Visitors at GEO Business to ‘walk through’ BIM with
augmented reality app
An augmented reality app which enables users to interact
with 3D models via their tablet device is set to be launched at this years’ GEO
Business industry event, which takes place in London from 28- 29 May.
Severn Partnership, together with its sister company
SEEABLE, will allow visitors at the GEO Business Show to witness and experience
first hand the latest developments in survey capabilities, BIM (Building
Information Modelling) and 3D Visualisation.
The augmented reality app will be showcased live throughout
the two day event and will allow visitor participation. Users will be able to
move through, and interrogate, hi resolution 3D images via their tablet
devices. Severn Partnership, specialist chartered surveyors, has invested
heavily to strengthen the quality of 3D data it produces, and in turn, the
quality of work it can provide to customers. Its unique augmented reality app
is the result of these efforts.
Severn’s augmented reality app is not the only product the
firm will be showcasing at GEO Business. Exhibition- goers will also be able to
view in depth, a digital showcase of the company’s pre-existing portfolio which
includes extended 3D and BIM work. Presenting images and videos, all in hi
resolution , Severn’s interactive portfolio effectively displays the quality of
work the company provides, as well as denoting the range of industries it
operates in, including laser scanning and aerial surveying.
Mark Combes Managing Director at Severn Partnership said: “GEO
Business is a fantastic opportunity for us to showcase our work and the
products we have been developing to our industry peers. The GEO Business event
will provide us with a brilliant platform to launch our new augmented reality
app, using 3D and virtual reality to incite valuable feedback from other
companies at the exhibition to enable us to improve the standard of service we
provide our customers”
A company that is constantly innovating, Severn
Partnership’s augmented reality app has been launched following the
introduction of its sister company, SEEABLE, to market last year. The
application allows customers to manoeuvre BIM 3D data via personal mobile
devices. SEEABLE is fully compatible with all of Severn’s pre-existing
surveying services, with particular focus on the rail and construction
industries.
GEO Business 2014 is an exhibition for workers across the
whole of the geospatial industry; the two day event also offers a variety of
key speakers covering a host of industry based topics. The event runs in
collaboration with the Chartered Institute of Civil Engineering (ICES), the
Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS), The Survey Association (TSA) and
the Association for Geographic Information (AGI) and takes place at the
Business Design Centre in London.
