AR for Building/Vertical Construction

Construction-grade augmented reality system for building construction and indoor projects.

Construction-Grade AR for Indoors

vGIS AR provides simple access to BIM information for everyone at the construction site. Being able to see BIM models in the form of accurate augmented reality visuals overlying the physical world enables workers to consult HVAC, MEP, structural, and other engineering drawings in the most intuitive way possible.

Overlaid with centimeter-level accuracy, augmented reality visuals help prevent errors, rework, project delays, and cost overruns by providing an accurate view of the job at hand.

No special equipment is required. Use devices already in your pocket — Android and iOS devices, or even the futuristic Microsoft HoloLens — to make the system available to everyone.

Industry Case Study

Why the vSite Platform?

Displaying design drawings as 3D objects in Augmented reality and digital twin gives you:

Project efficiency with improved collaboration, simplified workflow, improved communication, and increased productivity.

Project quality with improved accuracy, issue resolution, and error reduction.

Project safety with better understanding of your surrounding and improved work safety environment.

vSite is easy to use and automatically creates an accurate 3D digital twin and Augmented Reality of the worksite using design files including BIM and GIS datasets (IFC, DWG, DXF, and many others) or from Common Data Environments (CDEs) Autodesk Construction Cloud (BIM 360), Bentley iTwin, Esri ArcGIS, and many others.

The Benefits of Deploying vSite

  • 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

  • 85%

    faster understanding of surroundings

  • 80%

    faster review of potential clashes

  • 30-50%

    less time required for clash reviews

  • Up to 100%

    reduction in drawing-AR conversions

Case Study: Augmented reality in construction

Building construction with high-accuracy AR

Bring your BIM data to your construction site. Powerful integrations with Esri ArcGIS, Bentley iTwin and other sources enable fully automated model retrieval directly from your project repositories, which eliminates the manual effort required to convert BIM and GIS data into 3D objects. Location services display information relevant to each individual user directly on-site.

Announcement from the recent release of the vGIS Indoor AR functionality. The engineering-grade augmented reality from vGIS is deployed to address multiple aspects of a typical construction project – from stakeholder engagement to QA/QC checks to project documentation with reality capture.

The best part of vGIS is the way it handles geospatial data - you add the data as you need, from different sources and formats, and the system merges it into a unified digital twin automatically.

You could add the entire underground utility of a city, and the app stills runs smoothly.
