Advance security work: Anticipate, plan, prepare with the Leica BLK3D Imager

As a security professional working in close protection, you know best what your job is: Assessing the level of the possible threats, vulnerabilities and risks for those entrusted to your care. You anticipate, plan, and prepare for any possible and sometimes even unthinkable outcomes. You ask yourself many questions starting with “what if”. And, you find answers for them. This is the purpose of reconnaissance and advance security work.

Sometimes, security professionals have enough time and resources to prepare comprehensive plans and advanced security reports. Sometimes, everything needs to be done very quickly with the best possible results. No matter how long you spend on reconnaissance, you are still faced with the same issues when conducting the mission - route selection and identification of danger areas and vulnerability points, like traffic, tunnels, bridges, park areas, etc. Extremely important are location checks of, for instance, venues or buildings where those you are protecting will meet with their audiences.

Assessing the threat

Gathering this and much more information is called threat intelligence. Let’s look at documenting venues for the purpose of gathering threat intelligence.

The information you gather here for is a full address, map reference, GPS coordinates, relevant phone numbers, among others. And blueprints. What if there are no blueprints available? Or they have not been updated since the last renovation?

This is where the Leica BLK3D Imager real-time, in-picture 3D measurement solution comes in. With the handheld, professional-grade measurement device for fast and comprehensive documentation in 2D and/or 3D, you can recon venues, buildings and other locations of interest. The results can be easily included in your advance security report as pdf, 2D plans, pictures and 3D in-picture measurements.

And, you can be sure you will not miss any details.

BLK3D可以简单地通过其5.0英寸LCD多触摸显示器进行操作，就像在智能手机上使用的那样。用BLK3D拍摄照片和测量距离非常简单且直观，并且不需要在系统中进行任何冗长的培训或指导。

进行位置检查并记录您有时可能会问自己问题的地点：

• Where is my data?
• Where is this measurement?
• Didn´t I take it?

Isn´t it painful, if you miss out an important measurement during the reconnaissance on site? Isn´t it painful to have transposed digits in your sketch? Isn´t it painful if you can´t read what you wrote on site anymore when you are back in the office? Isn´t it painful, when you can´t remember anymore where you have taken the picture?

Developing the threat plan with the BLK3D Imager

I´m sure that everybody came across at least one of the mentioned points. Wouldn´t it be good to have a solution to avoid these pain points? The BLK3D helps professionals to avoid transposed digits, missing measurements, inaccurate measurements, and you can even measure in 3D within your taken pictures. Then, you can sketch your rooms or buildings. By using the BLK3D, you can not only simply avoid the mentioned errors, you can even save a lot of time on site, and, even better, you can create a pdf-report that you can directly send to your supervisor and your colleagues in the office.

您已经可以从威胁评估开始，并使用BLK3D桌面软件进行风险分析。此外，通过使用摄影测量法将拍照图片转换为3D点云，您甚至可以创建一个3D模型，从而使您可以实际上“浏览”场地的数字双胞胎。您已经可以在办公室里准备运营团队成员，当他们到达目的地时，他们会知道所有必要的检查站，并且会立即感到舒适和安全，因为他们实际上已经在模型中了，并且熟悉细节。

No doubt about it, conducting reconnaissance is a tough and comprehensive task. With tools like the BLK3D, every security professional can save time on scene; gather, correct and complete your reconnaissance and threat plan with data, pictures, and measurements of your venue; easily identify vulnerable points; and determine the assets your need for preventing possible threats.
