Case Study
3D Digital Map of Electrical Substation
Client: MaRe Ingegneria
Project: Revamping of Electrical Substation (Perugia, Italy)
Scope of Work: 3D Mapping and Modelling for the extension plan of Electrical Substation
Introduction: MaRe Ingegneria, responsible of the extension plan of an Electrical Substation nearby the town of Perugia (Italy), appointed RIGOCAL to provide the 3D map of the area including all the assets.
Solution: To satisfy the client’s request of keeping timing and cost of the project within an assigned budget and simultaneously to deliver a high detailed and accurate 3D map and model in a safe way, RIGOCAL decided to utilise aerial (multirotor drone) laser scanning technology. Such solution allowed RIGOCAL to drastically reduce the on-field works and safety risks, without compromising the collection of very accurate and comprehensive 3D data. The field data were successively mapped and modelled in the office, resulting in production of the detailed digital map and objects’ 3D model, completely fulfilling the client’s demand.
