3D Laser Scanning
3D laser scanning is a geospatial technology that uses LIDAR (light detection and ranging) to measure the geometry and location of physical locations. Each laser scan emits millions of measurement points, and collectively these points create a “point cloud” of raw geospatial coordinates. The precise detail of these points means that you can accurately measure the dimensions and location of physical objects and structures efficiently and accurately. The result is a highly accurate digitized replica – or digital twin – of your facility, building, or site.
ONSITE3D is internationally recognized for excellence in the field of 3D laser scanning – working with some of the largest companies in Canada and the United States. Our scanning technicians are experts at operating terrestrial LIDAR systems and follow a rigorous process that ensures accurate capture and registration of your site. Our dedicated Data Lab in Calgary, Alberta is able to process your raw data at industry leading turnaround times and deliver a high-fidelity product for our project.
