As part of one order, an attempt was made to scan 60 vessels belonging to the same owner. A 3D scan of the power plant was performed on board the ships in order to perform a collision-free design of the ballast water treatment system (BWTS). In a short time, during unloading in port, 3D scanning of the entire installation was performed. As a result of 3D scanning a detailed point cloud was created. Thanks to these data, existing devices, constructions and installations that were in the scope of measurement were reflected. Also hard to reach places were scanned, which are impossible or very difficult to measure by classical methods. Depending on the size of the ships and existing equipment, 40 to 70 scans were made.
Characteristic data of selected ships:
- MANDRAGA

3D scanning time: 7h
Number of positions: 69
- PINNAU
Length / width: 88.0 m / 12.8 m
3D scanning time: 7h
Number of positions: 56
- NARWA
Length / width: 114.4 m / 14.4 m
3D scanning time: 8h
Number of positions: 70
- End-product: Colorful point cloud, Recap RealView, scene2go
