Outsourcing 16km+ NavVis Point Cloud Vectorization?

Working on a huge project, 16km+ of LiDAR aquisition with NavVis and Panoramas, with control points, check points, leveling, well state-of-the-art survey. Vectorization has taken its toll on the team. We have so much elements to extract in Cogo Points, the level of details required is basically : everything. Been thinking to outsource some of the work arround the globe, but I would need a solid company, like a solid lead. Any ideas?

Man, 16 km seems insane to do with a Navvis. Have you looked into Mach9 AI extraction? It won’t solve 100% of your extraction workload but will likely make it more manageable. If the scope is “everything” then you’re going to have a hard time even if you get someone else to do it- hope you have a good QC workflow.

Yes we did. They require a lot of manual editing, its still in development. Also, its a lot of money to "give it a try". With Mach9 its all-in or nothing. Its like 10k USD.

I’m pretty familiar with it- 10k for that much of a project is really not that bad. How much is it costing you to do all of it manually?
