Enhanced Visualization & Reality Capture from a Bird’s Eye View

New technologies for visualization and reality capture are expanding what the architecture, engineering, and construction industry can do when assessing a site, which is an arduous task that often doesn’t capture the big picture or the small details. Photos and drawings offer a small glimpse of an overall site, but it can be challenging to visualize and understand how elements relate to one another. This panel of experts will discuss strategies for maximizing drone capabilities and technologies to enhance architectural lighting and security design and to visually communicate between design teams and clients.

Learning Objectives

  1. Learn how drones can be used to gather data for visualization and reality capture quickly, safely, and cost effectively.
  2. Implement strategies for best collaboration between architects and security, lighting, land surveying, and civil designers to identify gaps.
  3. Leverage data provided by reality capture on a project to identify multiple solutions to potential challenges.
  4. Understand how drones and scanning technologies can provide operational safety and assist with cost estimating.
