Digital have just returned from the Bladt Industries ship yard in Aalborg Denmark where we carried out an as built survey for two offshore wind farm decks. Using laser scanning we were able to capture exact 3d models of the decks. This data was used to carry out dimensions control checks ensuring that the decks would fit correctly onto corresponding towers which were being fabricated back in the UK. Laser scanning is becoming the preferred method for accurate dimensional control and as-built surveys as it captures all details down to the smallest nut and bolt. This provides a digital 3D record for QA and allows virtual inspection of the wind farm components back in the office.
