On 10th October, the Duke of Edinburgh reviewed Terrain Surveys’ 3D laser scanner ( 3D point cloud ) at the Business and Technology Centre (btc) in Stevenage, during the official opening of the ‘My Incubator’ facility.
The Duke was interested to hear about how the scanner captures a 3D point cloud, with intricate detail of architectural features.
John Lane, Director of Terrain Surveys Ltd. commented, “We talked briefly about how our new equipment can save time and cost compared with traditional surveying techniques, particularly for historic buildings.”
Terrain Surveys have been working with the btc, which provides flexible facilities and business support to local companies, as a partnership between Wenta and Stevenage Borough Council.
Chris Pichon, Chief Executive of Wenta, said: “We were absolutely thrilled to be part of this historic visit and to show the Duke of Edinburgh some of the many innovative activities and new technologies from Stevenage businesses and organisations.”
The Duke was welcomed by a range of local business and community leaders, including John Wood, Chief Executive of Hertfordshire County Council; Cllr John Lloyd, Mayor of Stevenage; Cllr Sharon Taylor, Leader of Stevenage Borough Council and Chris Pichon, Chief Executive of Wenta.
