High-accuracy AR for Utilities and SUE

Display existing infrastructure and proposed SUE designs in high-accuracy AR to locate assets, detect problems, and improve collaboration.

DO MORE WITH YOUR DATA

vGIS AR transforms traditional BIM and CAD designs and GIS data into real-time augmented reality displays that are overlaid on your view of a physical job site with centimeter-level accuracy.

Use a device already in your pocket—like an Android phone, an iPhone, a tablet, or the Microsoft HoloLens—to observe utility infrastructure as a natural extension of the real world.

Save time and avoid costly mistakes and delays thanks to instant and comprehensive awareness of your surroundings and built-in productivity tools.

Industry Case Study

Why vGIS augmented reality?

vGIS integrates with Autodesk Build (BIM 360), Bentley iTwin, and Esri ArcGIS, and it accepts other BIM and GIS formats to create accurate augmented reality (AR) views of surrounding infrastructure.

vGIS aggregates and harmonizes geospatial data from available sources to reduce or eliminate the manual effort that would otherwise be required to prepare digital-twin data. vGIS does it for you automatically.

Displaying the current and proposed infrastructure as 3D objects in AR gives you a better understanding of your surroundings, increases productivity, reduces errors, and provides a safer work environment.

A few of many reasons to deploy vGIS

  • A user-friendly UI and an easy adoption process
  • Automated data conversion
  • Highly accurate visuals (accurate to within a centimeter)
  • Complete productivity workflows
  • Leading functionality depth
  • Collaboration and remote assistance tools

  • 10:1–15:1

    ROI for active users

  • 35–50%

    faster locates of 30 minutes or longer

  • 12–20 hours

    per month saves for active users

  • 30-50%

    less time required for clash reviews

vGIS Augmented Reality

3D Scans in Augmented Reality

A high-level overview of the vGIS system. vGIS is designed for AEC companies, public utilities, municipalities, and service providers to aggregate and seamlessly convert 2D GIS, 3D BIM and Reality Capture data from Autodesk BIM360, Bentley iTwin, Esri ArcGIS, and other formats into powerful, accurate, and stable 3D visuals.

Working with our industry partners, vGIS is bringing reality-mesh models into AR. Reality Capture is performed using the vGIS app or a variety of methods offered by vGIS’s partners, and it often requires nothing more than a camera phone to complete.

vGIS AR Users

Companies from many industries and the government—AEC, utilities, service providers, federal agencies—use vGIS to help their engineers, field supervisors, project managers, and field workers to gain clarity and direction in their work.

Organizations

use vGIS on job sites to detect design errors, avoid design clashes, and facilitate collaboration among project team members.

Contractors

use vGIS on job sites to detect design errors, avoid design clashes, and facilitate collaboration among project team members.

Municipalities and utility companies

use vGIS on job sites to detect design errors, avoid design clashes, and facilitate collaboration among project team members.

vGIS Use Cases
Our industry is evolving, and we are dedicated to staying at the forefront.  We must continue to equip our staff with tools, such as vGIS, that help our staff perform their work more accurately and efficiently.
