Inspection Services

DCM uses photogrammetric processes to provide 3D (and 2D) files of items, in multiple formats including, but not limited to CAD, Rhino and Solidworks.

Through pictures, DCM uses photogrammetry to process and digitize items of all shapes, sizes and complexity. Previous inspections projects have included everything from a controversial world record muskie caught in 1949 to underground tanks in Denmark.

DCM staff can attend sites for photo capture. Alternatively, DCM can work with clients to develop safe and proper procedures for ideal photo capture, uploading and processing by qualified DCM staff.

Photogrammetric processing provides reliable, scientific and cost savingmetrological services for all clients. Previous projects have included photo capture in hazardous areas, confined spaces, locations of difficult and/or dangerous entry. In these situations, pictures have been taken via DCM processes and provide accurate digitized files for the clients when alternative measurement services were not feasible.

In 2013, DCM was contracted to analyze the degradation of underground tanks that housed rainwater/sewer overflow in Denmark. Following a simple training session via email and telephone, the client successfully took the required number of pictures inside the empty tank and uploaded them to DCM from processing. This contract demonstrated the range and capabilities of DCM when measurements are required in difficult to access locations and confined spaces.
