Benefits of Using 3D Laser Scanning
Speed
Up to 50,000 points per seccond scanned
Reduced survey/inspection time
Faster Project planning due to accurate as-build records
Rapid turnaround of deliverable 3D models
Accuracy
Accuracy ranges from .0004″ to .040″ depending on part size
Safety
Reduce on-site time
Reduce exposure to hazardous environments
Scanning can be performed from adjacent areas
Less need for scaffolding
Portability
Small footprint
Non-invasive, unobtrusive
Can be taken to remote sites
Scan from adjacent areas without direct physical contact
Flexibility
Wide operating range (up to 150m)
Large amount of data collected
Captures complex environments
Data useful for future projects
Cost Savings
Reduce brownfield project cost
Schedule compression
Reduce rework and crew downtime
Risk Mitigation
Reduce engineering errors
Reduce schedule upsets
Smaller crews, less repeat trips, less on-site time
