When Safety is a Must

As well as providing benefits in regards to project speed and deliverables, terrestrial scanning has huge safety benefits. With workplace health and safety an ever growing concern, safe work procedures are an ever growing issue and access to hazardous sites can often be impossible. Since all scanning works are performed remotely most safety concerns are alleviated by ensuring staff have little or no need to enter hazardous and dangerous sites. The included images are of extremely busy road and rail corridors where conventional detail surveys were required. Scanning was selected as the preferred methodology as staff were not required to physically access the hazardous areas and the total time spent on site was also greatly reduced. The final product was coded strings that seamlessly integrated into adjoining conventional detail works.
