3D Laser Scanning Services in Colorado

A GPRS Project Manager 3D laser scanned 4,000 s.f. of existing retail space to provide 2D CAD drawings, a 3D virtual tour, a colorized point cloud, and a 3D BIM model to a client who was renovating a 30-year-old location.

Capturing 4,000 s.f. of Retail Space for New Tenant's Redesign

GPRS 3D Laser Scanning Services provided 3D reality capture, 2D CAD drawings, point cloud, a 3D virtual tour, and BIM model to redesign a retail location for a new tenant in Austin, Texas.

An Austin-based maker of cowboy boots and western wear was moving retail locationsThe previous tenant had occupied the location for more than 30 years The new tenant desired 2D floor plans and a 3D BIM model for a virtual walkthrough of the propertyThe previous tenant still occupied the active storefront, so scanning had to be completed after hours to avoid business interruptions Utilizing a Leica P-Series laser scanner, the GPRS Project Manager completed 24 scans of the 4,000 s.f property in one eveningLaser scanning captured measurements and virtual tour data to help the new tenant plan the store layoutGPRS Mapping & Modeling Team provided the tenant with a colorized point cloud, architectural 2D floorplans, a 3D BIM model, and virtual tour of the property 3D laser scanning is the fastest way to capture existing building conditions, documenting every detail into a digital mapMeasurements and point cloud data is accurate within 2-4mm to allow for accurate 2D and 3D as-builts3D virtual walk throughs allow the tenant to view the site remotely to easily plan and implement floor layouts and merchandisingWhile the renovations were initially designed in Rhino, the client planned to export Rhino models into Revit for further refinement and documentation

In just one day on site, GPRS was able to capture the entire existing condition of the facility, even in dense pipe runs and hard-to-reach spaces, with 2-4mm accuracy to provide the client with an accurate 3D BIM model for planning, fabrication, and clash detection

An engineering firm needed to have existing conditions of a power plant documented and modeled to plan for renovations.

An engineering firm needed to have existing conditions of a power plant documented and modeled to plan for renovations.

Problem • The client needed to accurately document the existing conditions of the plant without interruptions to the power supply • Many of the pipe runs were dense and impossible to accurately measure by hand • The client required 2-4 mm accuracy of dense piping and pipe runs throughout the facility • The client needed to guarantee that installations complied with safety regulations Solution • In one day on site, GPRS' Project Manager used the Leica RTC360 laser scanner to capture 150 laser scans, documenting existing conditions of the facility • Many of the pipe runs were dense and impossible to accurately measure by hand • GPRS generated a 3D BIM model for use in CAD software, including all civil, structural, electrical, and mechanical features, piping, and conduit 1" and larger Benefits • Due to the vast space and density of the piping, it would have been much more difficult and time consuming to accurately depict the location of pipe runs, structural features, and other details in the plant manually • The point cloud data from laser scanning was used by CAD technicians to create an intelligent 3D BIM model for planning, fabrication and clash detection • Verified measurements and virtual planning guarantee installations will comply with safety regulations • Using virtual 3D models, the firm can plan and model future developments to manage the facility without having to re-enter the site

3D Laser Scanning

GPRS provided critical dimensional verification to ensure a flawless installation, reduce delays, clashes, and other unforeseen challenges for the project team

GPRS partnered with two renewable energy companies constructing an offshore wind farm to verify that the prefabricated components of several wind turbines met the specified design requirements

GPRS aids renewable energy projects with precise as-built data for design, construction, and maintenance. From solar panel installation to wind farm construction, we deliver accurate data for your project needs. 3D laser scanning captured complete and accurate dimensional information to verify that the prefabricated components were in tolerance for the design drawings Precast concrete foundations were laser scanned and a CAD comparison was performed to confirm that the dimensions matched the design planSubstation topside steel platforms were laser scanned to provide accurate as-built dimensions of all three levels and report the maximum outside diameter of the structure The Mapping & Modeling Team delivered 2D CAD drawings and a 3D BIM model, detailing the as-built dimensions and deviation between the design model and actual component 3D laser scanning captured complete and accurate dimensional information to verify that the prefabricated components were in tolerance for the design drawingsPrecast concrete foundations were laser scanned and a CAD comparison was performed to confirm that the dimensions matched the design planSubstation topside steel platforms were laser scanned to provide accurate as-built dimensions of all three levels and report the maximum outside diameter of the structureThe Mapping & Modeling Team delivered 2D CAD drawings and a 3D BIM model, detailing the as-built dimensions and deviation between the design model and actual component

The construction of a wind turbine required shipping prefabricated components on a vessel out to sea and using a crane to assemble Verification of the prefabricated component measurements within tolerance of the design drawings ensured a flawless installation Unique construction conditions meant there was no time to troubleshoot installation problems or add additional site visits and time at sea
