REALITY CAPTURE CASE STUDIES

Education Portfolio

Campus buildings documented for renovation.

Kresge College

Planning Around Topography, Trees, and Existing Conditions

Siteline documented the existing conditions of the UC Santa Cruz Kresge College redevelopment to support planning and coordination across a challenging hillside campus. Laser scanning captured the existing buildings, utilities, site features, and surrounding terrain, providing the design team with a comprehensive understanding of existing conditions while minimizing impacts to mature trees and the natural landscape.

  • Provided accurate existing conditions for architectural and site design.

  • Improved coordination around existing utilities, trees, and campus infrastructure.

  • Supported planning within a complex hillside environment.

Campus Existing Conditions - Comprehensive documentation of the existing campus environment.
Utility and Structure Documentation - Existing utilities and structure documented for project planning and coordination
Topographic Model - Existing terrain captured to support site planning and grading.
Existing Conditions Revit Model - Architectural and site model developed from laser scan data

University High School

One Existing Conditions Model Supporting Years of Campus Improvements

Siteline developed a comprehensive existing conditions model of the campus to support multiple renovation and improvement projects over several years. Rather than documenting individual buildings as projects arose, the model became a long-term planning resource that allowed architects and the owner to efficiently design future improvements using a consistent, verified representation of the campus.

  • Supported multiple renovation projects using a single existing conditions model.

  • Reduced the need for repeated field documentation.

  • Established a reliable foundation for ongoing campus improvements.

Building Documentation - Existing architectural conditions captured for renovation planning

Precision Scan to BIM – Laser scan data enabled accurate modeling of existing conditions despite limited as-built information
Campus Overview - Eight levels across three campus buildings captured to support the campus master planning effort

Campus Existing Conditions Model - Comprehensive documentation supporting future campus projects

Lucas Center MRI

Planning the Removal of an MRI from a Below-Grade Vault

Siteline documented the existing conditions surrounding an MRI suite located below grade to support replacement planning within an active medical facility. Existing structural elements, access routes, and surrounding building conditions were captured to help the project team evaluate removal logistics and coordinate the installation of replacement equipment.

  • Supported planning for removal of existing MRI equipment.

  • Documented existing structural constraints and access routes.

  • Reduced uncertainty during equipment replacement planning.

Existing Conditions Model - Existing facility modeled to support  design and coordination.
MRI Equipment Documentation – Highly detailed scan data utilized to accurately dimension MRI equipment for planning and coordination.
Equipment Access Route - Existing pathways documented to evaluate MRI removal logistics.

Hoover Plaza

Capturing Historic Masonry for Accurate Restoration

Siteline documented the historic exterior masonry and architectural features of Hoover Plaza to support restoration planning. High-resolution laser scanning captured the geometry and condition of the building facade, allowing the design team to accurately model existing conditions and coordinate preservation efforts while minimizing field verification.

  • Delivered accurate documentation of historic architectural features.

  • Supported restoration planning using verified existing conditions.

  • Reduced field verification through comprehensive digital documentation.

Restoration Coordination - Existing conditions used to support preservation and design planning.
Historic Masonry Documentation - Existing masonry and architectural features captured with laser scanning.
Architectural Detail Capture - High-resolution documentation of ornamental brickwork pattern.
