BIM is a process, which covers the whole lifecycle of a construction project.  As a hardware and software manufacturer, Topcon focus on providing 3D data to add geospatial value to the project.  One such 3D measurement process is “scan-to-BIM” and with our high quality software solution we like to go one step further and provide the “Scan-to-BIM-to-field” process to allow a continuous 3D measurement based feedback loop. 

Topcon’s BIM solutions help perform fast layout of design points and quick quality control documentation.  A project’s success is based on productivity, accuracy and co-ordination. Contribute precise as-built data back to the BIM model as your work is done.

Survey and mapping solutions allow for the rapid collection of high density point cloud data with colourful image overlay for the ultimate in feature recognition and mapping detail.  Visualisation of three-dimensional data covering projects from residential boundaries through to full city models.

Construction co-ordination is essential for any building project.  Knowing what was done before and working from the same design plan is critical to maintain schedule and avoid costly collisions. With Topcon’s BIM solutions you stay connected to the same design.

GLS-2000 Laser Scanner: Compact High-speed and lightweight Laser Scanner

Key Features 

•Highest Accuracy with Precise Scan Technology

•High Speed 360º Dome Scanning

•Long Range

•Dual Camera

•Eye Safe – Selectable Laser Technology

•Compact, Lightweight Rugged Design

Topcon’s GLS-2000 laser scanner allows you to quickly and accurately capture 3D data at any project site. The compact, lightweight scanner accurately captures your site in less than 3 minutes with a 360º scan including images.

With a scan range of over 350 metres the GLS-2000 is a versatile tool that lets you get laser scanning in many different work environments. The stand-alone capability of the scanner combined with its rugged design provides technology that will stand up to the most extreme outdoor work sites. The scanner is equally at home on indoor projects with its user selectable lasers and dual cameras.

The GLS-2000 scans at an unprecedented speed. With one-touch scanning the GLS-2000 can be put to work quickly and easily without compromising accuracy making it an ideal tool across multiple applications. In particular, “Scan-to-BIM” and “As-Built” projects will benefit significantly from the precision and productivity provided by the GLS-2000.

One additional feature that contributes to its versatility is 360° full-dome scanning capability. Even difficult to measure subjects such as building interiors, towers, and bridge spans are recorded at the press of a button. Using pre-set scanning parameters, easily collect a full-dome 360° scan of your work site in under 3 minutes… including images!
