Laser Scanning the Hold

In an effort to precisely document the measurements of the Charles W. Morgan, Feldman Land Surveyors from Boston, MA were brought in with their high-tech laser scanner to create a photo-realistic 3-D model of the ships hold.

Laser Scanning blends highly accurate measurements with three dimension expression of the space and the relationship among the various structural elements. It not only gives us a record of the vessel but has tremendous value as an educational tool describing the structure to those not familiar with traditional naval architectural drawings.

Wondering if Model Shipways watches these as they have the kit available. Or if any of this helps in detailing the vessel at all. Wishing I could be there.

Thank you very much for posting! Very interesting! When planning the completion of works? Will :Charles W. Morgan" still be exposed to dry?

All the best.
