What is 3D Laser Scanning?

3D laser scanning is a cutting-edge technology that captures the exact shape and dimensions of physical objects and spaces using lasers to produce a highly detailed 3D model. By capturing accurate spatial data and creating detailed digital models, these tools enable better decision-making and streamlined workflows, making them essential for modern surveying practices.

Benefits of 3D Laser Scanning in Surveying:

  • High Accuracy
    Capture detailed, precise measurements with minimal risk of error.
  • Fast Data Collection
    Efficiently collect vast amounts of data in a short time
  • Versatility
    Suitable for projects ranging from residential buildings to complex commercial structures.

What is BIM Modelling?

Building Information Modelling (BIM) is a digital process that integrates the planning, design, and construction phases into one cohesive model. With BIM, every aspect of the project, from architectural design to mechanical and structural details, is visualised and organised, improving communication and collaboration among stakeholders.

Key Features and Advantages of BIM

  • Comprehensive Visualisation
    Provides a holistic view of the entire project in a single digital model.
  • Streamlined Collaboration
    Facilitates seamless communication between architects, engineers, and builders.
  • Enhanced Project Efficiency
    Reduces errors and delays by integrating data from all phases of the project.

Tailored 3D Laser Scanning Solutions

Residential Development

Experience a fully immersive virtual walkthrough of your project before the construction phase begins, giving you a clear understanding of the design and layout.

Heritage Site Restoration

3D surveys for commercial properties offer versatile solutions, playing a critical role in architectural planning, construction, as well as mechanical and structural analysis.

Commercial Infrastructure

Detailed 3D building models provide valuable support for architects and engineers, assisting in designing restorations or complete reconstructions if a heritage building suffers damage or destruction.

How 3D Laser Scanning Works

Our 3D laser scanning process involves utilising specialised laser scanners that send out millions of laser beams to capture every detail of the environment or structure. These laser  reflect off surfaces, and the scanner records the exact distance between the device and each point, creating a detailed point cloud that represents the site.

Equipment Used

  • Leica Laser Scanners
    Devices that emit laser beams to scan surfaces and collect spatial data on hard to reach spaces.
  • Data Processing Software
    Advanced software and training allow us to register and interpret complex 3D data.

Data Collection and Processing

After the data is collected processed and registered we generate a comprehensive point cloud. This information can then be used to create 3D Revit models, which can be integrated into BIM software for further analysis and design.

Benefits of 3D Laser Scanning & BIM Modelling

By integrating 3D laser scanning with BIM modelling, you gain access to a range of significant benefits:

  • Enhanced Accuracy and Precision
    Eliminates errors and ensures precise measurements throughout the project.
  • Time and Cost Efficiency
    Reduces time spent on-site and minimises costly rework by providing accurate data from the start.
  • Improved Collaboration
    Centralises data, ensuring all stakeholders are on the same page with ifformation rich models.
  • Comprehensive Project Visualisation
    Offers a complete digital representation of the project, making it easier to plan & design.
