Laser Gulf is currently working with hand held 3D scanners to maximise benefits for clients with onshore and offshore assets.

The 3D scanners are simple to use and provide a means of instantly capturing data and performing detailed surveys in areas that are difficult, or sometimes impossible, to access with conventional tripod mounted scanners.

The benefits of hand held scanning include:

• Brownfield data collection of as-built information using Z&F and Faro scanners
• High speed, high resolution results capturing a million points per second
• 40m + scanning range with accuracy to ± 3 mm
• Overlay design in point cloud & bubble view
• Point cloud as-built information links to PDMS, Micro-station and Auto-Cad 3D modeling systems
• Automatic clash detection between point cloud and new design
• Infrared thermal imaging
