Digital Surveys providing LiDAR surveys and 3D Surveys UK

About us

Formed in 1988 Digital Surveys is a privately owned company offering a range of specialist survey, dimensional control and industrial measurement services. Over the years we have built a glowing reputation as an innovator in the survey sector.

Always at the forefront of measurement technology, Digital Surveys were early adopters of 3D laser scanning and LiDAR technologies, and have embraced the latest 3D data capture methods and techniques. Operating globally we provide large and small scale 3D survey solutions to owner operators, asset managers and engineers across the oil and gas, petrochemical, built environment and renewable sectors. So whatever your needs, you can rest assured, we have the team to deliver.

3D Laser Scanning

Digital Surveys provide a comprehensive data capture service using the latest 3D laser scanning and LiDAR technology. This allows us to virtually map everything from large scale city models to small industrial components.
We utilise a range of 3D laser scanners each with different capabilities, ranges, speed, durability and accuracies. So when an item or site is scanned, a millimetre accurate 3D data set known as a pointcloud is generated.
The pointcloud is made up of millions of points of data each with a 3D value in space (xyz), so you can expect an incredibly precise and realistic model in return.

Laser scanning is rapidly replacing traditional survey methods due to its fast data capture rates and superior accuracy.
We pride ourselves on being able to adapt to any logistical problem and work in many difficult and demanding conditions.
We are experts in the production of registered pointclouds and carry out projects in Industrial, Architectural, Offshore and Heritage sectors.

3D Modelling

Our process of turning a 3D laser scan into a 3D model begins with registering and processing the point cloud data, generating a mesh representation, refining the mesh, mapping textures onto the model, creating a digital 3D model, optimising it, and exporting it for various applications. Our skilled professionals collaborate to ensure accuracy and quality throughout the process.

3D Inspection

Digital Surveys also provide a 3D inspection service for a wide range of applications requiring high accuracy industrial measurement.

By using 3D laser scanning an exact as built condition of an asset can be captured, probed and tested virtually, so you can discover errors earlier and adjust for them.
