iGUIDE for As Built?19492

davebny private msg quote post Address this user
Hi,

Has anyone used the iGuide Planix for as built scanning? How accurate would you say it was? For a 50,000 sqft warehouse, how far apart would you suggest each scan from one another? Any tips for elevation?

Thanks!

I haven't used it for as built... however I will say it only has horizontal lidar scanning, not vertical... i'm not an expert but I don't know if you can get a really accurate as built with one plane. does that make sense?

@davebny I have used iguide before, my concern would be if the space your preparing for has large open spaces? If the space is all office space I would definitely consider it. But if it’s mostly open space I would probably not use it because of all extra scans needed.

If it is all open space you might consider Matterport. If you send me a private message I can give you a 3rd option.

The MP Pro 3 if you don’t have one maybe consider renting one, several options on forum to rent one.

Hope that helps

Ron

@davebny Typical iGUIDE measurement uncertainty, in distance measurement on a floor plan, is 0.5% or better and the corresponding uncertainty in square footage is 1% or better. BOMA and Alberta RMS standards stipulate maximum square footage errors of 2% and iGUIDE easily meets these requirements.

Distance between scans will vary but 10-15 feet between scans is typical. Here's an example
