Trimble X9 3D laser scanner used for point cloud surveys and floor plans in Cornwall

3D Laser Scanning

Advanced Trimble X9 laser scanning technology captures millions of data points to create accurate 3D point clouds. Perfect for complex sites, BIM integration, and heritage documentation with millimetre-level accuracy.

Our point clouds and CAD outputs integrate seamlessly with AutoCAD, Revit and other BIM workflows using DWG, RCP, E57 and PDF formats.

Drone survey photogrammetry for aerial mapping and site surveys in Cornwall

Drone Surveys

Our drone photogrammetry surveys give you accurate, visual site data you can trust for design, planning and construction.

Dense point clouds, 3D surface models and high-resolution orthophotos let you measure distances, levels and areas directly, reducing repeated site visits and speeding up decision-making.

These deliverables integrate smoothly into CAD and GIS software, so your designers, engineers and project teams can overlay proposals, check clearances and monitor progress with clear, up-to-date site data.

Ideal for earthworks, site monitoring, cut-and-fill assessments and pre-planning feasibility studies.
