Ship Building Surveys

Whether your ship is at port or in drydock, the Trimble X9 efficiently creates  as-builts for new construction, renovation, and optimization. Also use it to:

  • Benefit from high sensitivity to capture dark and reflective surfaces.
  • Capture data of the hull, on deck or in holds with high resolution at sufficient range.
  • Quickly scan ballast tanks in preparation for water treatment systems for retrofit to comply with IMO mandates.
  • Obtain the level of detail needed by the naval architect before the ship leaves port.
