3D Laser Scanning
3D laser scanning is a geospatial technology that uses LIDAR (light detection and ranging) to measure the geometry and location of physical locations. Each laser scan emits millions of measurement points, and collectively these points create a “point cloud” of raw geospatial coordinates. The precise detail of these points means that you can accurately measure the dimensions and location of physical objects and structures efficiently and accurately. The result is a highly accurate digitized replica – or digital twin – of your facility, building, or site.
WHY ONSITE3D STANDS OUT
Internationally recognized for excellence in 3D laser scanning, ONSITE3D has collaborated with top-tier companies across Canada and the US. Our Calgary-based Data Lab is a hub of innovation, processing raw data with unbeatable speed and delivering unmatched quality.
KEY ATTRIBUTES
Expertise – Our scanning technicians are the best at what they do, efficiently capturing your site using terrestrial LIDAR systems.
Speed – With one of North America’s largest terrestrial scanner fleets, we ensure rapid capture without sacrificing detail.
Accuracy – Our scans boast an engineering-grade accuracy tolerance ranging between 1mm-3mm.
From Point Clouds to Profit
Increasingly, organizations realize the inefficiencies of outdated site models. The future? Point clouds and digital twins. Not only are they time-efficient but also offer applications like as-built packages, work pack creation, and design, ensuring immediate ROI. At ONSITE3D, we’ve refined 3D scanning processes, delivering data that integrates seamlessly into your digital framework.
Our Commitment to Service
Speed – Multi-person teams using multiple LIDAR units, capturing vast assets swiftly.
Versatility – From short to long-range laser scanning, photogrammetry to robotic total stations, we bring diverse tools to meet varied needs.
Data Security – Your data, processed in our state-of-the-art lab in Calgary, is delivered securely, adhering to your organization’s protocols.
Our add-on solutions are designed to maximize the potential of your scanning data. From as-built packages and fabrication isometrics to equipment verification and 5D BIM simulations, we offer practical solutions that guarantee a measurable ROI.
Our unique offerings include:
- 3D Traceable Monument System: A proprietary solution that dramatically reduces the time and cost needed to update point cloud data post modifications.
- Enterprise Programs: Tailored for organizations with expansive asset portfolios, ensuring cost-efficiency and optimal ROI.
