Reality capture, so you build on real data.

We supply LIDAR, photogrammetry, point clouds, as-built BIM and web visualisation to control works, record states, reduce uncertainty and coordinate teams against captured reality — useful in particular when part of the project team is not in the country.

Uses

Control what exists, what is being built and what is handed over.

Captured data lets decisions be taken before problems reach site, states be evidenced, and final documentation be more trustworthy.

Initial survey

Capture of the current state before designing, altering, partially demolishing or intervening.

Progress monitoring

Visual and metric comparison of progress, phases, clashes and completed areas.

As-built handover

Point cloud, drawings, BIM model and visualisation of the final asset for operation or maintenance.

Who it is for

Architecture, engineering, contractor and client.

The same capture can serve several roles if the deliverable is planned: design office, site manager, contract administrator, client, maintenance or facility management.

During design and works

  • A reliable base for alteration or refurbishment design.
  • Validation of existing geometry and available space.
  • Clash control and complex setting-out.
  • Visual monitoring by drone or 3D capture.

At handover

  • As-built BIM model to the agreed scope.
  • Final-state point cloud.
  • Derived drawings and technical documentation.
  • Web viewer for later reference.

FAQ

Questions about construction.

Why scan before designing a refurbishment?

So the design sits on real geometry rather than on old or missing drawings. The scan records out-of-plumb walls, real levels, exposed services and available space — which is exactly where the surprises and cost overruns of a refurbishment concentrate.

How is what has been built compared against the design?

By overlaying the point cloud of the works on the design model to measure real deviations, stage by stage. It exposes clashes and setting-out errors while they can still be corrected, instead of at handover.

How much does scanning disrupt the works?

Little: capturing a floor or a work face is usually resolved in a day or less, without stopping work or clearing the area. Processing happens afterwards, off site.

What deliverable does the client or contract administrator usually ask for?

It depends who will use the data. The design office normally asks for drawings and an as-built BIM model; the client and facility management ask for the final-state point cloud and web viewer access to consult it during operation.
