Scan Skunks Brings Precision to Nashville Landmark with LiDAR Scanning

Project Description

At Scan Skunks, we pride ourselves on delivering cutting-edge scanning solutions that help architects and builders tackle complex projects with confidence. Recently, we had the opportunity to provide our services for a historic project: the 27,000-square-foot United Record Pressing building. Known for its cultural significance in the Nashville TN area, this structure required detailed as-built data to support further feasibility studies. Our team utilized advanced LiDAR technology and Matterport virtual tour capabilities to complete the scan in just one day.

LiDAR Scanning for Accurate As-Built Data

The exterior of the United Record Pressing building, along with its expansive roof, was thoroughly scanned using our state-of-the-art LiDAR equipment. This process captured every detail, from architectural nuances to structural dimensions, ensuring a comprehensive dataset for a design phase.

• Exterior Scanning: The façade’s intricate features were meticulously documented, capturing the building’s historical essence while providing precise measurements.
• Roof Scanning: LiDAR technology mapped the roof's structure, including pitch, materials, and any existing imperfections, allowing architects to assess and plan renovations or updates.

The resulting model was a highly accurate digital representation of the building, reducing guesswork and streamlining the design process.

Enhancing the Experience with a Matterport Virtual Tour

In addition to LiDAR scanning, we created a Matterport virtual tour of the United Record Pressing building. This immersive tool gives architects, engineers, and stakeholders the ability to explore the site remotely, minimizing the need for on-site visits. The tour offers:

• 360-Degree Views: Navigate the building’s exterior and surrounding areas with ease.
• Key Measurements: Access embedded data points for dimensions and structural details.
• Collaborative Features: Share the virtual tour with team members, enabling seamless collaboration during the design phase.

This added layer of functionality has proven invaluable for projects like this, where every detail matters.

A One-Day Turnaround for Maximum Efficiency

Time is often a critical factor in architectural and construction projects. The entire scanning process for the United Record Pressing building, including LiDAR scanning and the Matterport virtual tour, was completed in just one day. This rapid turnaround allowed Drden Studios to move forward with their design phase without delay.
