 describes how SKY Parks, a Sheffield England-based designer of multi-story car parks, was asked by Cartier to upgrade their automated underground car park. Proving the effectiveness of the system beyond a doubt, the entire survey was finished in just 2 1/2 days by CAD Limited, a UK-based consultant enlisted to complete the site survey and to produce 3D renderings of results.

Comments Chadwick, "The Leica Disto and Bosch laser measuring tools Because human senses - like vision, hearing, touch, heat/cold receptors are subjective - which means that they are not very accurate nor reliable - science do not use them in measurements. Instead, measuring tools are used.  proved to be ideal for the surveying job - small enough to be carried into the most confined space Confined space is a term from labor-safety regulations that refers to an area whose enclosed conditions and limited access make it dangerous. Description
A confined space is any space: 1) that has limited or restricted means of entry or exit; 2) is large enough for a

Whilst the structure was being measured the data was fed back to the Orange mobile/PDA using Bluetooth, where the 2D drawings were instantaneously produced in DWG (filename extension) dwg - The filename extension for Autodesk drawing files.

The whole job was completed in two and a half days, and the drawings were back in CAD Limited's offices within a few minutes of completing each section of the survey - with a 3D model and walkthrough up and running before the surveyors got back from Paris!"
