3D scanning: The scanning process

At pointSpace, digitizing spaces and collecting data are crucial steps that enable us to capture every detail of your building's infrastructure with precision. We use state-of-the-art equipment and a proven methodology to ensure accurate, actionable results. Here's how we scan your spaces and what we offer to meet your 3D scanning needs.



Equipment installation

The first step in our process is an initial tour of the premises to ensure that everything is in order, and to establish the scanning plan that will be shared among team members. We then install our 3D scanning equipment in strategic locations. We determine the best areas to cover the entire site without leaving any blind spots. Once the 3D scanners are in place, we make sure they are well stabilized to avoid any movement that could distort the readings. Our technicians connect and configure the scanners, adjusting parameters to suit specific site conditions.

Scanning in progress

The actual scanning is carried out with great precision to capture every detail of the site. We plan and execute the scans in a logical sequence to cover the entire area efficiently. Multiple scans from different angles are performed to capture complete detail and avoid shadow areas. During scanning, we monitor data in real time to ensure quality and accuracy.

Field data management

In the field, data management is essential to ensure the accuracy and quality of our surveys. Our technicians check and validate captured data in real time to avoid any loss of information or errors. In addition, we first assemble the point cloud on the tablets to ensure total coverage of the data capture. This enables us to collect accurate, usable results right from the first scanning phase.

Customer interaction

Communication with the customer is crucial to ensure that we meet all their expectations. We hold regular meetings with the customer to discuss progress and answer any questions. If the customer has any specific requests or adjustments to make, we incorporate them immediately into our process.

Scanning is a crucial step in ensuring accurate, detailed surveys. That's why we approach this step with meticulous attention to detail, to ensure we capture the entirety of your infrastructure. By taking into account equipment calibration, strategic site planning, field data management and ongoing communication with our customers, we maximize the efficiency of our projects and the accuracy of our surveys.
