Area

3 Million SF

Completion Date

2017

In 2016, ZS was contracted to perform exterior and interior laser scanning and as-built modeling of over 950,000 square feet of the University of Chicago’s Hyde Park Campus. The project involved developing a surveyed campus coordinate system to register (i.e. align) the point cloud data and generate a federated campus model for hosting 52 as-built building models. The project scope also included re-registering over 2 million square feet of laser scan data and re-alignment of existing building models so that all data would share a common coordinate system. The final models were to be incorporated in the University’s Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS).

The project involved:

  • 52 buildings and processing over 3 million square feet of interior point cloud data
  • Established campus survey control network and registered over 70 acres of exterior laser scan data
  • Over 35 acres of exterior scanning was completed in less than three (3) weeks
  • Over 950,000 square feet of interior laser scanning was completed during summer break
  • Continuous coordination with Facility Services to minimize inconvenience to building occupants
  • Final campus federated model to be migrated into virtual campus model for space and asset management
