Ground Based Reality Capture

The Basics

Ground-based reality capture uses advanced LiDAR and imaging technology to create detailed 3D models of your site from the ground level. This data provides dependable measurements, supports thorough condition assessments, and enables more effective project planning without repeated site visits. The result is streamlined workflows, consistent results, and improved collaboration across your team.

** Data collected by Foley through mapping and LiDAR services is not performed by a licensed surveyor or engineer and does not constitute a certified survey or engineering product as defined under Louisiana law. If licensed certification or approval is required, Foley will engage a qualified third-party licensed contractor.

The Device

Foley Specialty Services uses an advanced all-in-one reality capture device that combines dual multilayer LiDAR sensors with SLAM software to produce high density point clouds. Four integrated cameras capture high resolution, 360° imagery for a complete and detailed visual record of your site. This system streamlines scanning, delivering results up to 10 times faster than traditional terrestrial laser scanners.

The Platform

We use NavVis IVION software to host and manage your digital twins, providing secure, browser based access to detailed 3D models of your facilities from anywhere in the world. This powerful platform allows you to navigate through your site virtually, take measurements, and tag important assets or locations for quick reference. With features like multiuser collaboration, panoramic imagery, and seamless data integration, NavVis IVION transforms your digital twin into a fully interactive tool for planning, inspections, and asset management.
