MSE Engenharia was responsible for the As Built survey using 3D scanning with a Laser Scanner at the terminal of Cattalini Terminals, in Paranaguá, Paraná.
Recognized as the largest independent private liquid bulk terminal in Brazil, Cattalini entrusted MSE Engenharia with carrying out a point cloud survey, with millimeter precision, to faithfully record the real dimensions and positions of the existing elements. The work includes the complete field scan, the treatment and the unification of the collected data, in addition to the 3D modeling of the entire surveyed area.
As Built Survey | Laser Scanner | Point Cloud | Data Processing | 3D Modeling
The laser scanner is a cutting-edge technology that uses laser beams to capture, in an extremely precise way, the physical characteristics of an environment or structure. This capture generates a cloud of three-dimensional dots that faithfully represent the scanned space. From this point cloud, it is possible to create detailed and georeferenced 3D models, essential for the analysis, planning, and execution of projects in various areas, such as engineering, architecture and civil construction.
These models allow us to visualize and simulate the real environment with millimeter precision, being especially valuable in retrofit projects, where it is necessary to work with existing structures and ensure that new interventions are perfectly integrated. The laser scanner is also widely used in topographic surveys, historical heritage documentation, and in the analysis of complex infrastructures, such as industrial plants and piping systems.
In addition to precision, the laser scanner offers benefits such as the reduction of rework, optimization of budgets and schedules, and greater safety in interventions, since it allows a detailed analysis even before the start of the works. This results in significant time and cost savings, while increasing project quality and reliability.
Technical record of the actual building conditions and existing systems, ensuring the updating and reliability of the information.
Three-dimensional survey by laser scanning, ensuring high precision in capturing existing geometries.
Generation of the point cloud from 3D scanning, serving as a technical basis for analysis and modeling.
Processing and organization of the captured data, ensuring quality, precision, and compatibility with modeling software.
Development of the three-dimensional model from the point cloud, facilitating visualization, compatibility, and decision-making.
