About GPRS 3D Laser Scanning
GPRS Laser Scanning provides the highest quality 3D laser scanning services to help clients Intelligently Visualize The Built World™.
Time is money. Traditional, hand-measured as-built drawings waste both because they are often outdated and inaccurate, which can cause mistakes at every level of a project, from planning to design to execution.
When you choose to create accurate and complete as-builts with GPRS 3D laser scans, you can avoid unnecessary downtime and expensive cost overruns because we make the unseen, seen, measurable, and usable by providing a true digital twin that exposes previously unknown conditions and is accurate within millimeters.
We have built a team of Project Managers that can quickly mobilize and service any site in the United States. Our Project Managers undergo an extensive training program to ensure their competence in terms of equipment, field knowledge, and providing the best possible results for every project.
"Contracting GPRS to do a 3D laser scan has been one of the best project decisions we made. With their help we were able to reduce cost, increase productivity, and deliver the project on time."
Vincent M. - Superintendent
We primarily use Leica industry-leading survey-grade laser scanners to capture comprehensive point cloud data. They allow us to provide data that is complete, clean, accurate and well filtered with low range noise. Point clouds provide powerful and dynamic information for a project. By representing spatial data as a collection of coordinates, point clouds deliver large datasets that can be mined for information. The visualization and analysis from this data is invaluable for decision making.
Our in-house team of CAD technicians transform point clouds into customized drawings maps and models, such as 2D drawings and 3D models at any level of detail for visualization, analysis, design, construction, renovation, prefabrication and facility modifications.
Our project team works together to deliver the project requirements -- on time and on budget.
GPRS has provided 3D laser scanning, mapping, and modeling services for some of the best-known companies in the United States. Whether you’re actively embracing 3D laser scanning or on the fence about the technology, GPRS can help you reach your goals. If you are new to the laser scanning process, we offer comfort and assurance by walking you through the entire process: from pre-planning to final maps and models.
Mission
GPRS is dedicated to helping you Intelligently Visualize The Built World™ by delivering the highest quality 3D laser scanning services, using state-of-the-art equipment, technology, and processes. From conception to completion, we will provide exceptional service and work closely with you to achieve practical 3D laser scanning solutions for your project.
GPRS is the industry-leading 3D laser scanning service in the United States. Our professionals stay at the forefront of new technologies, we are client-dedicated, and uphold the highest professional standards in the practice of laser scanning, design, and BIM/CAD technology for the engineering, construction, and architecture industries.
As-Built Surveys
As-builts have never been more accurate than with 3D laser scan technology. 3D laser scanning captures exact building dimensions, locations, and layout – information that is crucial to the success of your project. Items are often revised, added, or removed from the original plan, making as-builts invaluable for design, construction, renovation, and facility modifications.
3D BIM Modeling
3D BIM models are accurate digital representations of a building or site to facilitate design, construction, and operational processes. 3D BIM models provide clients with the ability to break down architectural, structural, and MEP building features and see how they fit into a single finalized structure. Users can isolate and alter walls, columns, windows, doors, etc. to support the planning and design needs of any project.
Clash Detection & Prefabrication
3D laser scanning captures as-built site conditions with a high level of precision, helping to identify potential clashes, fabricate components, and plan a flawless installation. Information can be shared with other teams to ensure everyone is on the same page and can coordinate their work effectively. This saves time, money and headaches by preventing costly modifications in the field.
Mixed Reality Development Models
3D laser scanning can be used to create 3D models and 3D mesh files for use in mixed reality, projection mapping, and 3D gaming. When generating virtual reality experiences, computer-generated objects must precisely interact with the physical environment. 3D laser scanning technology documents real-world environments with millimeter precision and reconstructs them into a dimensionally-accurate 3D digital representation. Assets are delivered in high detail with texture, the perfect element for stunning visualization applications.
Above And Below Ground Data Capture
The combination of laser scanning and ground penetrating radar captures precise documentation of aboveground existing conditions and subsurface information. It allows you to receive clear and understandable findings of structural, MEP, and field markings in point cloud data format, 2D site plans, and 3D models. Accurate data allows you to expedite design planning, extract 3D coordinates, and measure distances: along with the ability to mark-up and share this with project teams. Receiving critical site information will lower project risks and increase project efficiency.

"[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."
