3D Laser Scanning Services in Texas

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

3D Laser Scanning

The 17,000 s.f. golf club, including pro shop, locker rooms, and restaurant areas were all 3D scanned in a single day with minimal operational interruption to provide 1/4" accurate structural & architectural models

GPRS 3D Laser Scanning provides existing conditions documentation to Vanderbilt University's Legends Golf Club

Vanderbilt Legends Golf Club renovations aimed for "elite facility" status, aided by GPRS 3D Laser Scanning and Mapping & Modeling Services

Vanderbilt University planned an expansion and renovations of its Legends Golf Club to propel it to "elite facility" statusThe architect on the project needed accurate existing conditions documentation to develop a design plan and solicit bids from construction companiesThe club management required that any work be completed with minimal operational interference GPRS 3D laser scanned the two-story, 17,000 s.f. clubhouse in one day with the Leica RTC360An intensity map point cloud file, 2D CAD drawings, and a Revit 3D model were all delivered to the architect via GPRS Mapping & Modeling TeamDocumenting architectural elements, such as the building envelope, walls, windows, doors, ceilings, exposed columns, beams, and posts with 2-4mm accuracy was critical to the renovation effort Capturing real-time existing conditions prior to designing the expansion & renovation reduced reworks, waste, and mistakesThe 1/4" accuracy provided by the architectural and structural model allowed for extremely detailed plans to be delivered to the contractorThe building renovations created a state-of-the-art facility for the team, the membership, and to aid in recruitment efforts

3D Laser Scanning

With the millions of data points collected, GPRS’ Mapping & Modeling team could create an accurate LOD 200 Revit 2021 BIM model of this processing facility.

GPRS mobilized to Fairmont, Nebraska to 3D laser scan a food grade corn processing facility. The target objects of point cloud data acquisition were tanks, silos, hoppers, conveyors, support cables, machinery, equipment, cleaning house and loading drive-thru. GPRS’ engineering team created an LOD 200 Revit model of the facility. The client also requested floor flatness analysis/contour mapping around several tanks.

Location: Fairmont, NE Task: GPRS mobilized to Fairmont, Nebraska to 3D laser scan a food grade corn processing facility. The target objects of point cloud data acquisition were tanks, silos, hoppers, conveyors, support cables, machinery, equipment, cleaning house and loading drive-thru. GPRS’ engineering team created an LOD 200 Revit model of the facility. The client also requested floor flatness analysis/contour mapping around several tanks. Challenge: The client needed accurate and precise detail of the facility in point cloud and model form, especially the congested areas. The client was concerned with differences in tank displacement; therefore, they requested tank farm slab elevation contours. Solution: An experienced project manager captured more than 160 scan locations with a Leica survey-grade laser scanner. The facility was scanned from the ground to capture the tanks, bins, silos, hoppers and discharge area under the 11 hoppers. The facility was 3D laser scanned at elevations with stair and elevator access to capture the spouting and conveyors at the top of each tank, silo and bin. Scanning was completed from the accessible roof to capture the equipment, cables and machinery present. The cleaning house was also scanned at multiple elevations to capture the entire room. The project manager increased the resolution and density of the point cloud to capture more detail in congested areas with small conduits, piping and flanges. With the millions of data points collected, GPRS’ engineering team could model this project with accuracy and precision. Concrete slab flatness can be quickly analyzed with laser scanning. GPRS engineers colored the cloud in respect to elevation to illustrate high or low points in the concrete. Deliverables: GPRS delivered unified point clouds in PTS file format, structured individual scans in E57 file format, a colorized point cloud (.rcs and/or .rcp file format) and JetStream Viewer files to the client. An LOD 200 Revit 2021 BIM model was created with the following elements: • Basic structural elements including exposed columns and beams • The general shape of 6 tanks with high detail at discharge locations and high detail on gates to conveyors • Rail spur within vicinity of tanks • Catwalks and equipment on tanks • Fall protection • Edge of adjacent building • Approximate grade GPRS delivered a graphical elevation map, contours and spot elevations for the requested tanks. This included AutoCAD, PDF, and Civil 3D files to generate contours around the tank farm. Added Value: GPRS works closely with each client to ensure their needs are met. Point cloud files were immediately uploaded to Cintoo for the client’s use. They were able to add annotations or tags to anything they might want modeled. To minimize modeling costs, all modeling is done as a “best fit” method, utilizing solids overlaid on the point cloud data. To verify the spot elevations, GPRS also provided tank roof elevations shown colored by point cloud elevation.
