When it comes to commercial buildings a laser scanner is the piece of equipment to use. Laser scanning enables the capture of 3D data and measurements of a large site or building withing a short period of time. Which is incredibly useful when you have a commercial building that work done. 

How do laser scanners work?  

Laser scanning can help designers visualize their designs by using real building data as a foundation. The laser projects a line of laser light onto the surface. While 2 sensor cameras, continuously record the changing distance and shape of the laser in 3 dimensions as it goes along the object.  

Advantages of laser scanning in the build and remodel of commercial properties –  

The results will more accurate –  

By using 3D lasers in projects, we can avoid the inefficient process of taking measurements by hand and transferring the hand drawings into a software program. Instead, the technicians can use the laser scanner to measure the entire existing building and work with the generated 3D model to carry out renovations. This ability makes it possible to get an accurate picture of the house compared to existing drawings or manual measurements. 

Reduces manual labour- 

Manual labour can be tedious and prone to error. Laser scanning can help reduce it and ensure a higher degree of accuracy. Scanning also reduces the need for other parties on a project to make multiple trips out to the site to verify plans. 

Complies with health and safety regulations –  

The 3D scanner is ideal for hazardous or hard-to-reach areas. 3D scanners allow surveyors to capture environments without the need to physically access the area. This reduces the requirement for costly and laborious health and safety measures and ensures the safety of 3D surveyors. 

You get the results immediately –  

When you use a laser scanner you can almost access the scans immediately. This helps to improve productivity, operations and reduces the chance of having to do the work again. Scanning gives you the exact measurements, which also saves time.
