Smart Image Survey
Offset Services Ltd offer a complete turnkey as built capture solution. Existing conditions are surveyed and photographed using photogrammetric techniques. Delivery of the results can be via several methods depending upon project requirements. From highly intuitive Smart Image Databases, linked to multiple other asset data sources, accessible via web portal technology or standalone intranet solutions using MaganJr, to complete intelligent 3D models suitable for a variety of engineering purposes.
Available Smart Image Database Items

SMART Images are location and asset aware photographs that provide an undisputable photographic archive of the existing plant. Plant assets become highlighted on mouse movements. Using unique plant tag numbers, integration with the Data Management Portal enables complete documentation retrieval for the selected asset.
SMART Measure Module uses discrete pairs of photographs, from which accurate measurements can be extracted directly from the smart image. These measurements can then be used to check and mark up existing drawings using the portal. An online demo version of the measure module can be found here (Internet Explorer Only).
SMART Images Index provides a list of photographs containing a particular asset, from many differing viewpoints. Smart Images are listed in order of asset coverage on that particular image. Clicking on any image opens the relevant full size Smart Image or the Measure Module facility with that image.
3D Smart Image Navigation Models provide an intuitive method of accessing photographic documentation. Camera icons within the 3D model indicate the position and orientation of available photographs relative to plant items. Clicking on any camera icon will prompt VNET to display the relevant Smart Image.
3D Model can be built using the Smart Image database. See As Built CAD Services. Streaming technology enables very complex and large 3D models to be viewed rapidly on your desktop browser; a true digital replication of the plant that can be explored by virtually "flying or walking". Objects within the model are tagged and are thus related to other documents accessible via the portal.
