Reality Capture Explained
.webp)
Reality capture generates a highly accurate 3D BIM model of a building or site by scanning real-world conditions with long-range terrestrial laser scanners. Through LiDAR-based 3D laser scanning or photogrammetry, millions of surface points are measured and mapped to create a high-resolution, geometrically accurate model. The resulting dataset integrates directly with design, visualization, and analysis software, supporting efficient planning, construction, and asset management.
Reality capture data eliminates uncertainty and provides accurate, actionable information to rely on throughout your project’s lifecycle. Fully customizable to meet your specific project requirements, this data to reduces site visits, optimizes workflows, and ultimately keeps your project running on time, on budget, and safe.

Case Studies
"[The Technician] did a good job of getting up to speed and working with little or no direction, which helped us concentrate on our other needs on site."
Steve H.
Project Manager
"The scan helped tremendously and has saved us quite a bit of time and trouble."
Gene A.
Mechanical Integrity Engineer
"Thanks for jumping into this assignment so quickly. What a great and productive trip. You guys work tirelessly, non-stop with all aspects of the set-up and execution. Your ability to master the technology is a game changer for us."
Don A.
Executive Vice President, Director of Architecture, Engineering & Technology
"We have been very pleased with the results of the scanning process. The product has been very useful. And has certainly helped in the development of the project. I would certainly use GPRS again on future projects."
John G.
President & Principal Architect
"Our disciplines have been utilizing the Point Cloud and TruView information and it has been of value. We have discovered a few clashes with our structural steel, which may not have ever been caught, so I feel the service has already paid for itself."
Joseph G.
P.E., Project Manager
