扫描，跨度和汽车

Author:Christopher Dollard

As part of Northern Ireland’s ‘Building a Better Future’ strategy to make it a better place to ‘live, work, learn and grow’, Amey Roads NI (ARNI) was tasked with building, operating and delivering improvements to a strategic road network across Northern Ireland (DBFO Package 2). But managing such acomplex infrastructurehad its challenges - from costly road closures to interpreting hand drawings from the 1960s. ARNI had its work cut out, so it turned to thelatest reality capture technology， 这Leica BLK360，，，，to create accurate3D点云and images of the projects.

道路基础设施管理的复杂性

阿尼负责540 lane-kilometres of motorway and trunk road，，，，140 bridges和辅助结构。该公司雇用Amey Consulting来管理新的和现有高速公路资产的生命周期风险概况，并桥梁的完整调查计划基本的维修和改进工作，并作为常规检查计划的一部分。所有这些都始终保持道路打开，结构始终运行 - 绝非易事。任何封路不仅会使公司的钱损失，而且还要花费大量冗长的计划，更不用说中断交通流量了。

BLK360成像激光扫描仪旨在专门解决此类挑战。Arni获得了BLK360并开始survey the bridges, create reference modelsandexact 3D scans支持补救工作和定期安全检查。使用直观的激光扫描仪及其iPad软件Recap Pro，surveying bridges became a far simpler process。一个工人可以安全地停在高速公路的硬肩上，在press of a button，，，，scan the entire underside of the bridge,securing detailed 360 degree，，，，HDR球形图像和准确的点云几分钟。

The scans provide3D点云，桥梁及其周围环境的图像以及扫描注释突出了混凝土分层和裸露的加固。这有帮助quickly identify the exact location and nature of defects或失修的领域，而不是需要interpret site notes，，，，草图andimages。设计团队使用Civil 3D中的点云到create surfaces，，，，elevationand部分图纸和计划维修工作 - 包括需要哪些零件，材料和资源 - 更有效。一旦修复工作完成，重复扫描就可以为健康和安全文件生成完整的记录记录，并可用于证实工作的完成并授权付款。

无路可退

使用BLK360，Arni现在可以及时，准确地进行了对高速公路桥梁的检查。对于日常使用，BLK360非常便携，并且Recap Pro iPad软件非常方便使用的。与传统的调查相比，它产生高度德泰led and accurate data在每个扫描中。

ARNI recognised that the BLK360 would quickly return a sizable cost saving against the initial outlay. For example, previously, it could cost up to 4,000 British pounds (4,456 euros) to arrange a total road closure needed to complete a full bridge survey – and, over140 bridges，很快就加起来了。使用BLK360允许Arni准确地快速捕获所有基本数据，而无需昂贵和破坏性的道路封闭和交通管理。对于现在可以从坚硬的肩膀或安全障碍后面完成工作的测量师，这也使它更安全，从而消除了站在道路中间的需要。

The depth of detail captured by the BLK360 surpasses anything ARNI was able to capture previously. The scans are passed to designers, allowing them to immediately see where remedial work is needed, rather than having to interpret different plans, drawings and notes.“手写笔记的日子已经一去不复返了，并在照片中放大了，没有人能弄清楚我们正在看的结构的哪一部分！”Amey Roads NI的生命周期项目经理John Jordan说。“The BLK360 has already proven itself as an integral part of our team, and we look forward to continue exploring the possibilities of the BLK360 and identifying new ways it can transform our work, create efficiencies and reduce costs.”

Jordan was awarded the company’s Amey Consulting Award in the ‘Putting People First’ category for his 2018 work with the BLK360. This specific category recognises individuals, teams or projects that have demonstrated the greatest impact on overall employee safety and wellbeing.“ BLK360技术的使用有助于将测量师从Harm的方式中删除，包括许多风险的工作，包括高速公路上的DBFO2工作，”约旦说。
