Event Space LiDAR Scanning

Capture your event space in 3D to millimetre detail.

At Preevue, we are specialists in LiDAR laser scanning event spaces.

What is LiDAR Scanning?

LiDAR is a surveying technology that can use to scan spaces in 3D to millimetre detail in the fastest time possible.

The scanners we use at Preevue can take up to one million measurements per second, with the average event space requiring only a matter of hours to fully capture in 3D.

Our artists use the resulting data, a 3D point cloud, as a foundation for building a 3D Digital Twin of the space.

What is a Digital Twin?

A Digital Twin is a 3D virtual replica of your event space that can be used for a number of purposes.

  • It can be used to accurately plan and visualize events happening within your space, providing confidence to your team and client.

  • Through having a Digital Twin on-file, there are many opportunities available in xR, Virtual Reality, and Metaverse.

 FAQs

  • Typically not very long at all. An average ballroom takes around 1-2 hours to fully scan .

  • The immediate output from the scan is a point cloud of your space. This can be a useful file to have for any engineering or construction work that may occur in your space. We can also draw as-built 2D plans from this point cloud.

    The point cloud is the foundation for our 3D Digital Twin models, which can be used with Event Preevue, Event Preevue Plus, and a number of opportunities in xR, Virtual Reality, and the Metaverse.

  • No. We’re able to digitally remove erroneously captured objects from the scan. For the best results, it’s optimal to have the space as clear as possible but it certainly does not need to be completely clear.

  • Not at all. We frequently build Digital Twins of buildings that aren’t fully finished yet. Whether this involves a LiDAR scan of an under-construction site or working entirely off plan, we’re able to build a Digital Twin in advance of onsite completion.
