"The information we received from GPRS was more than we anticipated and more
detailed and in-depth than we had ever expected to see."

Kristy Carter
Discount Drug Mart

"In a typical building, without the laser scanning capabilities that
TruePoint/GPRS provide, we would have to hire an architect that would have to go
through and do manual assessments and measurements in order to provide us with a
set of drawings that we can actually build off of."

Aaron Seymour
Rudolph Libbe Group

Substantial structural deterioration as per CS-SB5-D does not necessarily
include the following surface imperfections, unless the licensed engineer or
architect determines that they indicate a structural problem:

 * Cracks
 * Distortion
 * Sagging
 * Deflections

 * Misalignments
 * Signs of Leakage
 * Peeling Finishes

NDT tests like UPV and Tomography can help determine the severity of any
underlying issue.

COSTLY MISTAKES DO NOT NEED TO BE ROUTINE

According to a 2022 report in Digital Builder, 69% of projects in the last three
years were 10% or more over budget.
‍
Which means only 31% of projects came in almost on budget – within 10% of their
original estimates.

The 2021 GPRS Market Study by Finch found that 78% of facility managers reported
damage due to a locating issue, with an average cost of $56,000 and two-to-three
months of project delay per event.
‍
And global consulting firm, McKinsey & Company, reports that across all industry
areas, 80% of construction projects finish over budget and suggests the #1 way
to disrupt this troubling trend is to execute rapid digital mapping for greater
accuracy and more immediate results.

The industry is so used to poor locates, as-builts, and communications that most
have built these huge cost overruns into their budgets as routine.
‍
Costly and potentially dangerous mistakes do not need to be routine.

‍It is impossible to execute a great plan on time and on budget if it is built
on incomplete or incorrect data.

It is possible to greatly reduce or even eliminate cost overruns when you have
accurate data delivered in easy-to-understand formats before you execute your
project.
"Thank you for the 3D Model. You found all of the parts we were looking for with
great accuracy. We were very pleased to see you found the “X” brace and the gas
pipe under the feeder in your scan images."
- Brian B. - Technical Lead - R&D
3D laser scanning allows you to capture complete as-builts in a fraction of the
time of hand measuring, with 2-4 mm accuracy. In most cases our Project Managers
can scan a project in a day or two and our design team can quickly interpret
that data into the maps, models, and drawings you need. This allows you to
assess any location with precision and confidently execute your vision in days
instead of weeks or months, while further reducing costs by cutting down on
inaccuracies and mistakes.

Thank you so much for how quickly you pulled this together for us. Our end goal
was to have a full-scale clean 3D surface body of a model that we can import
into Solid Works, pull measurements from, and build models around. The file
looks great and will work perfectly
- John M. – Mechanical Engineer
GPRS TruePoint Laser Scanning was a great partner to The Virginia Air and Space
Science Center. The team at TruePoint was open and honest about the pricing and
process. I was even happier when I heard they were able to meet an already tight
deadline and budget. TruePoint had a quick turnaround on deliverables that saved
time within the project. We look forward to working with them on future
projects.
- Michael T. – Director Of Facilities, The Virginia Air And Space Science Center
You did a great job! The Revit model was very useful, it gave us a great
starting point to build our design model. The fly-through was just as helpful.
Doing a normal field investigation you never seem to get the picture you need.
With the fly-through, I can get any angle needed -- not to mention -- having it
during a meeting when something comes up clients want to see. We have used other
scanning firms for smaller scale projects and haven’t had the same results. You
guys were very professional and met every deliverable that was promised, even on
the tight schedule. If and when we are doing a project of this scale we will
keep you mind.
- Bradford S. – Mechanical Designer
Thanks for jumping into this assignment so quickly. What a great and productive
trip. You guys work tirelessly, non-stop with all aspects of the setup and
execution. Your ability to master the technology is a game changer for us.
- Don A. – Executive Vice President, Director Of Architecture, Engineering &
Technology

HOW THE TECHNOLOGY WORKS

3D laser scanners use LiDAR (light detection and ranging) to measure and record
precise locations and distances, ultimately producing a point cloud file.

The primary way a laser scanner works is to send light pulses at high speed
which reflect off objects and return to the scanner’s sensor (LiDAR). For each
pulse, the distance between the scanner and object is measured by determining
the elapsed time between the sent and received pulses. Each data point is
converted to a pixel with a known x, y, and z coordinate.

Millions of data points from multiple positions and viewpoints are captured and
processed into a point cloud, creating an accurate 3D as-built data set of the
site. This all happens very quickly, with some scanners, like our Leica RTC360,
capturing and calculating 2 million points per second with 2-4 mm accuracy.

While the applications of LiDAR and laser scanning are almost limitless, there
are specific formats that allow our design team to deliver customized solutions
for your needs.


POINT CLOUD CREATION

Our 3D scanning service delivers unmatched site documentation with a variety of
professional 3D laser scanners, including the Leica P-Series and RTC360
scanners. Each time we execute a 3D scan, we capture a point cloud. Our point
clouds capture millions of data points from multiple on-site locations using
LiDAR technology, giving you unrivaled image fidelity of up to 2-4 mm accuracy
and up to 2 million 3D data points captured per second. You can learn more about
how to laser scan a building, here: (How To 3D Laser Scan A Building
(truepointscanning.com)


AS-BUILTS

As-builts have never been more accurate than with 3D laser scan technology. GPRS
captures the exact building dimensions, locations, and layout – information that
is crucial to the success of your project. Items are often moved, added, or
removed from the original plan, making as-builts invaluable for design,
construction, renovation, and facility modifications.


3D BIM MODELING

3D BIM models are accurate digital representations of a building or site to
facilitate design, construction and operational processes. 3D BIM models
provide clients with the ability to break down architectural, structural and MEP
building features and see how they fit into a single finalized structure. Users
can isolate and alter walls, columns, windows, doors, etc. to support the
planning and design needs of any project.


CLASH DETECTION / PREFABRICATION

3D laser scanning captures as-built site conditions with a high level of
precision, helping to identify potential clashes, fabricate components and plan
a flawless installation. Information can be shared with other teams to ensure
everyone is on the same page and can coordinate their work effectively. This
saves time, money and headaches by preventing costly modifications in the field.


MIXED REALITY DEVELOPMENT MODELS

3D laser scanning can be used to create 3D models and 3D mesh files for use in
mixed reality, projection mapping and 3D gaming. 3D laser scan technology
documents real-world environments with millimeter precision and reconstructs
them into a dimensionally accurate, 3D digital representation. Assets are
delivered in high detail with texture, making them the perfect element for
stunning visualization applications.


ADVANCE ANALYSIS

We provide high-precision, custom analysis and calculations, such as dimensional
callouts, tank calibration analysis, prefabrication of panels, accident
analysis, floor flatness and levelness analysis (FF & FL), deviation analysis,
deformation analysis, new construction verification, volume calculations, wall
plumb analysis, staircases, elevator shaft analysis, and so much more. The data
gathered by laser scanning is a powerful tool for solving complex challenges.


AERIAL DRONE VIDEO AND PHOTOGRAMMETRY

Our FAA-licensed pilots provide aerial video, property imaging, building
imaging, and photogrammetry services. We use HD video and HD photo cameras to
capture aerial video and photos. We offer safe, accurate, and cost-effective
data collection for vast, dangerous, or hard-to-reach areas.


ABOVE AND BELOW GROUND DATA CAPTURE

The combination of laser scanning and ground penetrating radar captures precise
documentation to visualize your facility effectively and accurately, above and
below ground. With this fully integrated service, you receive clear and
understandable findings of structural, MEP, and field markings in point cloud
data format, 2D site plans and 3D models. This accurate data allows clients to
expedite design planning, extract 3D coordinates and measure distances, along
with the ability to mark-up and share this with project teams. Receiving
critical site information will lower project risks and increase project
efficiency.

3D laser scan technology provides a clear, cost-effective solution to your
as-built and facility visualization needs. It can reduce and even eliminate
costly errors to speed up your design, engineering, and construction process.
