handover for asset management

Vivid VR PointCloud Imaging
for planning, design, construction and marketing.

Fast track briefing and project understanding. 
Accurate photographic records in 3D model context, geo located and accurate to 99.6% (we say 99%).

 

Showcasing for sales and marketing

Project showcasing for portfolios

The finished building at its shining best. An immersive VR world featuring the project in its optimum condition. Completed projects can now be experienced rather than photographed. 

Potential clients can visit projects without hinderance to current occupants. Provide a comprehensive walkthrough of the completed vision in pristine handover condition. Mark up the model inside the VR environment to create presentation notes and selling information including videos, texts and links. 

For developers architects, designers, engineers and collaborators it is the ideal way to communicate your building for marketing and capability profiles. 


Handover for ongoing asset management.

Leverage for the Long Term

Turn over your documentation to the building owner for long-term facilities management. The owner will be pleased to have this easy-to-use treasure trove of information for future maintenance and renovations.

It's not just 3D Showcase online. There's a lot of assets that you can download and include as part of your physical or digital turnover package. 

  • Schematic floor plans, 

  • Colorized point cloud (.XYZ)

  • Floor Plan and reflected ceiling plan image

  • (.JPG) Multiple files if multiple floors

  • (.PDF) All floors in one file

  • (.JPG) Multiple files if multiple floors

  • (.PDF) All floors in one file

  • 3D mesh file (.OBJ)

  • 2D Snapshots

  • 360º Snapshots

  • Teaser Videos

  • Point Clouds, open in Recap, Revit, or AutoCAD


Documenting

Scan Current Conditions

For as-builts and construction documentation the photographic record is in 3D model context, geo located and accurate to 99.6% (we say 99%). Capture construction conditions for documentation and as-built conditions as a single file. A revolution when compared to managing and tagging individual photos.

The easy-to-explore, immersive 3D model can be downloaded as an OBJ or point cloud and imported into Autodesk Revit™. Vivid VR PointCloud Imaging can be a great template to fast track existing conditions models.

A unified medium to consolidate your project documents into a few models that can be easily annotated and shared. Architectural, structural, and MEP designs created from real world conditions. Ideal for phase documentation as part of a turnover package. The end client will continue to use it for long-term management and maintenance.

Milestone Documentation

A single PointCloud Image can replace thousands of traditional 2D photos. With the immersive 360º walkthrough, documentation is both engaging and enjoyable. 2D photos, reflected ceiling plan images and high resolution floorplan images can be exported.

Simplify 3D Construction Documentation

Keep track of key project milestones and assess project status easily.


Pitch, Design, Collaborate

Team  Collaboration

Mark up the model using text, image or video annotation. Multiple access logins for the model allows different disciplines to communicate through the model. Spatially aware markup for walls, surfaces, objects means clarity and precision in communication. Fast working knowledge. Meet, view, discuss, document in the VR model. Dramatic efficiencies are posssible in the work flow. The point cloud model can be exported to Autodesk ReCap® or Revit® for fast tracking project development.

Existing Condition Survey

Fast track briefing and project understanding. Annotate, share, measure. It's easy to tag locations with more info and even create a visual punchlist. Then share a link and stakeholders can explore the 3D Space right from their web browser. Finally, export assets (point cloud, reflected ceiling and floor plan images, 3D mesh file, 2D photos, and more) and continue working in other software that you already use.

Export Point Clouds to ACAD

Use a point cloud as a real-world template to kickstart the as-built design process using export a registered, colored point cloud that is ready for Autodesk® ReCap.

Measure Offsite

Efficiancy for the whole team. No need for return site visits when you have a complete 3D model. As-built engineers can reference the complete space throughout the design process, collecting virtual measurements whenever they need to. As built documentation has never been easier.

Annotate, & Communicate

Get stakeholders on the same page and give them the detail they need. Tag complicated areas with more information. Highlight what's most important with a Guided Tour. Get the point cloud that accurately details current conditions and then export to Revit to compare with the original design.

Fast track site understanding

Surveyors, engineers, architects and designers gain extraordinary insights though online exploration of the model. Cut down site visits and lost time involved in gaining and retaining base level understandings of the building. Visit anytime, solve problems by accessing the data rich model.

Pre-construction Evaluation

What’s in the basement? How do the foundations look? What are the services like? What are the access points? What kind of team do we need to assemble for the project? Can we get valuable insights from our group before we progress? Valuable insights into early project and team viability.
