McKim & Creed, one of the largest engineering and surveying firms in the United States, announces the addition of the NavVis VLX to its mobile LiDAR collection capabilities.
The NavVis VLX is a wearable mobile survey system that captures survey-grade point clouds (up to an accuracy of 8-mm) and high-resolution pictures in difficult interior and outdoor contexts, such as buildings and bridges. The NavVis VLX provides total 360-degree data capture thanks to two LiDAR sensors and four cameras.
“With this cutting-edge technology, we will be able to better support our architectural partners by leveraging this scan-to-BIM and scan-to-CAD capability,” said McKim & Creed Senior Vice President Matt Daves, PE, LEED AP, CBCP.
“The result of the point cloud data captured in the built environment will now deliver accurate as-built BIM models and CAD drawings in Revit, Autocad and Archicad.”
“McKim & Creed invests in the latest geospatial technology which allows us to provide the best method possible in helping our clients solve complex infrastructure challenges,” said McKim & Creed Senior Vice President Tom Ruschkewicz.
“This new reality capture technology enhances our existing specialized geospatial services and provides robust options to give our clients the data they need.”
