Building Information Modelling

Multi-Dimensional Layout

Building Information Modelling (BIM) is changing how buildings, infrastructure and utilities are planned, designed, built and managed.

Creating the Infrastructure

Topcon’s BIM solutions help perform fast layout of design points and quick quality control documentation. A project’s success is based on productivity, accuracy and coordination. Contribute precise as-built data back to the model as your work is done.

High-Density Laser Scanning

Rapid and accurate site documentation

Capture complete 3D information to describe the existing site and conditions both visually and geometrically with Topcon GLS-2000 laser scanning series. Dispose of an unmatched combination of speed, accuracy, and detail. Meet the demands of modern BIM processes even in the most challenging job sites.

Benefit from a simple and effective technology. Intuitive touch screen operation, and precise Scan Technology II (High quality scan data).

Improve Field Efficiency

Collect the highest quality of data by virtue of the unique technological innovations from Topcon. Enable effective field workflows with selectable measurement modes. Three GLS-2000 models are available based on the range requirements of the target application. You can choose the optimal scanning speed / range based on site conditions on a scan-by-scan basis. Each measurement mode setting allows you to achieve specified accuracies on just a single pass, reducing overall time per station setup.

Increase Confidence in your Results

Capture the most accurate data possible under any conditions with the GLS-2000 innovative technology. Detect timing more accurately with the Precise Scan Technology II that incorporates waveform signal processing, enhancing the GLS-2000’s time-of-flight measurements. A multiple-lens array optimizes the collimation of the laser beam based on the test range measurement. Deliver better results with these industry-leading technologies.

Deliver More Complete Information

Ensures that no detail goes uncaptured with our customizable scan resolution defaults working in combination with dual 5mp digital cameras for collecting color imagery. Capture Reality, share, and access 3d data from field to office effortlessly. After processing in ScanMaster software, export your file in a broad selection of formats, including Topcon’s widely accepted cl3, which supports today’s most requested design, analysis, and modeling applications.

Building Facility Scanning

Preliminary inspection is an indispensable component of building renovation or relocation of factory equipment. The GLS-2000 series quickly measure and collect precise 3D point clouds without interrupting your ongoing operations. Utilize high-density 3D point clouds for generating as-built drawings and for simulation of piping or equipment installation. Safely operate the GLS-2000 series of scanners even in areas where laser emission power is restricted; simply by choosing the “Low Power” (Class 1M) measurement mode.

Rugged tablet field controller

Fast, simple, one-person operation

Simply take a prism and either our Android based Magnet Construct, Windows Based MAGNET Field Layout or Autodesk's BIM 360 Layout controller software anywhere within the Layout zone of your project and get precise horizontal dimensions and vertical elevations. The LN-100 can be mounted anywhere on site using a range of our additional accessories.

MAGNET Field Layout

MAGNET Field allows you to perform construction stakeout, land surveying, and road layout using total stations, layout tools, auto levels, and GPS receivers, while being connected to your secure MAGNET company account.

Access and share your data with your team and move from plan to building layout faster than ever.

Easy to Get Started

One button operation

The LN-100 automatically self-levels with the press of a button and you are ready to start.

Full remote control

Connect to the LN-100 through your wireless field controller and use your job point schedule or CAD drawing to select positions to layout, quickly and easily.

Auto-tracking

The LN-100 can either lock onto a prism and guide you to the next design points, or you can select to have the laser immediately point to the next exact location. One-person layout has never been easier.
