Precision
beyond the point.

We capture buildings, interiors and terrain with our own laser scanners — from the tripod and from the air. Processed in our own app Unary Capture, millions of points become a basis you can design and build on.

  • 2.2 mm 3D point accuracy at 20 m Trimble X12
  • 2,187,000 points per second Trimble X12
  • 3 cm vertical accuracy from 120 m altitude DJI Zenmuse L3
  • 16 returns per laser pulse, even below tree canopies DJI Zenmuse L3
Equipment

Four systems.
On the ground, indoors, in the air.

The right instrument for every task — and in the end every capture in one shared, registered dataset.

Unary Capture

A point is not yet a plan.
Processing makes it precise.

Every device delivers its own raw data. In Unary Capture, our own app from the Unary family, we merge every capture into one checked dataset — with proven accuracy instead of assumptions.

  1. 01

    Import

    Stations, flight strips and images from every device in one project.

  2. 02

    Registration

    All captures are aligned to each other and, on request, georeferenced in the Swiss LV95 / LN02 frames.

  3. 03

    Check

    Residual deviations per station and strip are made visible and logged — before anyone designs.

  4. 04

    Derive

    Cleaned, classified and colourised: the basis for plans, sections and models.
