Expert Precision for Derby’s Development Projects
Point Cloud Survey: The Future of Precise Data Captured
At SolidPoint, we’re proud to extend our expert point cloud survey services to Derby. Whether you’re revitalising a historic site, expanding retail spaces, or developing new residential areas, our advanced 3D laser scanning technology ensures high accuracy and detail for all your projects.
What is a Point Cloud Survey?
A Point Cloud Survey involves the use of advanced laser scanning technology to capture millions of data points from a physical space or object. These data points, when visualised, form a ‘cloud’, offering a 3D representation that’s rich in detail and depth. Whether you’re an architect, engineer, developer, or historian, Point Cloud Surveys provide a digital twin that’s almost indistinguishable from the real thing.
How Much Does a Point Cloud Survey Cost?
For projects in and around Derby, the cost can be as low as £750 + VAT for a small sized plot. This price will of course increase dependant on distance, size, and the level of detail required to record what you need.
