3D laser scanning in South End (Charlotte), NC

The core scan question here is adaptive reuse: heavy timber and masonry mill buildings along South Boulevard and Camden Road being converted into offices, food halls, and breweries, where real column grids and floor elevations rarely match old drawings. Brewery and food production spaces need as-built capture of tanks, process piping, and drains. Tight infill sites beside the light rail corridor mean short scan windows and careful coordination with active construction.

Deliverables get chosen against the decision rather than against a price list: the point cloud alone where a design team takes it from there, plans, sections, and elevations where the output has to be drawn, and an IFC or Revit model where several disciplines share the same congested space. Site and roof mapping is added when the outside of the building matters as much as the inside.

South End (Charlotte) sits inside our North Carolina service area, so mobilization is short and a return visit for a phase-two capture does not mean rebuilding the whole job. Most work here is scheduled within days rather than weeks, including nights and weekends for occupied buildings.
