Combined high-density survey sensors acquisition (Sonar & LiDAR)
LYUMARINE implements a combined simultaneous high-specification survey sensors acquisition to obtain a high density seamless coverage dataset for the structural integrity monitoring. We merge marine and terrestrial survey techniques – multibeam echosounder and 3D scanning LiDAR deployed on a sea surface platform complemented with the airborne high-resolution stereophotogrammetric and LiDAR inspection.
The goal of the combined sensors acquisition implementation is to provide a 3D perspective of coastal assets, a so called “digital twin” offering a cost-effective substitute for traditional methods of inspection and monitoring.
The point cloud based 3D technologies open up great opportunities for the asset owners:
- Timely and cost-effective monitoring of the actual condition of structures (both above-water and subsea parts), including the control of the foundation scouring – the most common cause of the nearshore infrastructure damage and shutdowns
- Significant reduction or even complete elimination of the need for diving operations
- Accurate 3D measurements based assessment of the required repair material and the maintenance efforts
- Simplified interaction of all stake holder enabled by the use of cloud services and an intuitive interface allowing to take the best out of the 3D representation of the assets
