3D scanning
With laser 3D scanning, surveying becomes faster, more accurate, and more useful for those who need to use it.
In hazardous conditions, it increases the safety of the surveyor.
Request a consultationDecreases risk – improves accuracy
Verkís offers three-dimensional laser scanning with the help of a laser scanner. With this new technology, the surveying of structures and/or the environment will be much faster and more accurate.
The use of laser scanners has increased significantly in the neighbouring countries, along with the use of models and BIM (Building Information Modeling) in design and construction.
A laser scanner can photograph the surfaces facing it. The environment is scanned from different angles to get a complete overview. Structures can be scanned both externally and internally and assembled into one whole. The result is a point cloud.
The point cloud forms a three-dimensional model of the structure. In many cases the point cloud is sufficient as a reference, but in some cases a model of the point cloud must be drawn.
A scanned image of a structure is used as a basis for design and analysis of various kinds. Scanning reduces risk and potential inconsistencies in maintenance, renovations, and extensions. During the construction period, scanning can be used for monitoring, for example, to test design models for the actual construction.
Verkís uses a Focusˢ 150 Laser scanner together with software from Faro. This is a device that can scan its surroundings with high accuracy in a short amount of time.
Faro Focusˢ 150, properties:
– Measures one million dots per second
– Has a 150 metre range
– Error margin ±1 millimetre

3D Our Scanning Across the Project Lifecycle
Verkís supports clients in creating accurate digital twins of buildings, infrastructure, and industrial assets through advanced 3D scanning and reality capture services. By providing precise as-built data, our specialists help improve project planning, design coordination, asset management, and decision-making, reducing risk and increasing efficiency across the entire project lifecycle.
Model of existing conditions for changes and renovations
We develop accurate models of existing conditions to support renovations, upgrades, and modifications. By capturing and documenting current assets, we help reduce uncertainty, improve coordination, and enable more efficient project planning and design.
Analysis of site conditions for new buildings
Verkís supports clients in analysing site conditions for new buildings through accurate data collection, surveying, and digital modelling. Our specialists provide the information needed to optimise design, reduce risk, and support efficient project delivery from concept to construction.
Comparison of construction methods with BIM models
We use BIM models to assess and compare construction approaches, helping clients optimise buildability, cost, scheduling, and project performance before construction begins.
Survey of current conditions for prefabricated building units
Verkís supports clients in surveying and documenting existing conditions for prefabricated building units. Our specialists provide precise measurements and digital models that improve design accuracy, manufacturing efficiency, and installation quality.
Regular quantification during earthworks
Verkís supports clients with regular quantification of earthworks using surveying and digital measurement technologies. Our specialists provide accurate volume calculations and progress assessments that improve planning, cost management, and project oversight.
Monitoring for accuracy requirements
Verkís supports clients with monitoring services that verify compliance with project accuracy requirements. Using advanced surveying and measurement technologies, our specialists provide reliable data to support quality control, risk reduction, and successful project delivery.
Shipping industry
We provide surveying, measurement, and digital modelling services that support the planning, operation, and maintenance of assets within the shipping industry.
Registration of archaeological relics
We provide accurate documentation and registration of archaeological relics, supporting heritage preservation, planning processes, and informed decision-making.
Quality control in production
We support quality control in production through accurate measurements, verification, and digital documentation, ensuring compliance with design specifications and quality requirements.
Field research
Verkís supports clients with field research services, including data collection, site investigations, and surveying. Our specialists provide accurate and dependable information that forms the foundation for effective planning, design, and project execution.
