Project Highlight: 3D Facility Simulation

Our team of engineers and surveyors scanned a large oil and gas facility and converted the scan to models in a virtual reality environment for safety training and disposition of assets. The procedure was as follows:

• Scan the entire environment using terrestrial scanners and UAV’s
• Convert the point clouds to models
• Texture the models
• Create the 3D environment
• Utilize the Oculus Rift to move through the facility in 3D
• Create waypoints in the environment for audio/visual safety training.

Additionally, the point cloud (accurate within 4mm) was provided to the companies engineering division for further expansion of the facility.
