Echometrics and the Industry

3D Laser Scanning is becoming a new standard for many AEC (Architecture, Engineering and Construction) applications. Traditional AEC procedures rely on 2D drawings, details, and floor plans, which are often extracted from ideal BIM models. In respect to fabrication and installation on an existing part/site however, drawings are inaccurate and single point measurements are time-consuming and unreliable.

By utilizing 3D Laser Scanning and total stations, we capture a physical object’s exact shape, size, and location into the digital world as a 3-dimensional representation. From here, as-built CAD models of large areas can be extracted and various parts and components can be modeled in exact detail.

About Echometrics

Echometrics is a team of engineers, software developers, CAD specialists, and technicians specialized in precision 3D analysis and building façade design. Using advanced in-house software, we automate complex processes to analyze existing structures and generate highly accurate 2D panel profiles directly from 3D models. Our expertise in laser scanning and point cloud analysis enables us to handle projects of any complexity—delivering reliable, precise, and on-schedule results on every project.

We are experienced in a variety of applications and our products are unique to each customer. We use the latest high-accuracy LIDAR laser scanners and total stations for reliable measurements. Each 3D scan takes millions of measured points, which collectively create a 3D “point cloud”. Many point clouds are stitched together to generate precise digital representations of large and complex areas. These point clouds are used to develop as-built CAD models which are then utilized to accomplish complex tasks that are not otherwise achievable with traditional methods. The saying is, “measure twice—cut once” but with 3D laser scanning and analysis, only one measurement setup is required and millions of precise dimensions can be extracted.

Our goal as a company is to expand our customers current scope of practice while reducing project costs and lead times. We are committed to delivering highly accurate and precise products with reliability and confidence.
