Trimble SiteVision Augmented Reality
Bring spatial data into real-world environments with SiteVision, Trimble’s augmented reality system for on-site construction guidance. This technology allows contractors and surveyors to visualize, explore and understand complex designs. Plan the project, check progress during construction and identify issues early so you can better manage costs and complete projects on time.
Features of Augmented Reality Construction Software
SiteVision is a user-friendly system that allows you to calculate quick measurements, determine productivity, complete inspections, communicate changes to field crews and more. Use this software throughout all stages of the construction life cycle to visualize designs.
Key features of SiteVision include:
- Context of the site: The augmented reality technology provides accurate overlays in the real environment down to the centimeter. By visualizing the design in the field, you can understand how your building plans will impact the surrounding environment and assess the progress of your project.
- Simple scanning: With certain LiDAR-equipped devices, you can get quick and cost-effective mobile scanning. Scan as you go to obtain accurately georeferenced points and export them to Trimble Connect.
- Collaborative communication: Share visualizations with your team in real time from the field for fast communication.
- Real-time data capture: Take notes, measurements and photos in the field to get accurate reports, create tasks and assign them to the team. Make complex data easy to understand and actionable.
- Integration with existing equipment: With the Trimble DA2 global navigation satellite system (GNSS) smart antenna, mobile phones become a multipurpose tool for construction site guidance in the field.
How Augmented Reality Provides On-Site Construction Guidance
With augmented reality, your team can:
- Capture reality: Use SiteVision to capture georeferenced points quickly with supported LiDAR-equipped devices.
- Get real-world visualizations: Trimble SiteVision gives clear 3D visualizations in the real world, helping your team to improve their workflow while reducing mistakes.
- Catch discrepancies: Compare your updated designs with real-world conditions to identify and correct mistakes and stay on schedule.
- Track progress: 2D and 3D visualizations are accurate within centimeters, empowering you to measure and make calculations with confidence and make informed decisions. Use Trimble Connect to share field data with your team and resolve issues right away.
Use With Trimble HPS2 for Construction Site Design
Trimble SiteVision can be used with Trimble HPS2, a handle that combines a GNSS receiver and electronic distance measurement (EDM). This combination brings augmented reality information to the field and handles data collection for real-time project analysis. The automatic EDM calibration process instantly calculates camera offsets for accurate readings. The in-field visualizations enhance reality, which is beneficial for project phases from inspection to maintenance.
Features of Trimble HPS2 with SiteVision include:
- Lightweight DA2 GNSS receiver for powerful processing
- Integrated EDM for accurate measurements on demand
- Portable handheld unit
- Magnetic mount for mobile phone attachment
