In order to <strong>recreate facilities digitally<\/strong>, the asset is laser scanned to capture an accurate millimeter-scale representation of the surroundings. Millions of 3D points on an object surface are captured and each points&#8217; coordinates are recorded. This allows an object&#8217;s actual surface to be represented in a discrete model with incredible accuracy. Additionally, these laser scans enable our engineering teams to safely explore hazardous facilities and ensure their designs incorporate specific site features.<\/p>\n<p>Using this technology
