Architecture and cultural monuments
3D laser scanning of buildings, churches, castles has an advantage over conventional measurement procedures in that the laser scanner is able to target the object more comprehensively, meaning that the scanner is capable of taking approximately 900,000 measurements per second. The density of the acquired data and the speed of the collection guarantees that the data processed afterwards will be an accurate representation of reality. It is then up to the customer whether they require 2D CAD technical documentation in the form of sections, views, floor plans, or a 3D model in the form of CAD, BIM or MESH. Another indisputable advantage is that all objects in a given space are always focused on. This means that there is no need to travel to the object again and take additional measurements.
What the customer gets
- accurate structured 2D reps. 3D CAD model in the required format (dwg, dxf, dgn, rvt, wrp, ifc … )
- project documentation in the form of 2D PDF or 3D PDF
- rendered presentation photos for marketing purposes (jpg, png, tiff …)
- a complete set of laser scans with a free viewer
- laser scans in html format for virtual tours
