3D Scanning Services

Aerial Imaging can scan your site using the latest 3d laser scanning technology. We will also prepare and deliver your scans for your engineering department to import into any CAD system for 3d modeling. Whether you are scanning a complex environment or a simple structure you can take advantage of our comprehensive 3D scanning services.

We Visit You for Fast, Accurate and Safe Scans

  • Increase Jobsite Accuracy — The most accurate way to obtain measurement data
  • Save Valuable Time – Obtain results faster than any other method
  • No Work Flow Interruption – Safe to scan during operations day or night

  • Safe to use – Personnel NOT in harm’s way during scans
  • Easy data manipulation – Data interfaces directly into CAD systems

How Laser Scanning Works

Scanning a construction site

Scanning a jobsite without interrupting construction

Laser scanning is the fastest, most accurate method of measuring your jobsite for acquiring highly accurate measurements. 3d laser scanning works by gathering millions of closely spaced measurements in a matter of minutes. These exact measurements are grouped into point cloud databases that are an incredibly accurate representation of your construction site. This dense data can be easily manipulated on standard desktop and laptop computers. Since the data can be viewed, navigated and analyzed much like a 3D model in traditional CAD systems, it allows you to easily understand what is happening on your jobsite.

3d construction scan

In most cases you will be able to obtain data beyond the project limits of your project.

Avoid the Trap of “Doing It Yourself”
While purchasing 3D scanner and software can be justified for your large project, additional factors are often overlooked during the purchasing decision.  Avoid losing time and the cost of having an engineer “learning” to operate the equipment. Even more critical is the exceptionally long learning curve and  expertise to prepare the data for your CAD systems. Our experience and expertise in the industry will get you the results you need. Let us save you time and dramatically increase your accuracy.

How We Do It
