Airborne 3d scanning is a great tool for scanning structures from positions
previously unreachable by contemporary technology. Scanning piping and
metal structures from above either at onshore of even offshore locations
is now a possibility. Point cloud technology is definitely changing the landscape
in the Oil and Gas industry. Companies in the Oil and Gas sectors can create
an updated 3D data base that will serve them for future requirements
of reconstruction, maintenance and decommissioning.
