OmniSurveyor3D

OmniSurveyor3D® has been developed over the last 10 years using state of the art technology to produce an award-winning asset management and virtual surveying system.

The system utilises digital video imagery, captured from our specialised survey vehicles, to provide users with an accurate, auditable, real world representation of any transportation network.

 

Due to the visual nature of the data, users of the system can visit any part of their network from the desktop, which means they are no-longer reliant on having to undertake time consuming, costly and potentially hazardous site visits.

Navigation through the video is extremely simple with users having the ability to virtually drive through or jump to specific points of interest.

 

So What Can I Do With It?

OmniSurveyor3D® is not simply a video player; additional in-built functionality has been developed in conjunction with our clients, to help the full potential of the survey data to be realised.

Without leaving the office, from the video within the system, users have the ability to:

  • View the video survey of their transport network;
  • Create, update and maintain a complete register of their assets and infrastructure;
  • Undertake real-world measurements between any two points in the video, safely and accurately;
  • Remotely assess the condition of infrastructure through the ability to over-lay third party data (i.e condition surveys or track geometry);
  • Undertake visual planning of traffic management (Chapter 8 Calming Schemes);
  • View the road scene of the surveyed urban and rural areas;
  • Generate virtual design of "yet to be built" infrastructure through integration of virtual assets or infrastructure models;
  • Use the actual visualisation of the current network for future planning and development activities;
  • Safely locate potential sites to position new line-of-sight assets such as signals/traffic lights/speed cameras/road signs etc;
  • Provide a point of reference for transportation specialists, utility companies and maintenance contractors to name but a few;
  • Plan for public safety/crowd control/security purposes;
  • Undertake route learning;
  • View and assess accident/incident black spots;
  • Link to your existing systems, where compatible.

This is a just a small sample of its potential applications as OmniSurveyor3D® can also interface to your existing systems, such as modelling and simulation tools, to offer you second to none functionality and therefore offer you significant benefits over alternative technologies.

How It Works

We survey your network using high resolution digital video cameras, differential GPS and an Inertial Measurement Unit which can be fitted to our purpose built vehicles or they can be installed on your own vehicle of choice.

The survey information is then captured, processed and the OmniSurveyor3D® software can then be used to:

  • identify assets
  • locate assets
  • record the true geographic layout of your network
  • validate new design layouts
  • size and position assets
  • measure the distances with a 3D ruler
  • place virtual objects
  • view physical condition

Omnicom Engineering Limited are always happy to discuss the application of OmniSurveyor3D® in your environment and work with you to ensure it meets your specific requirements.

OmniSurveyor3D - The Server Solution

Omnicom Engineering Limited's award winning software, Omnisurveyor3D® is available for use on your desktop PC or laptop. However, it may be more relevant for you to host the solution on a video image server, enabling hundreds of your users to simultaneously access the high quality information using your corporate intranet.

The benefits of hosting OmniSurveyor3D® on a video server include:

It is cost effective

One data set is available at all times for multiple users, negating the need to purchase additional data sets.

Accuracy and Realism

Multiple, virtual, three-dimensional objects can be placed on the screen enabling users to plan and model new infrastructure designs with the highest possible accuracy.

User-friendly

Specific areas of infrastructure can be selected, delivering a powerful, user-friendly, search capability.

Planning

The comprehensive data can be shared with a number of users to enable timely and cost effective possession scenario planning.

Quick

Accurate, digital images and position data are readily available at the touch of a button. Image preview enables the user to quickly review the selections before downloading them to a local cache, saving valuable time.
