Coronavirus & Covid 19
The Covid 19 pandemic is set to have potentially devastating effect on the construction industry in the coming months. Here at Oakwood we are working hard to develop solutions to the problems that may be faced due to the cornavirus. We have isolated some issues that we can help to solve.
3D Laser Scanning
Surveying in a traditional sense involves at least 2 individuals working closely together. This could be a potential problem as the government guidelines for health and safety during the coronavirus crisis states not to work within 1m of a colleague. At Oakwood, we have been laser scanning for over 5 years. Laser scanning is an excellent way to survey existing buildings and topography. A laser scan will capture in great detail everything that is visible on site, which makes it a great tool for surveying and modelling and also an excellent way of recording and archiving existing conditions. The great thing about laser scanning is that it only takes one operative to complete a survey and in 1 day a single scanning operative can capture more data than a traditional survey could possibly capture in a week. All great news in the current climate!
