Laser Scanning UTMB League City

A year old UTMB League City Campus Hospital is up again for infrastructure advancement. The development is to sustain the growing number of patients and visitors. Hence a new block is already on its way and our client was short listed to build the covered parking lot for the hospital and a bridge leading from the parking lot to the main block. Therefore, to plan newer projects, an as-built documentation/survey is important. Because an as-built survey would have the latest development updates of the campus area. The fastest way to acquire an as-built documentation of the location with high accuracy is by laser scanning the area.

Arrival3D is called in to do the scanning for the UTMB campus hospital. The client is going to use the 3D scan as part of their presentation for visual references and future proposed construction for the parking lot.

Scanning Procedure

Area scanned includes an open area with field, perimeter around the main building and the roof of the hospital. Each scan took about 5 minutes and 2 working days to complete the entire project.

Then entire project is registered and aligned using Autodesk Recap. The file is unified to 50mm point spacing to speed up the delivery process. Due to the client requiring it A.S.A.P. The completed file (30 gb) was delivered a few days later which contains greater detail of the campus and higher point density.
