FAQs

3D laser scanning helps record accurate information about the existing condition of ships and other marine structures to ensure the ultimate success of engineering projects. This technique involves the use of 3D laser scanners that help in capturing millions of points for the creation of real point cloud data on the current condition of the marine infrastructure.

Marine laser scanning can be done in a single day, and for smaller operations such as BWTS or scrubbing water system retrofits, it can also be performed while the crew is on board. It helps shipowners and shipyards to plan and design refits and renovations and begin work as soon as the vessel reaches the repair dock.

3D laser scanning helps create 3D models for conversion and refitting projects, facilitating the process of repairing and maintaining the marine fleet and reducing operational downtime by ensuring all the vessels are fully functional at all times. Accurate and comprehensive 3D surveys help shipowners and shipyards ensure the efficiency of all the ships, streamlining the whole operation.

The conventional 3D laser scanning technique can save significant costs in the data acquisition, processing, and analysis stages. Moreover, this method also saves time by eliminating the need for manual measurements, reducing site time, and minimising overall operational downtime.
