Keep your projects on track with fast, safe, and flexible data collection using Hovermap, a smart LiDAR scanning unit. The mobile scanner enables data capture up to seven times faster than traditional methods.

Use Hovermap to produce accurate and dense data that can be easily processed into project deliverables. Capture high resolution, true-color point clouds to create digital twins of any assets such as bridges, buildings, communications towers, tunnels, and many more.

Fast and easily repeatable scans allow you to verify construction and identify potential issues early to reduce rework, helping to keep your project on track and within budget.

AWARD WINNING

USE HOVERMAP IN CONSTRUCTION & ENGINEERING FOR

PROJECT PROGRESS MONITORING

A quick data capture process allows for regular scans to monitor construction to ensure the project is tracking against project timelines and is in line with the proposed design.

IMPROVED COLLABORATION

Keep project stakeholders up to date with current data from quick, regular scans. The same datasets can be used across the lifecycle of a project – in design, construction and maintenance.

EXPEDITED PLANNING & DESIGN

One quick scan can provide a wealth of understanding of the existing site conditions for new preliminary design work. Use the data to position the project virtually and determine cut, fill, and drainage.

IMPROVED DECISION MAKING

Scanning versatility allows you to capture the entire asset, from the roof to all the nooks and crannies, ensuring you don’t miss a single detail – especially not the one that could result in a poor decision being made.

RESTORATION WORK

Quickly capture accurate as-built data of older structures where no current data exists. Restoration work can then be easily planned with this newly digitized structure, saving time and providing the documentation for future improvements.

INCREASE YOUR COMPETITIVENESS

Capture the required data from large areas in less time than traditional methods. Use the most appropriate deployment method for the job (handheld, backpack, drone, vehicle) and merge the results into one unified dataset.

Engineering & Construction Applications

Construction Monitoring

Ensure projects are staying on time, on budget, and to design.

Maintenance Planning

Use the accurate data of existing structures to plan maintenance and facility management.

Construction As-Builts

Capture an accurate as-built condition of existing structures to plan extensions.

Cultural Heritage

Digitize older structures to update records, plan restoration work, or preserve details for virtual study.

Asset Inspection

Easily capture LiDAR data and inspect images of an entire asset, it’s a bridge, tunnel, or anything in between. View the capture in real-time to be confident you’ve achieved complete coverage before leaving the site.

Site Planning

Quickly capture an existing building or construction site for project planning and design. The model can also be used to reduce unnecessary on-site visits with virtual walkthroughs.

Facade Inspection

Surveying and inspecting building facades is easy with Hovermap’s drone based Collision Avoidance, ensuring capture is possible in challenging GPS compromised urban environments.

Building Internals

Quickly walk Hovermap through the internals of a building to capture a detailed point cloud to create accurate floor plans or capture internal measurements.

Stakeholder Engagement

Hovermap’s point cloud data provides a richly detailed digital version of the project to share with stakeholders. Enhance visualization with colorized point clouds to improve project understanding.

CUSTOMERS USING HOVERMAP

WHY HOVERMAP FOR CONSTRUCTION & ENGINEERING?

SPEED OF CAPTURE

Hovermap’s SLAM-based mobile mapping allows for the capture of data up to seven times faster than traditional methods. The powerful combination of precision engineering, world-leading SLAM algorithms, and robust drone autonomy capability provides accurate LiDAR mapping.

UNIQUE VERSATILITY

The plug and play design and quick-release mechanism allow easy switching between modes. Use Hovermap as a handheld scanner; attached to a drone, vehicle, or pole; lowered in a cage; or mounted to a backpack to easily collect data anywhere. The compact, lightweight design makes it easy to carry and provides longer flight time.

ACCURATE, ADAPTABLE DATA

The accurate and dense point clouds captured by Hovermap can easily be processed into necessary project deliverables, including CAD and 3D BIM models, using industry standard tools, such as PointCab, PointFuse, or Revit/AutoCAD.
