The role of surveyors in reality capture workflows
Surveyors are essential to reality capture workflows, ensuring digital models align with physical ground truth. While accessible geospatial tools allow non‑surveyors to capture data, professional surveyors provide the expertise needed for accuracy, compliance, and safety. Their role includes quality assurance, data validation, and adherence to industry standards such as RICS, TSA Client Guides, and Historic England specifications. By adopting innovations from Leica Geosystems—like advanced laser scanning and the AP20 AutoPole—surveyors deliver faster, safer, and more precise results across projects ranging from trade fit‑outs to heritage documentation. This case study highlights how surveyors bridge digital and physical worlds, prevent costly errors, and inspire confidence in geospatial decision‑making.
