Cultural & Heritage 3D Scanning
Preserve history in detail.
BTW’s 3D laser scanning captures complex or delicate cultural and natural heritage structures with precision, from facades to interiors, so you retain accurate records, support conservation, and inform restoration or adaptive reuse.
Why choose this service:
- Non-intrusive capture of delicate sites: our scanners record without physical contact, preserving fragile features
- Comprehensive detail and fidelity: every surface, texture and geometry is captured in high resolution
- Trusted outputs for conservation, heritage and council use: delivered in formats suited to researchers, architects, iwi, and regulatory bodies
Drawing from our capability to capture full point clouds rather than isolated points, BTW can record every visible detail along with 360° high-definition imagery. This allows measurement of features that might otherwise be inaccessible, and supports heritage specialists in conservation, refurbishment, or visualisation work. We produce deliverables to suit your needs (raw point cloud data, 2D layout plans or full 3D models), ensuring your project has the required data while safeguarding cultural and natural assets.
HOW WE HELP:
- Facade and building scans (heritage and natural structures)
- Conservation, preservation and archaeological documentation
- As-built model generation and detailed 2D/3D representations
