Measuring an engine room with traditional methods becomes a nightmare for a project engineer because of the complexity and the strict time schedules of the vessel’s program that complicate the accurate and complete surveying. Additional many ships have not as-built drawings updated with any modifications. Terrestrial LIDAR technology is the state-of-the-art solution for such kind of cases. METRICA was contracted to scan a pump room to produce and deliver the accurate 3d model of the area. Our team used Leica ScanStation P20 to do the necessary fieldwork. We completed our job via 20 laser scanner setups in one working day.
With the Leica ScanStation P20 and the support of the Leica Cyclone and CloudWorx software, the scans of the pump room were measured, registered and processed to the same coordinate system. For the registration of the scans, our team used smart targets for accurate results.In the office, our team used Leica Cyclone software for the registration of the scans.
