subject: Surveying Process Simplified Through 3d Laser Scanning [print this page] In order to ensure that a building meets the specified design printed on a plan, one should obtain precise data measurements whether the building is newly constructed or reconstructed for improvisation or aesthetic purposes. A lot of companies today are now using 3D laser scanning in order to obtain the most precise data measurements instead of relying on traditional means.
There are three major advantages that laser scanning provides as compared to the traditional method of surveying namely more accurate measurements, faster results and cost-effective. Traditional surveying method, on the other hand, takes weeks before the surveying process is completed, which results to longer results and higher cost rates that you are going to pay.
Even after at least one surveying session, laser surveying method can already produce some results. If you are considering on switching from traditional means to laser surveying process, you might be weighing the pros and cons of each process and here we shall point out some benefits that you can get when you switch to the 3D laser scanning process of surveying.
There are four areas of surveys in which the 3D laser scanning services are being applied namely measured building, measured industrial, engineering and deformation surveys. The measured building survey is a process wherein you need to obtain accurate measurements no matter what type of building there is. Afterwards, a 3D model is then created to incorporate the intended design. This is where you create the plans on the floors, sections or elevations within the building.
The measured industrial survey is another area wherein 3D laser scanning services are utilized in order to get accurate measurements on industrial objects such as underground chambers, telecommunication towers, tunnels, railways, bridges, roads and a whole lot more. This is also where evaluation for structural repair is conducted, which is made simple through computer simulations.
The last two areas where 3D laser scanning services are applied are engineering and deformation surveys. Laser surveys provide timely and accurate data measurements to engineering surveys while it provides monitoring for movement of objects and structures for deformation surveys. Indeed, if you want to switch, there is no time to waste.
