Measured Building Surveys – Happy Halloween allow our scanning teams to access some rather interesting and spooky places. With basements, attics to abandoned factories the team at M3S have all enjoyed exploring these areas while scanning to allow for a complete survey to aid the creation of plans and models.

Measured Building Surveying Using Laser Scanning

M3S use both a Leica RTC360 and Leica P40 laser scanner to capture the as built conditions on site. These scanners can capture data at rates of up to 2 million points per second on the RTC and up to 1 million points per second on the P40. To allow for a complete survey the team are often in basements, attics, abandoned buildings etc.  With such good coverage the CAD team can accurately draw and model all areas of the building.

Captured Data LIDAR From Measured Surveys  – Cyclone Register 360 / Cyclone Core

Once the data has been captured on site, the data is imported to Leica Cyclone.  If the RTC360 has been used with VIS is gets imported to Register 360 for an initial registration before being imported to Cyclone Core where full registration and further QC takes place. Once the registration, quality control and any additional survey control is added the registration is locked and the data exported to allow it to carry on to the production stage of the project.

“Spooky” Scenes From Previous Measured Building Surveys

The following scenes are snapshots from the point clouds that the scan team at M3S has captured this year…. with a little bit of “Photoshop” to help out!!

A haunting rural scene at a measured building survey with topo earlier this year a short drive outside Krakow. #MeasuredSurvey #LaserScanning #Topo #Halloween

Down in the deep, dark basements of an abandoned building in Eastern Europe for a scan to Revit model. Cyclone Core didnt quite manage to clean out the ghosts. #Haunted #Scan2BIM #CycloneCore #EveryDetailMatters

Our Scan Team were not so lucky when they surveyed this former factory – we have enough scan data for the crime scene team to investigate. #CrimeScene #Halloween2021 #EveryDetailMatters #JasonVoorhees #RTC360
