  Introduction If you're in the construction industry, you know that technology has made a significant impact on the way projects are completed. One of the most important technologies for construction is laser scanning.  Laser scanning  has revolutionized the way we capture and document 3D data. In this blog post, we will discuss 5 ways laser scanning can help your construction projects! Improved accuracy and precision Traditional surveying methods can often result in errors or miscalculations, but laser scanning eliminates these issues by capturing data with millimeter precision.  Digital Terrain Model  and Floor Flatness reports can be easily generated using the  LIDAR survey . Enhanced project documentation for project tracking Laser scanning allows for the creation of digital models and  drawings  that can be easily shared and accessed by all project stakeholders. This improved communication leads to a smoother construction process and  c...

  What COP 27 means for real estate and NetZero As the world leaders meet in Egypt for COP 27, the 27th meeting of the parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) treaty, it is important to remember that climate change is still a pressing issue. The Earth is going through a lot of changes, and it is happening faster than we thought it would. The ice caps are melting, sea levels are rising, and we are seeing more extreme weather events. We need to find ways to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions, and this is something that world leaders need to discuss at this meeting. They need to find ways to finance the transition to a low-carbon economy and they need to come up with a plan to implement these changes. This meeting is important, and we need to make sure that world leaders act on climate change. Global leaders are meeting today to discuss the terms of the collective effort to mitigate, finance, and adapt to climate change. The goal of this meeting ...

  What is 3D laser scanning and what are its benefits for businesses and consumers alike Lidar, or Light Detection and Ranging, is a remote sensing technology that uses laser light to create detailed 3D maps/models of an area. Lidar systems are often used for surveying and engineering applications, as they can quickly and accurately collect data about the shape and contours of an area.  BIM , or Building Information Modelling, is a popular application for lidar data. BIM software allows architects and engineers to create virtual models of proposed buildings or structures, allowing for accurate assessment of construction projects.  Lidar  data can also be used by businesses and consumers to create 3D models of their homes or office space. These models can be used for base build contractors, interior design, Process plants, oil refineries, chemical plants, heavy industrial corridors, and Factories to get a better understanding of the layout of a space. In general,...

  Introduction Digital twins are emerging technology when it comes to Built environments and finding their various applications with time. Currently in India, most of the BIM projects are ending with Digital twin maturity of Generating a Geometrical model of the construction site for coordination and visualization purposes. And a few more projects are developing as-built models with enriched Information for documentation and other purposes. The most common use cases of Digital Twin in a Built environment include but doesn’t limit to Indoor condition monitoring, Visualization of Building systems, Zone and space segregation, Maintenance management with predictive analysis, and Energy Management solutions. What is Digital Twin ? ‍ In simple terms, a Digital twin can be defined as a Virtual Representation of a physical entity that possesses all the characteristics and real-time conditions of that physical entity which can be further utilized for various Monitoring and decision-making p...

  Introduction As an owner or developer of commercial  real estate , you are likely always looking for ways to improve your properties and make them more attractive to potential tenants. One way you can do this is by ensuring that your buildings meet environmental, social, and governance (ESG) standards. One way to help ensure that your buildings meet ESG standards is by using Building Information Modelling (BIM). BIM  is a process that provides a three-dimensional representation and database linked to model elements of a building, which can be used for everything from design and construction to ongoing maintenance and operations. By using BIM, you can ensure that your building meets all the necessary ESG criteria, making it more attractive to potential tenants. In addition, using BIM can also help you save money on operating costs by reducing the need for paper records and increasing efficiency in  maintenance and operations . If you are looking for ways to improve ...

  What is Scan to BIM? Scan to BIM  is a process of capturing your Built environment and converting it into a digital model which can be used for planning, monitoring, or managing the built environment, it enhances the proper coordination with stakeholders in sharing the project information. In the present era, there is n number of facilities that were constructed 50 years and 80 years back, there was no  digitalization . In the modern era, we have digital technology to capture data. where we can bring your physical building into a digital Building which helps in pulling out of Geometric and nongeometrical information of your existing building where we create a replica of your physical building into a digital 3d model. We have the in-house capability for doing  laser surveys  and converting into a Digital model of your building, where you can take a virtual tour/  walkthrough  inside the facility and which allows you to get all the geometrical and Non-...

  Introduction Though most property owners implement  BIM  (Building Information Modelling) technology in their capital project development, but most conclude that they did not benefit enough from BIM. One of the major reasons is the lack of strong BIM scope embedded into the contractual scope of the Architect or Other consultants or contractors on the project. Let us together understand how to develop a robust BIM scope as a property owner, developer, or consultant developing BIM scope for your client. Before we dive into the topic let us define a few boundaries for the discussion: 1. Article's primary beneficiary is the property developer or owner or Owner’s representative like project management who is developing a BIM scope of service for the capital project. 2. BIM means Building Information Modelling (BIM) which is a collaborative design development method that leverages 3D geometric embedded with object properties for various use cases during all project/property s...
