Business Case: Design and Construction Planning for Industrial

Problem:

A Industrial tenant leased an empty warehouse for their operations and needed digital models developed quickly to support their design and construction plans.  They operate warehouses all over the world and were looking for a solution to produce standardized data anywhere in the world.   

Summary:

IndoorVu was able to rapidly collect data in the warehouse with their camera.  Collection is fast (done in a matter of hours) with very little impact to the site.  From the Intelligent Imagery, IndoorVu created accurate geo-referenced 3D models, with annotated key points of interest (e.g. bathrooms, MEP assets, etc.) and delivered 360 degree imagery of all the spaces.  The data was provided as a Revit model and a geodatabase inside of IndoorVu’s web Portal.

Result:

The building owner went from having little to no data about the building to having a full 3D model, visual 360 imagery and the ability to extract further detail throughout their design and construction process (column heights and tilt, concrete pad details, asset 3D locations, etc.). This allowed them to not only produce value for the design and construction teams, but also provided critical information to their Asset Management, Automation and Innovation teams without having to revisit the site. They also had confidence that the IndoorVu camera system could be quickly deployed anywhere in the world and capable of producing the standardized data for all their warehouse design/construction needs.  

Business Case: Advanced Building Documentation in Retail

Problem:

Large Retailer acquired 34 new brick and mortar locations.  The new locations were spread all across the east coast of the US and they had little to no documentation about the condition, layout, etc. of the buildings.  They needed to understand what they had bought, how to redesign the spaces and the level of effort that was going to be required to do so.   

Summary:

IndoorVu deployed to the sites of the newly acquired buildings and within 14 days had collected Intelligent Imagery for all the stores, in a total of over 2.4 million square feet across 5 different states.  Within 2 months from the data collection effort, IndoorVu created complete 3D models of all the buildings which included site plans, full ceiling plans, walk path details and 360-degree imagery of every space in every building.  The data was all organized by building, floor and room and delivered via IV Cloud and IV Portal.

IV Portal.  2D Floor Plan, Ceiling Plans, 360 Imagery

IV Portal. 2D Floor Plan, Ceiling Plans, 360 Imagery

Result:

The retailer was able to share this new building data with all stakeholders in their redesign and construction process via a simple web application.  Beyond just having floor and ceiling plans, the 360 Imagery enabled designers, store planners, and store managers to better understand and collaborate throughout the entire process of updating these newly acquired sites.  IndoorVu saved the retailer time, money and significant iterations on design and development.
