The advancement of technology has kept our industry moving forward into a more progressive future. At Powell CWM Inc., we seek out new trends, technology, and strategies to assess whether or not they can help us create better results and bring better options for our clients, and throughout our years, we have seen options that did the complete opposite, and options, such as 3D modeling, that have entirely changed the way we go about projects.
3D modeling has become an integral asset in our company. Here is how.
1. We Can Better Visualize Complex Designs
Automatically, 3D modeling is an improvement from 2D modeling. Our designers and engineers now have a more accurate depiction of the project they are working on. Not only that, but they have the ability to develop more complex designs with the various tools and strategies at their disposal. Ideas that were once challenging to represent on a flat piece of paper can now be created with ease in 3D modeling software, allowing them to visualize possible upgrades, pitfalls, or strategies better than ever before.
2. Clients Are Provided With a More In-Depth Strategy
Our relationship and communication with the client is our main priority when we take on a project. Whether we are helping with the design and creation of a new building or assisting our city with road repairs, we want everything we provide to them to be up to par with our high expectations. 3D modeling gives us the advantage of offering a more in-depth strategy to our clients so they can have a better understanding and view of what is to come. When we are in the planning phase, we can hand our client more than just an idea, but a complete visualization and promise.
3. The Safety of Land Surveyors Has Increased
Focusing on land surveying and its usage of 3D modeling, we have seen that it has helped increase our team members’ safety levels. In the beginning stages of a project, our surveyors must assess the property and land. This can lead to possible risks if the land is unsafe, such as a busy highway, mountainous land, or wet and muddy terrain. When we utilize 3D modeling through the use of aerial mapping and drones, our land surveyors do not need to put themselves in harm’s way to get a full picture of the property they will be working on. Additionally, 3D modeling software can provide a much deeper look into the land than our eyes could, giving surveyors a clearer map.
4. Control, Accuracy, and Speed Are Better Than Before
3D modeling software allows our team members to have better control and accuracy. When they utilize 3D rendering programs, our designers and engineers can work directly with the specific data taken from the 3D laser scanning technology used. They can create a proper model in an accurate space with control over every aspect of the project. Additionally, 3D modeling can be a faster resource for our team members to use, allowing them to produce end results quickly. When the design process is optimized and done with a lower rate of errors, the steps following that can be faster and finalized quicker than ever before.
3D modeling has pushed our land surveyors, architects, and civil engineers into an advanced future. If you have questions or wish to join a team dedicated to innovation, contact the team at Powell CWM Inc.
