From paper maps to laser scans

激光扫描以及GNSS和遥感，在过去几年中彻底改变了测量行业。由于有可能在相对较短的时间内捕获大量数据，因此激光扫描仪是收集从简单地形调查到3D模型以保留文化遗​​产的数据的必备仪器。

Future surveyors and Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) professionals will need to be equipped with the right tools and be trained with the skills to solve challenges for a wide range of applications to keep up with competition and react to business opportunities.

Digiscript Philippines Inc., a company specialised in 3D measurement and digital building modelling technology solutions, conducted a hands-on training program for students of Don Bosco Technical College (DBTC) in the Mandaluyong Philippines on how to use laser scanning technology and imparted the benefits of this technology to help them develop new skills in their field.

实践HDS

As processes digitise and businesses digitalise, surveyors will have to adapt new trends to offer better, faster and more specialised services to their clients. Unfortunately, 3D laser scanning training is rarely available in civil engineering and land surveying programmes. Additionally, private companies may offer training at a high cost inaccessible to most surveying students.

意识到学生应将笔和纸质地图抛在一边，并准备通过向学生介绍高清测量（HDS）来数字地收集和分享信息，从而激发了年轻的潜在测量师。该公司的专家向工程学和建筑师学生教授了HDS申请，以实现肥大，工程和遗产保护。

作为教学议程的一部分，Digiscript对DBTC的旧建筑进行了实际的3D激光调查，并通过动手培训如何安装Leica Cyclone Point Cloud处理和建模软件，如何导航和可视化3D点云，以及如何准备成构建的图纸。由于Leica ScanStation C10的多功能性和易用性，学生能够在很短的时间内学习如何在很短的时间内使用扫描仪。

“It is very important for us students to stay updated with the latest technology,” said Eric Solis, architecture student at DBTC.

DBTC的工程专业学生Paulo Riviera继续说：“我们很高兴知道有更有效的制作图纸的方法。”

Universities and colleges have to adopt in their curricula the latest changes in surveying and documentation to offer the skills that professionals need to meet the industry’s demands for 3D laser scanning technology. Knowing the benefits that laser scanning offers, students will be able to identify and create business opportunities and keep up with the competition.

“Exposing technical college students to HDS technology will prove to be advantageous in the educational field for engineering students and also for future HDS projects in the community at large,” said Ronald Sampayan, director of Digiscript for the Philippines and Indonesia and engineer alumni of DBTC.

Preserving the past to teach the future generation

While teaching students the benefits of laser scanning technology, Digiscript scanned the old building of DBTC, a building that has witnessed 300 years of history, and has an educational institution for technical professionals for more than 60 years.

The data generated from the laser scanning helped Digiscript to create as-built drawings in 2D and 3D for the conservation and building plan of DBTC’s old building. The deliverables also included a fly through 3D animation of the college that will help marketing the school to increase its exposure.

“This is a historical event where the old building will be preserved forever,” concluded Fr. Demetrio Carmona, vice-rector of DBTC.

带头

Digisript于2008年在菲律宾开创了HDS。从那时起，该公司一直在为各种行业提供定制的3D解决方案。

“Delivering value is what we guarantee,” expressed Conrad Alampay, president of Digiscript.

Whether it is ensuring a clash free Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing (MEP) design, fabrication of support structures or pipes, understanding the general topography of a site, or capturing the intricate geometries seen in historic sites, Digiscript has been generating business in a developing emerging market with Leica Geosystems laser scanning technology.

“We empower our customers by providing results using Leica Geosystems solutions to help them measure, manage, design and visualise the current physical environment so that a comprehensive and unified understanding of their sites is obtained,” said Sampayan. “It is through this understanding that ideas are formed, visions become clear, and avenues for taking action are revealed in the ultimate goal of shaping a progressive tomorrow.”
