Uses of Scan Data
  
The use of scan data is only limited by the imagination of the user. This may be a bold statement, but having successfully used this technique over the last four years, we continue to find new applications including:
  • Archive Data – a snapshot in time for records (building sites or heritage buildings)
  • Visualisations - of complex 3D structures, 3D models for design or sighting issues, rights to light or simply to impress a client and get the desired funding
  • Highly Detailed surveys – 3D wireframe or 3D plans of complex beams, structures, buildings, elevations.
  • Inaccessible areas – no direct access or health and & safety risk areas.
  • Projects with poorly defined or changeable scope
  • Limited time to gather data or produce deliverables. A 3D point cloud model can be issued the next day if required.
  • Monitoring change & movement
  • Volumes and quantity surveying applications
  • Creation of cross sections through tunnels and rock cuttings, allowing flexibility to create extra sections wherever required

On the majority of projects, a combination of survey tools and techniques are utilised to provide the best solution – not just laser scanning. We are here to offer advice on the right solutions, acting in our client’s best interest; not to provide a sledgehammer to crack a nut.

If necessary, we would be more than happy to visit your offices and give a presentation on laser scanning.
