3D Scanning Cell Towers

3D scanning cell towers benefits the telecommunications industry greatly by making measurement activities safer, quicker, and more cost effective. Long range scanning and drone scanning are becoming the standard for mapping and modeling areas around existing and future telecommunication sites and utility towers.

3D scanning cell towers is a very efficient way to collect information, reducing human error and empowering engineers with more accurate and thorough information to plan prospective projects. Terrain maps and 3D CAD models help engineers foresee potential problems or space conflicts prior to construction. Mapping abilities help to ensure that the infrastructure will work in relation to the rest of its environment.

Benefits

3D Laser Scanning Cell Towers With Arrival 3D

We specialize in telecom inventory software, and can convert your 3D scans to cloud-based inventory systems that provide a common platform for information sharing. When we started, cell tower 3D scanning was the future. Now it’s is rapidly becoming the industry standard for maintaining and operating telecommunications equipment due to its accuracy, level of detail, and flexibility.

We use survey-grade long range LIDAR 3D scanning equipment
3D drone scanning and panoramic imaging
Quality analysis and checks at every step in the process.
3D CAD modeling and flythroughs
Coordinate system adaptation to your requirements

Deliverables

Deliverables for Cell Tower 3D Scan Projects

Receive an as-built CAD model, or use the point cloud directly.

Once the cell tower 3D scanning is done, you have the option of converting your scan into Autodesk Revit, Solidworks, or other common CAD format. You can also work directly with the point cloud.

Point clouds contain all of the detailed information that the scanner captured. The point cloud allows you do to space planning without the need for a CAD model, reducing cost.

Advantages of 3D Scanning Cell Towers

When performing 3D scanning of cell towers, a huge amount of measurements are taken in a short period of time. The scanner can be hundreds of feet from the tower equipment to be scanned and there is no disruption to the telecom equipment service.

The resulting deliverables, such as CAD models can imported into CAD software and used by engineers to plan new installations, equipment augmentation, or decommissioning of cell tower equipment. It is possible to scan multiple cell towers in a day, and align the resulting scans to a coordinate system using GPS.

3D scanning is also valuable for measuring and inspecting cell towers that are already in service. 3D scans can help determine whether a tower has structural problems, or to assess damage after an event. We can also scan the equipment rooms and shelters on the ground, and provide inventory reports, elvation and plan drawings. We will determine the optimum scanning time and resolution needed to accomplish your goals with a minimum of on-site time.

Testimonials

What our customers saying

“My company has used Arrival on several occasions. Arrival came to our remote job site a couple times, bringing their equipment with them. I am enthusiastic about their capabilities and service.”

"I called Arrival 3D while working a unique project. They were very professional and knowledgeable. My contact was very thorough and patient with me in explaining the process. Their services were the first step of a very important project and they made me look good. I highly recommend this company."

“I have used Arrival 3D for many projects over the last several years. A great group to work with. I can always count on them to get the work completed on time and on budget.”

“I had Arrival 3D laser scan two properties that are going into the architectural design phase. They produced LOD 300 models for both project that were excellent. Scheduling was easy and the 3 week turnaround was fast. I look forward to using them on many more development projects.”

"Lanny and his team responded quickly and efficient to our request. They were on-time, clearly communicated with us whenever we had questions and ultimately delivered a great product. We really appreciate their effort and look forward to working with them in the future."

"Working with Lanny @ Arrival 3D was a great experience. He was extremely friendly and very responsive. The turn around time on his work was fantastic. In terms of pricing for the work, I would say that it was extremely reasonable, and the results were amazing. I did my research, and out of all the companies I researched Arrival offered the best services for the price."
