3D LASER SCANNING SERVICES
INDUSTRIES WE SERVE
Over 20 years of experience
DBS has emerged as a preeminent provider of comprehensive 3D scanning services, standing at the forefront of technological integration in various sectors including aviation, construction, higher education, water treatment facilities and more.
Our cutting-edge 3D laser scanning technology enables precise capture of complex environments, translating physical spaces into accurate digital twins with unparalleled detail. This prowess in creating high-fidelity models serves as a critical tool in the lifecycle of a project, from initial conception through renovation or expansion.
AVIATION
In the aviation industry, the integration of services like Scan to BIM (Building Information Modeling) and 3D laser scanning is transforming the way infrastructure, aircraft, and maintenance facilities are managed and developed. Aviation facilities are complex environments that require the highest levels of precision and safety standards, and the accuracy and efficiency provided by DBS’s advanced technological services are indispensable.
REAGAN NATIONAL AIRPORT | REVIT MODEL
Our primary goal was to scan the current state of the BHS and generate a precise Revit model, thereby enabling our General Contractor (GC) client to streamline their Building Information Modeling (BIM) process.
PALM BEACH INT. AIRPORT | BHS IMPROVEMENT
The scope of the model was comprehensive, encompassing not only the visible infrastructure but also the intricate interstitial spaces above the Baggage Handling System (BHS) at PBI.
WASTE WATER TREATMENT
Wastewater treatment plants are complex systems, often spread across large areas and consisting of various tanks, piping, and equipment that operate in concert to treat and process waste.
The precision and efficiency afforded by 3D scanning and BIM services are invaluable for the enhancement and optimization of these facilities.
DBS’s Scan to BIM services converts the detailed point cloud data gathered through 3D scanning into intelligent BIM models. These models become a living repository for the wastewater facility, embedding crucial information such as dimensions, material specifications, and operational data within a rich, interactive framework.
HARRY TRACY WATER TREATMENT PLANT | BIM
The Harry Tracy Water Treatment Plant in San Bruno, CA required a major update to make the facility more seismically sound, to improve water treatment capacity and maximize overall reliability.
UNIVERSITIES
For universities looking to expand or renovate their campuses, DBS’s suite of 3D laser scanning and Scan to BIM services offers a strategic advantage in planning and execution.
Educational institutions are often spread out over large areas, encompassing a mix of historic buildings and modern facilities that serve a multitude of purposes from classrooms to research labs.
The precision, speed, and flexibility provided by DBS’s technological solutions are invaluable for maintaining the continuity of education and campus life while managing construction projects.
MCNEESE STATE UNIVERSITY | VIDEO WALKTHROUGH
After scanning 20,000 square feet of interior space, the DBS project at McNeese State University’s Engineering Building and Lab resulted in the creation of an innovative and immersive interactive video walkthrough.
HOSPITALITY
In the hospitality sector, where guest experience and operational efficiency are paramount, DBS’s proficiency in 3D laser scanning and Scan to BIM services offers a significant edge to hotels undergoing expansions and renovations.
Hotels are unique in their operational demands, often housing a complex web of guest amenities, service areas, and mechanical systems within a single footprint. The detailed and expedient insights provided by DBS’s technological solutions are critical for minimizing disruption to guests and staff while maximizing the potential of property upgrades or changes.
