Challenge
Needed to accurately measure large sites quickly.
Unable to work with point cloud data natively in SolidWorks.
Solution
Veesus Point Clouds for SolidWorks plug-in..
Full range of editing features, and instant and accurate measurements.
Result
Easily able to work with a 2-mile scan of a harbour to plan new building work.
Combining as-built data with designs enabled team to gain planning permission faster.
Testimonial
“The scan had caught lots of data we didn’t need – including hundreds of birds in the harbour. With Veesus it was so easy to remove all that extraneous data, and just focus on what we needed.”
Client Work
A close up of the foundations from a previous building in the harbour, which EAPL used as the basis for their new building.
A close up of EAPL’s proposed buildings in situ alongside as-built data from the point cloud.
