In commissioning heritage records the balance between the selective and objective needs to be a careful choice of technique informed by an appropriate response to significance. Bill Blake Heritage Documentation, in partnership with Latimer CAD, SCCS and kubit gmbh supports, trains and demonstrates the key tools. With 30 years experience in the sector Bill Blake Heritage Documentation is able to offer advice and guidance on measurement techniques, data selection and presentation for heritage projects. SURVEY TOOLS TRAINING: Working with partners in survey BBHD offers bespoke practical 'hands on' skills transfer for: MEASURED SURVEY Direct to CAD Total station and Disto survey/Rectified photography/Laser scan to CAD processing. DOCUMENTATION THEORY TRAINING CIPA principles/ Condition recording techniques/Ante-disaster recording. APPLICATION OF METRIC TECHNIQUES Laser scanning/ Photogrammetry/Measured Drawing/Drawing standards/ Cartography for heritage surveys/Applied CAD THE TOOLS: TheoLt Developed in response to the need for a simple method of handling total station data in real-time TheoLt remains the finest tool for working with TST survey in CAD. The simple structure, rapid start up and robust performance all make TheoLt the optimum tool for real-time CAD survey. TheoLt includes fully featured building plan production tools and TheoOffice which makes processing survey control data easy including a GSI translator with full least squares adjustment. TheoContour A rapid, simple to use, low-cost method for generating auto-interpolated 3D contours as layer managed standard polylines. TheoContour provides a quick route to surfacing, analysing and displaying low density 3D point data in AutoCAD. TheoContour is unique in allowing a 'non standard' UCS to be used for contour generation making it extremely flexible. PhotoPlan Is the simplest method for integrating image data in to CAD survey. Capable of incorporating camera calibration and 3d control data PhotoPlan by kubit offers rapid routes to facade survey. In CAD montage production and 3D VRML model outputs are options possible in AutoCAD enabled by PhotoPlan. DistToPlan Getting building plans done in CAD using the Disto means working with measured drawing technique, DistToPlan gives the surveyor all the workflow options needed to get the best from the Disto. PointCloud Handling point clouds in AutoCAD as a drawing production method is far from simple and kubits point cloud is the best route to success. Endorsed as an OEM tool by Faro, PointCloud is fast becoming a recognised standard route from point to drawings. Drawing on the success of PhotoPlan kubit has included a unique image processing tool-set which levers the power of the image into the pointcloud space for 3D digitising.
