1519 provides 3D reality capture solutions and actionable data that empower you to reliably document, design and build. Using the latest 3D scanning equipment and software, our team of experts can collect precise data and create non-intrusive, detailed surveys of even the most hazardous surfaces and complex structures. From rail corridors and complex industrial sites to dams and power grids, we can deliver fully colored, 3D visualizations of the surveyed objects.
3D laser scanning can benefit a wide range of applications, which is why we’ve made it a priority to offer both traditional and aerial scanning. With our advanced technology and equipment, we can cover a lot of ground in a short time. Our experience in this area provides you with insight to determine which application is right for you.
When you need to scan large areas in a short amount of time, 3D Laser Scanning performed by 1519’s team of experts is your answer. We can do it all, so get in touch today so we can help you with your project.
Notable 3D Laser Scanning Projects
Allen and Dallas, TX
US 75 LiDAR Survey and SL-12
3D Laser Scanning Aerial Public Works Surveying
1519 Surveying, LLC (1519) completed two simultaneous projects under one work authorization for the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT): 1) The US 75 Project in Allen was completed for the purpose of a bridge replacement and proposed changes to the highway main lanes leading up to the bridge, and 2) The SL-12 Project in Dallas was completed for a proposed tunnel.
For the US 75 Project, aerial photogrammetry and LiDAR were collected within a 600-foot corridor along the main lanes (7,700 linear feet of roadway) and a 1,700-foot corridor at the bridge location. 1519 staff also completed a right-of-way verification map of the adjoining parcels along the project. Field crews set project control, performed on the ground surveying for above and below ground utilities, drainage structures, creeks, and obscured areas. 1519 also performed 3D terrestrial LiDAR scanning to collect bridge elements unable to be seen from the aerial survey.
For the SL-12 Project, aerial photogrammetry was collected within a 600-foot corridor along the main lanes and mobile LiDAR was collected within the existing right-of-way 11,000 linear feet of roadway. 1519 staff also completed a right-of-way verification map of the adjoining parcels along the project. Field crews set project control and performed on the ground surveying for above and below ground utilities, drainage structures, creeks, and obscured areas.
Deliverables included signed and sealed control sheets, tiled orthoimages, point cloud files, and Microstation files completed to TxDOT standards.

U.S. Silica Inventory Verification
3D Laser Scanning Aerial
1519 Surveying, LLC (1519) was hired by U.S. Silica, a nationwide sand and aggregate company, to conduct volume analysis on stockpiles as a third-party inventory verification. Depending on the type of aggregate, these materials are either stored in open areas or in large, fully enclosed warehouses. The stockpiles range in size from two truckloads to hundreds of truckloads. 1519 has performed volume analysis scans every quarter since 2014 in various states, including Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Pennsylvania, Ohio, West Virginia, Maryland, North Dakota, and Montana.
1519 uses different types of cutting-edge sensors to conduct volume analysis scans depending on certain factors like the type of material and how it is stored. Terrestrial LiDAR scanners are used to scan aggregates stored in warehouses and multiple scans are required in order to capture the entire surface without leaving any voids. For larger aggregate piles stored uncovered outside, 1519 utilizes high-tech unmanned aerial vehicles equipped with Lidar scanners and orthoimagery sensors to collect data efficiently and quickly. All scan data is uploaded to our server on the same day, where a 1519 technician will analyze the point cloud and imagery to create the surface of the material. A volume report for the aggregate(s) is then provided to the client within a 24-hour time frame.
