Erdman Anthony's 3-D laser scanning capabilities
Laser scanning, also known as LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging), provides highly concentrated 3-D data points of site features. Cumulatively, the data points are referred to as “point clouds.” Erdman Anthony uses scanners that collect data at a rate of up to one million points per second. The process not only reduces data collection time, but also provides a much greater level of detail than conventional survey methods and provides information ready for the virtual work environment. |

The Virtual Work Environment
- Gives you the ability to adapt to changing ideas
- Provides access to tools and data that allows you to test ideas
- Enables long-term data storage
- Allows team member collaboration from any location
- Gives you the ability to examine captured data not included in original scope
- Compatible with AutoCAD, Microstation, Revit, LAS, and ASCII

Greater design power and capabilities
Scan these benefits:
- Provides highly concentrated 3-D data points of existing site features
- Measures directly to an object with a laser, so physical contact with that object is unnecessary
- Allows safer and less intrusive field data collection during daily site or facility operations
- Collects increased level of detail
- Reduces data collection time
- Eliminates the need, with overall point cloud, for return trips to the field should a client request additional data
