Managed Geospatial Services™ Documenting Indoor and Outdoor Assets

3D documentation using laser scanning is widely accepted by the Architectural, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry. Scan to Building Information Modeling (BIM) can transition to become the foundation to link business attributes to create intelligent asset management systems.  BIM is recognized as the most trusted solution to prove as-built or as-building conditions. Quality 3D Geospatial data generates greater business value or can help governments reduce operational costs. Creating a holistically managed Geospatial ecosystem will propel your organization into the future.

SAM offers a full range of  Managed Geospatial Services™ to support infrastructure improvements and managing assets. We are fueling progress through technological innovation. Reality Modeling, Scan-to-BIM, and Digital Twins are part of our innovative services. We have the trusted knowledge and the highest level of professional accreditations to support a full suite of  Managed Geospatial Services™.

3D REALITY CAPTURE

Reality capture of indoor and outdoor spaces encompasses high-fidelity digital scanning and 360-degree photography to create realistic models that are used in BIM and 3D software environments. The digital model can include underground utilities and assets above the ground but not clearly visible within a site. Stakeholders can use the geospatial data for design and construction considerations and then return the final designs back out into the real world for construction, fabrication, installation, and asset management for operational and maintenance functions.

There are many reasons why well-planned and well-organized geospatial data for assets are important. First and foremost, Managed Geospatial Services ™ helps drive business value. It provides the foundation for businesses to manage their assets and associated digital information as a trustworthy source that they can rely on for informed decisions. It helps ensure that internal or external data sources are of the highest quality and current. A holistic Managed Geospatial Service framework increases collaboration across an organization because everyone is working off the same version of the truth.
