as bridges, dams, and buildings. They can monitor changes in the structure’s shape, size, deformation, damages, cracks, and location over time. This helps to detect potential structural issues before they become more severe and costly to repair.

      • Archaeology

        Laser scanners are regularly used in archaeology to create detailed and accurate 3D models of archaeological sites, structures, and artifacts. These models can be used for various purposes, including research and preservation. Laser scanning can also help to document and analyze features that may be difficult or impossible to access using traditional survey methods, such as complex or fragile structures or hard-to-reach areas within the site.

      • Gaming Industry

        Laser scanning helps to create games showing places from reality – for example, stadiums, cities, streets, and buildings, etc.

      • Movie Industry

        Laser scanning helps to create digital effects, virtual sets, and 3D animations. This involves using a laser scanner to create a highly detailed 3D model of a physical environment or object, which can be used in various ways.

        For example, laser scanning has been used to create highly detailed and realistic digital environments seen in movies like Avatar, where entire alien worlds were created using this technology.

        Also, laser scanning has been used to create visual effects for the Marvel Cinematic Universe, including the character of the Hulk.

      • Forensic Investigations

        Laser scanning is widely used in opencast mining to determine the volume of extracted resources and loose materials such as aggregates, coal, and ores. It is also used for inventory purposes, such as the inventory of coal heaps.

      • Volumetric Measurements

        Laser scanning is a powerful technology for accurate volumetric measurements. A laser scanner generates a detailed 3D point cloud of an object or area of interest, which can then be processed to create a solid 3D model. This model is then analyzed in specialized software to calculate the object’s volume or area.

        For example, Point Cab Origins software, which we use daily, provides this functionality.

      • How accurate is 3D Laser Scanning?

        The accuracy of 3D laser scanning depends on factors such as the type of scanner used, the scanning distance, and the complexity of the subject being scanned. Typically, 3D laser scanning can achieve accuracy within a few millimetres. The high precision of 3D laser scanning makes it a valuable tool construction industry.

      • Can 3D Laser Scanning be used for quality control?

        3D laser scanning can be used for quality control by comparing the point cloud data to the original design or specifications.

      • Is 3D Laser Scanning safe for humans and the environment?

        3D laser scanning is generally safe for humans and the environment. However, it is important to follow safety always.

      • What software do you use for processing 3D Laser Scan data?
