Architecture, Engineering & Construction

How 3D-LiDAR Scanning Gives You an Advantage

LiDAR (LIght Detection And Ranging) is used to capture the measurements of a physical space, such as stationary objects, structures, and landscapes. 

LiDAR is used in projects such as:

  • Floorplan generation
  • As-built verification
  • Scan-to-BIM workflows
  • Existing conditions models
  • Surveying

In just seconds, our 3D laser scanner can measure millions of points in three dimensions, giving it a cloud of single-point measurements, also known as a point cloud.


BENEFITS OF A 3D-SCAN

  • Streamline documentation
  • 3D-scan as-builts
  • Collaborate with all parties
  • REDUCE COSTS

Save Time & Improve Accuracy

INCORPORATE YOUR BIM PROCESS

Incorporate Your Building Information Modelling (BIM) Process


If you work in construction, architecture, or engineering, we can help you streamline documentation, 3D-scan as-builts, and collaborate with vendors and partners. We save you TIME, which also saves you MONEY.


Export Your Point Cloud


Easily capture, share, and render your point cloud data within Revit and other BIM  tools.


Generate OBJ Files


Document your construction process through OBJ and point clouds for as-builts. 


Quickly Scan Tight Areas


A 3D scan allows accurate measurements to be taken in hard-to-reach areas such as  trusses, pipes, and beams.


Share your space with contractors and vendors


Allow third parties to view, measure, and comment on a digital twin of the 3D space, saving on travel and personnel costs.

MEASURE

The measurement tool in Matterport spaces gives users the ability to share measurements from anywhere in the world

  •  Verify measurements in a digital twin
  • Reduce the number of change orders
  • Increase accuracy for bids
  • Save time and money by measuring remotely

TAG

MEASURE

MEASURE

Media Tags are informational spots that highlight the specific features of a digital space.

  • Ask questions
  • Highlight key features
  • Embed photos, video, audio, or text


LABEL

Labels are short descriptions you can associate with rooms in your 3D Space. You can use labels to do the following:

  • Highlight important (or visually compelling) regions of your Space
  • Show guests where amenities are located
  • Provide square footage measurements on a per-room basis
  • Mark where rooms will be built in the future (for use with construction projects)
  • Mark specific and intricate parts of your Schematic Floor Plans

TOUR

Let 3D virtual tours engage your customers:

  • Showcase the wonders of your venue to event planners and their clients
  • Take your business to a new dimension
  • Give buyers the feeling of being in a new home
  • Help guests start picturing their stay

USE EXAMPLE

Pre-Drywall Capture of House

A local builder offers a valuable option  to his customers. Prior to the installation of drywall, the builder has HPS Media 3D-scan new construction prior to the installation of drywall. The scanning process takes about one hour for a typical 2,000 sq ft home. The final 3D model is then shared with the new homeowner, who can then share it remotely with future contractors and designers, if needed. (see below for an example)


By referencing this 3D model, contractors who work on future repairs, renovations, and enhancements can complete their work with minimal intrusion into the finished walls, floors, and ceilings. Contractors will not have to break open numerous openings in the walls to find pipes, wires, conduit, and ductwork, thus saving the homeowner time, money, and headaches.

The Benefits of LiDAR Scanning in AEC

There are several benefits to using LiDAR scanning services. Hand measuring is the traditional methodology that dominated the field, just due to lack of technology. The process can be very laborious and calculation errors are common. Also, multiple site visits are required to get dimensions, extending the process. But, let’s just list a few benefits of LiDAR scanning:

Extremely Accurate Data Collection

LiDAR Scan-to-BIM services are extremely precise and provide the correct measurements the first time.  Scanning is highly accurate as it builds the point cloud environment using laser beams to capture measurements and colors.

Save Significant Cost / Expenses

Because LiDAR scanning is incredibly accurate, discrepancies are found quickly and early on. LiDAR helps save costs through remote monitoring and inspection, project planning, enhanced administrative strategies, and tracking of different stages of a project. This reduces unnecessary trips to a project site, which ultimately reduce costs.

Eliminate Costly Site Visits and Save Time

When an accurate 3D model is delivered, the need to visit the site is removed, thus reducing unecessary expenses. Design and building professionals are then enabled to spend precious time on projects, rather than on the road between job sites.

Improved Coordination

When a site is scanned, the entire project team can use a singular model right from the start. This reduces mistakes by enabling all parties to use the same information.
