Areoscan is a web-based service that enables the user to create a 3D model of any area or object using digital photography. In industries such as surveying, architecture and design, Areoscan is proving to be a cost effective, flexible and time efficient solution for all sorts of jobs, ranging from complex land surveys through to creative art projects. Whatever the need, Areoscan takes a real-life subject and automatically generates a 3D model in the same way a 3D laser scanner does, without specialized equipment. The 3D models can be downloaded in several formats for manipulation by a range of computer-aided design (CAD) programmes. There are a number of guides available online to assist the user in maximising their experience and getting great results. This project cements New Zealand’s reputation as an innovative global developer.
Jury Evaluation:
Aeroscan is an innovative e-Business website that enables everyone to create a 3D model of any area or object using a number of digital photographs taken by ordinary digital cameras.
Areoscan uses pictures taken from a real-life subject and automatically generates a 3D model in the same way as a 3D laser scanner does, but without the need for specialized equipment. The 3D models can be downloaded and seen in the free player before payment and then can easily be downloaded in a variety of formats for use and manipulation in a range of computer aided design (CAD) software programs.
