When it comes to efficient planning and precise execution in construction and engineering projects, accurate site data is essential.
Recently, we undertook a laser scanning survey in Oadby, Leicester, to assist a client in carefully planning the position of a foul drainage pipe.
This case study highlights the benefits of laser scanning for effective project management.
Our client required a detailed survey to accurately determine the optimal route for a foul drainage pipe.
Using state-of-the-art laser scanning technology, we captured precise measurements of the existing architecture on-site.
This information allowed the client to plan and draw with confidence, avoiding costly errors and unexpected challenges.
What Is a Laser Scanning Survey?
A Laser scanning survey is currently the most accurate and efficient form of reality capture, and by far obsoletes traditional surveying methods across a broad range of construction design needs.
We have developed various methodologies to streamline the way the data is collected and how it is processed.
