Piazza Scans Near Z+F USA's Headquarters

Just outside Pittsburgh, PA, Z+F USA team took the opportunity to scan the Piazza, a local outside mall and gathering spot, to put two scanning technologies to work on one real-world site. Using the Z+F FlexScan 22® mobile SLAM system and Z+F IMAGER®, the team captured the site in under an hour, excluding equipment setup.

The result is a detailed dataset that demonstrates more than scanning speed. It shows how mobile and static scanning data can work together to capture a site with the detail, coverage, and flexibility the project demands.

39 Minutes in the Field

Capturing detailed reality data does not have to mean spending hours on site. The Piazza dataset was collected in just 39 minutes of scan time, not including setup, using a combination of mobile and static scanning.

That efficiency can make a meaningful difference on active sites where access windows are limited and field time needs to be kept to a minimum.

One Platform for High-Quality Data

Collecting the data is only part of the workflow. Our Piazza scan dataset demonstrates how data captured with the FlexScan 22® mobile SLAM system and Z+F IMAGER® can be brought together within one platform, creating a unified dataset without requiring teams to move between multiple software environments.

Mobile and static scanning can each be used where they make the most sense, while the resulting data comes together as part of one streamlined workflow.

Detail Where It Matters

From the overall geometry of the site to smaller architectural and structural details, the combined dataset provides a clear representation of the existing environment.

Users can move through the point cloud, examine individual areas, take measurements, and work with detailed spatial information captured directly from the real-world site.

These scans provide a practical example of what is possible when speed, mobility, and high-resolution scanning work together.
