From point cloud to plant model:

• Intuitive sequence of steps for modelling piping systems and steel constructions from 3D laser scans for further processing in planning software, for edge interference models and visualisation
• Extendable catalogues control pattern recognition
• Determine the tie in points on flanges for alterations and extensions
• Analysis of cylinders, elliptical truncated cones and planar surfaces for distortions
• Unrolling and volume calculations with deadwood subtraction
• All in the usual AutoCAD environment

Advantages:

• Intuitive steps for modeling or deriving connection points for piping systems and steel construction and linking to industry standard piping design software package.
• Catalog driven pattern recognition for industry standard components or user created fittings.
• No need for expensive, complex software outside of AutoCAD.
• Clash detection support between solids and cloud data.
• Support for insulated pipe runs.
