3D Laser Scanning New Caledonia | Hamilton By Design
Engineering projects in New Caledonia operate in a unique environment. Nickel processing plants, port facilities, power stations and infrastructure are often decades old, heavily modified and located far from design offices. Accurate site information is the difference between a smooth project and an expensive lesson.
3D laser scanning has become the most reliable way to capture existing conditions across Noumรฉa, Konรฉ and the remote mine sites of the Grande Terre. Instead of relying on tape measures and assumptions, LiDAR technology records millions of precise measurements to create a true digital twin of the asset.
The Challenge of Brownfields Projects in New Caledonia
Many facilities in New Caledonia share the same constraints:
Limited shutdown windows
Corrosive coastal environments
Historical modifications with poor drawings
Logistics that make repeat site visits costly
Multi-discipline coordination between local and overseas teams
Traditional survey methods struggle to capture congested pipe racks, structural steel distortions or equipment that has shifted over time. When drawings do not match reality, fabrication delays and site rework quickly follow.
The Scan Is the Backbone of the Project
The initial scan quality sets the tone for every task that follows. The point cloud becomes the backbone of the projectโdesign, detailing, fabrication and construction all rely on it.
If you start with a broken backbone, you will have problems everywhere else:
Simple tasks become difficult
Measurements are questioned
models need rework
fabricators lose confidence
schedules start to slip
A clean, well-registered scan makes coordination easy. A poor scan multiplies effort for every member of the team.
Protecting the Whole Project Team
3D laser scanning is not just about creating a modelโit is about protecting everyone involved:
Project managers who must control time and cost
Engineers responsible for safe and compliant designs
Designers and draftspersons who need reliable geometry
Fabricators who must build components that fit
Construction crews who install the work on short shutdowns
When the as-built data is right, the entire chain works with confidence. When it is wrong, every discipline inherits the problem.
How 3D Laser Scanning Changes the Outcome
A terrestrial laser scanner captures a complete point cloud of the site in hours rather than weeks. The data can then be used for:
Accurate as-built models for upgrades and expansions
Tie-in design for new conveyors, tanks and platforms
Structural verification of aging infrastructure
Clash detection before fabrication
Shutdown planning and risk reduction
Asset documentation for long-term maintenance
For New Caledonian projects, the biggest benefit is capture once, design anywhere. Local scanning crews can collect the data while engineering teams in Australia or New Zealand work from the same digital environment without further travel.
Typical Applications Across New Caledonia
Mining & Processing
Nickel plant upgrades
Conveyor replacements
Chute and transfer redesign
Tank and thickener modifications
Access platforms and walkways
Ports & Infrastructure
Wharf structural assessments
Ship loader interfaces
Pipe bridges and services
Electrical and control building upgrades
Energy & Utilities
Power station retrofits
Water treatment facilities
Fuel storage terminals
From Point Cloud to Deliverables
A professional workflow generally includes:
On-site LiDAR capture with survey control
Registration and quality assurance
Creation of usable formats for Revit, AutoCAD, SolidWorks or Navisworks
Extraction of models, drawings or clash reports
Ongoing support during fabrication and installation
The result is engineering data you can trustโwithout the need for multiple trips to site.
Ready to De-Risk Your Project?
Whether your project is in Noumรฉa, Konรฉ or a remote mine site, 3D laser scanning provides the foundation for safe, predictable and efficient engineering. Get the backbone right at the start and the rest of the project becomes easier.
The Blue Mountains presents some of the most demanding environments for measurement and design in NSW. Steep escarpments, ageing heritage buildings, bushfire-affected properties, and complex tourism infrastructure mean that traditional survey methods are often unsafe, incomplete, or inaccurate.
Hamilton By Design provides engineering-grade 3D laser scanning across the Blue Mountains โ delivering precise point clouds and high-resolution imagery that can be used directly for structural design, drafting, approvals, and construction.
Engineering Data You Can Design From
Our workflow is built around the FARO Focus LiDAR platform, capturing millions of points with millimetre accuracy. Unlike basic reality capture, our service is aimed specifically at engineering and fabrication outcomes:
Point clouds aligned to project coordinate systems
Accuracy suitable for structural steel interfaces
High-resolution HDR imagery from the scanner camera
Data prepared for SolidWorks, AutoCAD and BIM workflows
Outputs ready for drafting and clash detection
This is not marketing visualisation โ it is measurement data that engineers can rely on.
Why the Blue Mountains Demands Professional Scanning
Projects in Katoomba, Leura, Wentworth Falls and Springwood share common risks:
Original drawings rarely match existing conditions
Buildings sit on rock shelves and irregular terrain
Access is limited and weather changes quickly
Heritage fabric must not be touched
Bushfire rebuilds require objective records
In these environments, even small measurement errors lead to major problems during fabrication and installation. Engineering-grade scanning removes that uncertainty by capturing reality first.
What We Scan in the Blue Mountains
Structural & Industrial
Platforms and access structures
Steel upgrades and extensions
Mechanical plant rooms
Conveyor and process equipment
Bridges and rail infrastructure
Heritage & Tourism
Federation cottages and guesthouses
Scenic World structures
Lookouts and stone pathways
Churches and community buildings
Residential & Bushfire Rebuilds
Split-level homes on escarpments
Retaining walls and rock faces
Pre-loss insurance documentation
Extensions with no reliable drawings
Civil Assets
Footbridges and carparks
Stormwater channels
Council buildings
Schools and public facilities
More Than a Point Cloud โ High-Resolution Imagery
The FARO Focus scanner records full panoramic HDR photographs at every scan position. This provides:
Visual condition records alongside measurements
Colourised point clouds for easy interpretation
Virtual site walk-throughs for remote teams
Evidence for heritage and insurance reports
Designers can review stone texture, corrosion, timber condition and interfaces without returning to site โ a major advantage for Mountain projects where access is costly.
From Scan to Buildable Outcome
Hamilton By Design does not stop at capture. Our service connects directly to:
Structural drafting from point cloud
SolidWorks modelling of new steel in context
Clash detection with existing assets
Fabrication drawings and GA documentation
This integrated workflow ensures new work fits first time โ reducing:
fabrication rework
site modifications
programme delays
unnecessary return visits
Typical Deliverables
Depending on project needs we provide:

Terrestrial LiDAR Scanner Price โ Buy or Hire Options
When organisations first explore terrestrial LiDAR scanning, the biggest question is usually not technical โ itโs commercial: should we buy a scanner or hire one for the project?
Terrestrial LiDAR scanners such as FARO and Leica systems are powerful tools for capturing accurate point clouds of buildings, industrial facilities, infrastructure and construction sites. They support as-built documentation, clash detection, shutdown planning and digital twin workflows. However, the right decision between purchase and hire depends on how often the equipment will be used and the level of in-house expertise available.
Buying a LiDAR Scanner
Purchasing a scanner can make sense for businesses that:
undertake regular surveying or as-built capture
need immediate access on multiple sites
want to build internal reality-capture capability
plan to integrate point clouds into ongoing design workflows
Ownership provides flexibility and control, but also involves training, software, calibration and maintenance considerations.
Hiring a LiDAR Scanner
Hiring is often the smarter option when:
the requirement is project-specific
workloads are seasonal or occasional
specialist software and support are needed
you want to trial the technology before committing
Hire packages can include advice on setup, data management and export formats so the results integrate smoothly with CAD and BIM platforms.
We Support Both Options
Hamilton By Design offers terrestrial LiDAR scanners for both hire and sale, backed by engineering support to ensure the data delivers real value on your project. Whether you need equipment for a short shutdown, a construction survey, or you are considering building your own scanning capability, our team can guide you through the most practical pathway.
Rather than publishing generic prices, we prefer to understand:
the type of site you need to capture
required accuracy and deliverables
software and CAD integration
duration and level of support
This allows us to recommend the right scanner package and commercial model for your specific needs.
Please contact our team for a price and availability. Weโll help you decide whether buy or hire is the best approach for your project.
Refineries, Heritage Buildings & Industrial Retrofits Done Right
The Inner West of Sydney is home to some of the cityโs most complex refurbishment environments. From legacy refinery and industrial sites through to heritage-listed warehouses, factories, and commercial buildings, these assets were never designed with modern codes, loading requirements, or services in mind.
Yet today, theyโre being asked to support:
New plant and equipment
Adaptive re-use and change of occupancy
Heavier floor loads
Updated fire, seismic, and structural standards
Modern services routing in very old structures
This is where many refurbishment projects run into trouble โ not because the design is poor, but because the starting information is wrong or incomplete.
The Inner West Problem: Old Buildings, New Standards
Much of the Inner Westโs industrial and heritage building stock was constructed:
Under superseded Australian Standards
With unknown material properties
Using construction methods no longer permitted
With undocumented modifications over decades of use
What often looks acceptable visually may be:
Structurally marginal under modern load cases
Locally compromised due to corrosion, settlement, or fatigue
Modified in ways that no longer match original drawings
When these issues are discovered late in the design process, the outcome is almost always the same:
Redesign
Strengthening
Programme delays
Budget escalation
Why Waiting Until โDetailed Designโ Is Too Late
A common scenario we see in Inner West refurbishments:
Concept design proceeds based on legacy drawings or assumptions
Floor layouts, equipment, and architectural intent are developed
Engineering review begins
Structural checks identify:
Inadequate floor capacity
Unsupported penetrations
Changed load paths
Degraded or altered members
Design is forced to change โ often significantly
At this point, the engineer isnโt blocking creativity โ theyโre responding to reality.
The issue isnโt engineering input. The issue is when the true condition of the structure becomes visible.
Start With a Scan: Let Designers Create With Confidence
Engineering-grade 3D laser scanning at the very beginning of a refurbishment changes the entire dynamic of a project.
Instead of reacting to unknowns later, the project team starts with:
Verified geometry
True floor levels and deflection
Structural alignment and deformation
Accurate column, beam, and slab positions
Measured deviations from original drawings
This gives architects and designers something powerful:
Freedom to design within known constraints โ not guessed ones.
Heritage & Industrial Retrofits: Why Scanning Matters Even More
Heritage Buildings
Heritage structures often prohibit invasive investigation early on. 3D scanning allows:
Non-intrusive verification of geometry
Identification of movement or deformation
Assessment of tolerance drift over time
Planning of sympathetic strengthening solutions
Refineries & Legacy Industrial Sites
Inner West refinery and process facilities bring additional challenges:
Tight access
Live plant interfaces
Safety-critical environments
Brownfield congestion
Scanning provides:
Safe remote measurement
Clash-free retrofit design
Confidence before shutdowns
Reduced rework during construction
When Standards Change, Reality Matters
One of the most common late-stage surprises in refurbishments is floor capacity.
Buildings that performed adequately for decades may no longer comply with:
Current live load requirements
Change-of-use provisions
Equipment point loads
Modern safety factors
Without accurate structural geometry and context, engineers are forced to:
Assume worst-case scenarios
Over-design strengthening
Restrict layouts unnecessarily
Early scanning supports informed engineering judgement, often resulting in:
Targeted strengthening instead of blanket solutions
Retention of original fabric where possible
Reduced material and construction costs
From Point Cloud to Engineering Decisions
At Hamilton By Design, scanning is not a standalone service โ itโs an engineering tool.
Our process typically supports:
Structural verification of existing buildings
Floor flatness, level, and deflection assessment
Alignment checks of columns and frames
Scan-to-CAD models for design integration
Fit-for-purpose information for refurbishment decisions
This is especially critical in Inner West projects, where:
Every millimetre matters
Access is limited
Heritage considerations are real
Late changes are costly
Design With Knowledge, Not Surprises
Refurbishments donโt fail because buildings are old. They fail because assumptions survive too long.
By starting with an engineering-led scan:
Designers get space to create
Engineers get data they can trust
Asset owners avoid late-stage shocks
Projects move forward with confidence
If youโre planning a refinery upgrade, heritage refurbishment, or adaptive re-use project in Inner West Sydney, the smartest decision you can make is to scan first โ before concept becomes constraint.
Thinking about a refurbishment or retrofit in the Inner West?
Engineering-grade 3D scanning at the start gives your project clarity, confidence, and creative freedom โ not limitations.
AS 1100 & LiDAR Scanning: Compliant Engineering Drawings from Point Clouds
If youโve ever tried to update old plant drawings, verify a brownfield tie-in, or issue โas-builtโ documentation after a shutdown, youโll know the pain: the site never matches the drawings, access is limited, and the smallest dimensional miss can cascade into rework, clashes, and schedule blowouts.
Thatโs where engineering-grade LiDAR scanning and AS 1100 (the Australian Standard for technical drawing) make a powerful combination. LiDAR gives you truth data (reality capture), and AS 1100 gives you a shared language for turning that truth into clear, consistent, contract-ready documentation.
What AS 1100 actually โdoesโ in the real world
AS 1100 standardises the way we communicate engineering information through drawings: layout, line types, projection methods, dimensioning rules, tolerancing conventions, symbols, notes, and drawing presentation.
In practice, AS 1100 helps you answer questions like:
Which edges are visible vs hidden? (line conventions)
How are views arranged and interpreted? (projection and view layout)
How do we dimension so the fabricator canโt misread it? (dimensioning rules)
How do we document what matters vs whatโs โreference onlyโ? (notes and drawing hierarchy)
How do we keep drawing sets consistent across multiple contributors? (formatting + standards)
That consistency is exactly whatโs needed after a scanโbecause point clouds are rich, but theyโre not automatically โcommunicableโ in the way a compliant drawing set is.
What LiDAR scanning adds that drawings alone canโt
A LiDAR scanner captures millions (often billions) of spatial points that represent real surfacesโsteel, concrete, pipe, equipment, structureโcreating a point cloud that can be registered into a unified coordinate system.
In the engineering context, the big advantages are:
Speed: capture complex geometry quickly, often with minimal disruption
Coverage: see whatโs hard to measure with tape/total station (overhead services, congested pipe racks, odd geometry)
Context: capture โeverything,โ not just what someone remembered to measure
Traceability: you can always โgo backโ to the scan for verification and queries
Clash prevention: scan-to-CAD makes it far easier to design upgrades that actually fit
But hereโs the key: a point cloud isnโt a deliverable most trades can fabricate from directly. Thatโs why AS 1100 becomes the bridge between capture and construction.
The combined workflow: Point cloud โ model โ AS 1100 drawings
1) Capture the site as it really is
We scan the area of interest and register scans into a coordinated dataset. This becomes the base truth for everything that follows. If the project is shutdown-driven, we plan scanning around access windows and risk controls (often capturing adjacent tie-in zones too, because โnearbyโ services are where surprises live).
2) Establish intent: โWhat are we delivering?โ
Not every project needs the same output. Typical outcomes include:
As-built drawings for existing assets
As-found models to support new design work
Dimensional verification for fit-up and prefabrication
Digital QA against design intent (scan-vs-model comparison)
3) Convert scan data into engineering geometry (as much as needed)
Sometimes the best output is a controlled 3D model (plant layout, pipe spools, structural members). Other times the project is best served by 2D drawings extracted from a model.
Weโll typically create:
key datums and grids
primary steel / structure
equipment envelopes and critical interfaces
piping runs and connection points (where relevant)
floor levels, platforms, access constraints, clearance zones
4) Document to AS 1100 so the drawing set is unambiguous
This is where AS 1100 shines. We turn geometry into drawings that read cleanly and consistently across teams.
drawing borders, title blocks, revision control, and drawing register discipline
In short: LiDAR gives accuracy, AS 1100 gives clarity.
Where AS 1100 + LiDAR scanning delivers immediate value
Brownfield upgrades and tie-ins
Tie-ins fail when the โas-builtโ condition is wrong. A scan gives you real geometry; AS 1100 drawings package it so designers, fabricators, and installers share the same reference. This is especially useful when multiple contractors are interfacing.
Fabrication and spool accuracy
If youโre fabricating offsite (pipe spools, platform steel, handrail sections, ducting), you need dependable dimensions and an agreed drawing language. Scan-derived models support accuracy; AS 1100 drawings support fabrication interpretation and QA sign-off.
Shutdown planning and constructability
A point cloud is a brilliant planning toolโaccess routes, crane clearances, removal paths, temporary works, and โwhatโs in the way.โ But shutdown packages still need compliant drawings for permits, isolations, install workpacks, and handover packs. AS 1100 keeps those packages readable and defensible.
Verification and โwhat changed?โ
Sites evolve. A scan provides a timestamped snapshot. Drawings updated to AS 1100 become the controlled record: what was there, what was installed, and what the current state is. That matters for maintenance, safety, and future projects.
Practical example: Turning a congested pipe rack into a buildable upgrade
Imagine youโre adding a new line through an existing pipe rack:
Scan the rack to capture all existing services, supports, cable trays, and steel
Model critical geometry (existing plus proposed) to check routing and supports
Clash check before fabrication begins
Issue AS 1100 drawings for:
support details
spool isometrics (if applicable)
arrangement drawings showing tie-in locations
sections through congestion zones
installation notes and tolerances where appropriate
Verify post-install with a follow-up scan if required for QA/closeout
Thatโs the โwork togetherโ part: the scan stops guesswork, and AS 1100 stops misinterpretation.
Common mistakes when scanning isnโt tied back to AS 1100
Delivering point clouds without a drawing strategy (stakeholders canโt use them effectively)
Over-modelling everything (time is spent modelling non-critical items instead of delivering useful documentation)
Unclear dimensioning (scan accuracy is wasted if dimensions are presented ambiguously)
No controlled datums (people argue about โwhere zero isโ and models drift between disciplines)
Weak revision control (the drawing set becomes untrustworthy fast)
A standards-led drawing approach prevents most of these.
How we approach it at Hamilton By Design
Our angle is simple: engineering-led scanningโnot scanning for its own sake.
We capture reality with LiDAR.
We translate it into the level of model detail the project actually needs.
We document outputs with the discipline and consistency expected in Australian engineering environments.
Closing thought: accuracy is only valuable if itโs understandable
LiDAR scanning can deliver millimetre-grade spatial truth. But in real projects, truth still has to travel through peopleโengineers, drafters, fabricators, installers, supervisors, and asset owners.
AS 1100 makes that truth readable. LiDAR makes it reliable.
Together, they turn messy real-world geometry into clear, controlled documentation that supports safer installs, faster shutdowns, and fewer surprises.
Engineering-Led 3D Laser Scanning for Industrial Facilities in Sydney
In complex industrial environments, accurate site data is critical โ but point clouds alone do not solve engineering problems.
At Hamilton By Design, we provide engineering-led 3D laser scanning services across Sydneyโs industrial precincts, delivering not just accurate capture, but build-ready CAD models, verified layouts, and engineering support for plant upgrades, shutdown works, and fabrication projects.
From manufacturing facilities and bulk materials handling plants to port infrastructure and brownfield industrial sites, our scanning workflows are designed to reduce rework, improve constructability, and support safe, compliant engineering outcomes.
Why Engineering-Led Scanning Matters in Industrial Environments
Industrial facilities are rarely documented accurately. Over years of modifications, shutdown changes, and emergency repairs, original drawings quickly become unreliable.
Common issues we see on Sydney industrial sites include:
undocumented structural changes
misaligned conveyors and transfer points
access platforms not matching compliance drawings
equipment upgrades that donโt fit as expected
safety risks during shutdown installation
Traditional survey-only scanning provides geometry โ but without engineering interpretation, design risk remains high.
Hamilton By Design integrates engineering verification directly into the scanning and modelling workflow, ensuring captured data supports:
mechanical design
structural verification
fabrication detailing
construction planning
This approach is critical for brownfield upgrades and safety-critical installations.
From Point Cloud to Build-Ready CAD โ Not Just Visual Models
Our Sydney scanning projects are delivered as part of a complete scan-to-engineering workflow, including:
high-accuracy terrestrial LiDAR scanning
registered point cloud datasets
engineering-grade CAD and BIM modelling
