Asset Documentation Services
This service is often the starting point for plants that do not have an up-to-date and accurate 3D model of their assets. By itself, this service is invaluable as it creates a 3D model that accurately and precisely represents the plant’s "as-built" conditions. Since the 3D model is extremely precise and built to scale, it becomes the “official” as-built documentation that serves as a starting point for all revamp / retrofit projects. It also can be used for studies of mission-critical tasks. And when coupled with RealityLINx®, this becomes the starting point for game-changing applications.
INOVx views this service as comprising the following components:

"As-Built" Data Capture using 3D Laser Scanning
INOVx’s asset documentation field service is designed to survey and capture existing "as-built" conditions using advanced and extremely accurate 3D laser scanning technology. Accuracy is within 5 millimeters. INOVx has a proven track record and efficient work processes to capture asset "as-built" 3D data. With over 500 successfully completed projects in complex process plant environments, INOVx is a recognized leader in laser scanning methodologies needed for achieving engineering level precision. Scanning performed by INOVx or one of its certified service provider partners will take advantage of this proven methodology for realizing hi-fidelity models from laser scanning.

RealityLINx Model: Converting Laser Scans into 3D models
INOVx’s RealityLINx Mode software converts point cloud data from laser scans into 3D electronic models. This three-dimensional software is used by INOVx engineering services team or by other third party service providers to convert the captured 3D laser scans into accurate, to-scale 3D models representing existing plant conditions. The resulting 3-D model is an object-based model that directly reflects the characteristics of the underlying process elements it represents. Asset intelligence (i.e., based on P&ID data) can then be added to the 3D model, thus creating a more functional database. It also becomes the starting point for linking the 3D model with the various enterprise systems.

Intelligent 3D Models
The resultant virtual model and database represents the "as-built" plant. This model may also be exported to popular CAD systems as the basis for capital projects and ongoing engineering modifications. INOVx has developed unique and sophisticated software tools to keep the 3D models synchronized with the CAD systems in order to reflect plant modifications on a regular basis.
