SPAR 2005: Capturing and Documenting Existing-Conditions Data for Design, Construction, and Operations

May 23-24, Houston Omni Westside, Houston, Texas


The industry's only conference focused on the business and technology of advanced terrestrial 3D laser scanning


PROJECT-HARDENED WORK PROCESSES TO...

  • Limit construction growth, minimize rework, compress and manage schedule
  • Improve survey safety
  • Manage scope change
  • Deploy dimensional control for new construction and brownfield work
  • Produce engineering/survey-grade geomatics with multi-sensor integration
  • Improve job efficiency on routine survey work
  • Specify laser scanning projects and select service providers

WHO ATTENDS?

Project managers, engineering leads, construction managers, survey heads and asset managers from surveying, civil infrastructure, process manufacturing, fossil and nuclear power, transportation, offshore construction, automotive and other discrete manufacturing, mining and resource management, shipbuilding, defense and security organizations.


WHY ATTEND?

The aim of SPAR 2005 is threefold. First the conference will illuminate the business case for using 3D laser scanning and other dimensional control technologies to improve the efficiency and reduce the risk of capital project execution for process manufacturing, civil infrastructure, transportation, fossil and nuclear power generation, offshore construction and architectural projects through improved existing-conditions capture. Second, SPAR 2005 will help practitioners from survey firms, laser scanning service providers, engineering/construction firms as well as asset owners and operators discover and exchange information about best practices to deploy these technologies. Third, SPAR 2005 showcases the newest technology from the world’s leading suppliers of terrestrial laser scanning hardware, software and services.


Project managers, engineering leads, survey heads and construction managers who need to:

  • Drive rework costs and construction growth to below 1% from current 5% or greater levels on revamp and modification projects

  • Reduce project schedule and limit downside exposure to schedule change and scope creep

  • Improve dimensional control for new construction and revamp projects

  • Improve safety of survey operations by removing personnel from harm's way through remote data capture

  • Minimize facility outage and shutdown time with improved construction sequencing and planning

  • Get more value from previously purchased laser scanning hardware and software by refining survey, design, fabrication and construction work processes and improving post-processing efficiency

  • Improve the specification of deliverables and quality of these deliverables on upcoming laser scanning projects

  • Use advanced laser scanning techniques to reduce the cost of survey work currently executed with manual methods and older technology. Learn when to stay with traditional methods

  • Improve accountability of engineering, fabrication and construction

  • Minimize disruption and inconvenience to the public for road, bridge and tunnel projects

  • Understand and assess the capabilities of the world's leading suppliers of terrestrial laser scanning software and hardware

…will find the case studies and focused sessions on the SPAR 2005 agenda address these issues.

SPAR 2005 follows on the success of last year's event – the industry's first conference to focus on the business and technology of advanced 3D laser scanning.
