3D Laser Scanning Services in Wisconsin

The cost avoidance impact of the integrated scan-to-BIM workflow saved the project an estimated 5% of the total contract amount, a savings of approximately $1,500,000.

GPRS provided 3D laser scanning and modeling services for a 15-story structure in the greater Cincinnati, Ohio area. This included 8 floors of commercial space, 2 stories of retail, 5 levels of parking garage, as well as the exterior façade and roof surface. The GPRS Project Manager captured over 1.54 million square-feet of space, and in-house engineers created a custom Revit model based on the point cloud of the existing conditions. Once construction was complete, this project received the 2017 Build Ohio Award for New Construction Over $30 million.

The Famous Group was able to create a mixed reality experience that included an enormous virtual panther skulking through the stadium and onto the Jumbotron, delighting the 70,000 fans in attendance, thanks to the accurate scans, models, and meshes provided by GPRS

GPRS 3D laser scanned The Bank of America Stadium and the Gentle Giant panther statue for The Famous Group and the Carolina Panthers to create a mixed-reality experience for the home opening football game vs. the New York Jets

GPRS 3D laser scanned The Bank of America Stadium and the Gentle Giant panther statue for The Famous Group and the Carolina Panthers to create a mixed-reality experience for the home opening football game vs. the New York Jets. GPRS delivered a 3D mesh model to assist in the creation of this mixed-reality experience.

Problem • To sell the realism of mixed reality, computer-generated objects must precisely interact with the physical environment • As-built information and a 3D model of The Bank of America Stadium did not exist Solution • In 1 ½ days on site, using a Leica P40 ScanStation, point cloud data of the interior field, stadium bowl, seating, and upper rigging area was captured • To give the panther virtual objects to climb on and interact with, CAD technicians used the point cloud data to create a Revit 2021 LOD 200 3D model of the stadium • The Gentle Giant panther statue at the front of the stadium was 3D laser scanned to create a triangulated 3D mesh model in .fbx file format for the animation/CGI Benefits • 3D laser scanning is a fast and accurate way to digitize real-world objects for use in computer-aided design (CAD) and mixed reality • 3D models are created in our corporate office by experienced engineers and CAD technicians • The Famous Group was able to create a mixed reality experience that included an enormous virtual panther skulking through the stadium and onto the Jumbotron, delighting the 70,000 fans in attendance

Our client required a high-detail 3D BIM model to accurately visualize, design, modify, and manage the update of a heat exchanger within a Wastewater Treatment facility, enabling efficient updates and modifications without the need for extensive on-site measurements or manual drafting.

GPRS was called to 3D laser scan the Southerly Wastewater Treatment Plant and render an LOD 300 BIM model of the three-level heat exchanger for ABC Piping Co. to update one of the systems.

GPRS 3D laser scanned the Southerly Wastewater Treatment Plant to develop a LOD 300 3D BIM model for ABC Piping Co. to update one of the heat exchangers at the facility.

Highlights THE BOTTOM LINE Our client required a high-detail 3D BIM model to accurately visualize, design, modify, and manage the update of a heat exchanger within a Wastewater Treatment facility, enabling efficient updates and modifications without the need for extensive on-site measurements or manual drafting. INDUSTRY Water Treatment Plant & Wastewater Treatment Plant SERVICE 3D Laser Scanning; Mapping & Modeling LOCATION Cleveland, Ohio PM Insight The Leica RTC360 can generate 3D point clouds in less than 2 minutes, delivering our clients quick data visualization for project planning. The Leica RTC360 scans in color, which is useful when you need a true representation of a site in color detail. Deliverables LOD 300 3D BIM Model Task GPRS was called to 3D laser scan the Southerly Wastewater Treatment Plant and render an LOD 300 BIM model of the three-level heat exchanger for ABC Piping Co. to update one of the systems. PROBLEM Our client desired to upgrade the heat exchanger to reduce maintenance, energy consumption, and overall operational expenses in the long term. To properly design, prefabricate, and install system updates, ABC Piping Co. required a detailed 3D BIM model of the current mechanical and piping system, including pipe sizes, materials, and routing. Solution GPRS partnered with ABC Piping Co. to 3D laser scan and model the heat exchanger at the Southerly Wastewater Treatment Plant for upgrades. GPRS utilized the Leica RTC360 laser scanner to capture as-built conditions from 3 different floors around the existing heat exchangers. 108 laser scans were taken with the RTC360 from different locations to capture the intricate details of this very dense mechanical facility. The 3D BIM model provideed a detailed and accurate representation of the existing heat exchangers within the facility, enabling engineers and designers to clearly understand the spatial relationships, constraints, and interdependencies between various components. Benefits 3D laser scanning captured precise layout, dimensions, and locations of the existing architectural, structural, MEP, FP, and HVAC system elements for this facility in a point cloud. The GPRS Mapping & Modeling team transformed point cloud data into an intelligent 3D BIM model to aid system engineering. A 3D BIM model saved in a shared environment allowed all disciplines to work together to identify and resolve clashes before the system integration begins, ensuring a smooth retrofit with minimal rework. ‍
