AVEVA unveils new product at SPAR Europe 2010
AVEVA announced the launch of AVEVA IntelliLaser at SPAR Europe 2010 in Amsterdam. As an extension to the AVEVA NET information management solution, the new IntelliLaser product enables owner operators of industrial process plants to cost-effectively add intelligence to otherwise unintelligent laser-scan data. Unlike many applications that require time-consuming manual processes to embed object intelligence to laser scans, IntelliLaser automatically creates the associations between objects within the laser scan and asset tag information, helping owner operators to reduce operational cost and risk.
Plant owner operators are facing increasingly severe regulatory and commercial challenges for the management of information related to their operational assets. An older plant that has undergone revamp and upgrades throughout its lifecycle presents a particularly difficult problem since most of the original design and maintenance data is quickly out-of-date.
Laser scanning is now the most effective, low-cost method of creating photo-realistic views of an as-built facility. AVEVA IntelliLaser leads the industry in integrating laser-scanned data into an organizations asset management strategy. It does this by creating intelligent “hotspots” that automatically link piping and equipment to all their associated plant information for access through AVEVA NET. The result is an intelligent digital reference of an operational facility created in a fraction of the time it would take when using conventional manual utilities.
AVEVA IntelliLaser incorporates LFM NetView technology, developed by Z&F UK Ltd., a laser scanning technology provider and long-term AVEVA partner. It is built on the AVEVA NET information management solution for easy integration with both AVEVA and third-party applications.
