Our TEch
We use the latest tech to provide ground-breaking ways of solving traditional problems much faster, and with significant cost reductions.
Cutting Edge Tech for Your Project
You’ll find the latest technology alongside other traditional surveying instruments in our toolkit, to improve the efficiency of dimensional surveying in the marine sector. Our equipment is fit for task, fully calibrated and professionally maintained so we can deliver a swift, accurate response.
We also use compact equipment that can be transported as our personal luggage when travelling by air, giving us global reach and short lead times.
3D Laser Scanning
The speed of data collection with 3D Laser Scanning, the amount of data and the accuracy of such cannot be compared to manual methods.
It is dependable, repeatable and highly accurate. View a live Point Cloud 3D data set and learn more about these instruments, their output and accuracy by clicking below.
Metrology grade hand scanning
Sub-millimetre accuracy for small objects and components. Ideal for reverse engineering applications. Objects can be shinny/reflective and can move during scanning.
Laser Tracking
Great for large object Surface inspections, Large volume measurements, Metrology-guided automated assembly, Critical Alignments
Total Station Theodolite
A TST often referred to as a Total Station can be used to measure a series of single point distances to greater accuracy and at longer ranges than a 3d laser scanner.
Combining both data sets allows us to increase the total accuracy of our final deliverables. This method is of particular use on larger objects or where overlap is not possible between laser scan positions.

Ultrasonic Thickness Measurement
Point thickness measurements using ultrasound.
- Monitoring critical structural areas prone to corrosion
- Identifying suspect areas with rapid wastage and substantial corrosion
- Complying with classification society requirements for thickness measurements
- Extending vessel lifespan and reducing maintenance costs through early detection of corrosion
ROV'S & ROBOTS
We are constantly reviewing the latest ROVs to hit the market.
Of particular interest are the compact units that are becoming available enabling us to deploy quickly anywhere in the world.
Software
We default to Leica Geosystems software because they are simply excellent and offer huge time savings when partnered with Leica survey hardware allowing us to deliver our clients fast results. We use Rhino CAD in-house but can deliver our clients CAD to suit whatever software they prefer.
Secure Data Archive
We securely store our client’s data following the National Cyber Security Centre’s – Cyber Essentials Plus code of practice. This allows our clients to recall it from us at any time in the future. Our approach when on site is always to survey as much as we can in the time available. This means we normally capture more than just the ‘mission critical’ scope. The extra data is ready to go should it be needed for future projects.
