Zeb Revo productivity

Post by Archidata »

We got our Revo about 2 months ago and while I was initially skeptical, this thing has proven to be amazing. All our work is indoors, ranging from studio apartments to 400,000 sf parking garages. After comparing the point cloud to some overall disto shots, we're always within about an inch, even over a 400' feet. Sorry to sound like a promo piece, but it's been really working for us. I'd estimate a 10 to 20 times improvement in survey time over disto to tablet methods.

There are some issues, like drift when you can't close the loop, glass and shiny objects, and sometimes fuzzy data, but the biggest one is the lack of a camera. It hard to see detail, so we must use a gopro to figure out what's in the cloud. You can easily miss a flush door. We also have to "flag" about 20% of our scans for reprocessing by geoslam. They tweak it somehow and usually resolve any glitches overnight. They can't deliver the results in ReCap format, so you have to go through cloud compare - to .e57 - to recap.

Anyone else using this and have workflow suggestions? We're considering buying the desktop processing software to avoid buying more credits, as we're burning through about 5000/month.

It will be interesting to see how this compares to the real earth contour whenever that's ready for prime time.

We used this scanner and ran a comparison between it and our C10. The resulting data was very impressive and much better than I expected. It's noisy, but you can do an accurate floor plan with it.
If you don't see that there is nothing, then you are kidding yourself.

Hi All,

I've just sent Sam a link to the sample datasets, so hopefully he should be able to see the quality for himself :)
