The utilisation of 3D scanning technologies in surveying provides high-resolution, millimetre-level accuracy, while reducing errors that may occur with manual measurements. The lasers can also capture hard-to-reach areas of a site, thereby eliminating the risk of missing data.
The technology’s incredible capacity for accuracy can also be implemented to detect deviations from plans early in the development process and reduce costly and time-consuming rework or amendments.
2: Improved Collaboration and Communication
When integrated with Building Information Modelling (BIM), 3D scanned surveys provide data that can be easily accessed by stakeholders, vastly improving the coordination of a project and minimising the risk of conflicting information.
The accessibility of the data collected also allows for all parties working on a development to monitor its progress and accuracy to plans. In making the development process more collaborative, 3D Scanning Surveying encourages more informed decision-making, leading to better outcomes for the client and community.
3D scanned sites can be produced as “digital twins”, allowing for deeper analysis of site conditions, more strategic planning and future provide reference for a proposed development.
3: Saving Time and Money
3D Scanning Surveying reduces the time taken to undergo traditional surveying methods to mere minutes, reducing field time and project timelines. Where a larger site may require weeks of surveying labour, 3D Scanning Surveying minimises this timeframe, lowering the cost of labour and travel manual surveying carries. .
How does BRS use 3D Scanning Surveying, and how can this benefit my project?
At BRS, we utilise GeoSLAM’s Horizon to provide our clients with exceptional 3D scanning surveys. This outstanding tool enables us to survey larger areas more efficiently – significantly reducing time, field costs, and travel costs.
GeoSLAM Horizon captures over 300,000 scanner points persecond, ideal for surveying areas with difficult or complex spaces such as building interiors or façades. GeoSLAM Horizon can reach areas other scanners cannot Рsuch as inside roof cavities and combined spaces from 100 metres away.
GeoSLAM technologies are used at BRS for a wide range of projects, including:
- Digital building information modelling (BIM)
- Infrastructure and asset management
- Volumetric surveys
- Emergency response
- Forestry surveys
Our clients can expect faster data capture and enhanced data visualisation.

Our survey team has extensive experience providing spatial solutions and with our latest addition of GeoSLAM, we can provide service with reliable accuracy, precision, and immediacy.
Whether you require design, construction services, or operating and maintaining an asset, our survey team is well-resourced and positioned to assist.
For any assistance with surveying projects, please contact your local BRS office or email mail@brs.com.au.
What is 3D Scanning Surveying?
3D laser scanning utilises millions of measurement points and 3D images to render detailed and accurate digital survey models of buildings, roads, structures and sites. This technology is cutting-edge and boasts the ability to collect incredibly precise geospatial data, allowing users to survey larger areas faster and more efficiently.
What are the primary efficiencies of 3D Scanning Surveying?
This revolutionary technology provides numerous benefits to the surveying, planning, design and construction stages of a project, including:
