Traditional surveying techniques are being enhanced by new technologies like 3D laser scanning. Advances such as this allow us to capture the geometry of terrain or objects with high precision through the emission of laser pulses.
Its operation is based on the principle of active remote sensing, which involves emitting radiation that is then analyzed by various sensors receiving the reflected signals to determine distances. In the construction and architecture sectors, where projects seek to optimize time, this technology improves efficiency, increases accuracy, and provides a fast and detailed alternative to conventional methods.
SPEED WITH PRECISE MEASUREMENTS
Compared to conventional surveying, which relies on equipment like total stations and high-precision GPS while also being prone to human error, 3D laser scanning enables faster surveys with a higher density of data points and minimal interference. While traditional techniques require point-by-point surveying, laser scanning generates clouds of millions of points in minutes, resulting in a highly detailed and precise three-dimensional representation. Additionally, it reduces the likelihood of human errors and minimizes the need to return to the site for additional data collection.
BETTER DATA PROCESSING
When it comes to data processing and its conversion into models, the benefits continue. The results obtained through 3D laser scanning optimize data processing, enabling the creation of dense digital models (more complete point clouds) of the terrain and three-dimensional representations ready for analysis in specialized software in a shorter time.
In other words, the workflow is streamlined—from data collection to processing and model generation. Every step leads to improved efficiency, cost savings, and time reduction, prompting us to rethink work methods and always offer the best techniques to benefit your company.
