3D Laser Scanning / High-Definition Survey

Nave Newell utilizes 3D laser scanning technology to provide clients with unprecedented speed, accuracy and comprehensiveness in field survey and as-built generation.  The high speed laser scanner quickly and safely collects millions of points to create a measurable 3D point cloud that is impossible to match with conventional survey methods.

Our High-Definition Survey team includes licensed surveyors and engineers that offer cost-effective data collection solutions. Before scanning in the field, we work closely with clients to identify design and construction requirements, recommend survey approaches and develop deliverables that best meet their needs whether it is a measurable point cloud, 2D plan, surface mesh model or a BIM-ready spatial model.  We continue to assist the client in their use of the data for early identification of design and construction conflicts. 

The High-Definition Survey Department provides services for the following applications:
