Traditional Yacht Documentation with 3D Scanning

To digitally document and preserve the design, construction, and details of a traditional yacht. The project ensures accurate records for restoration, maintenance, and historical preservation while enabling modern applications such as refits, class approvals, or digital showcases.

• Survey & Scanning
  • High-resolution 3D laser scanning and drone photogrammetry performed on the yacht’s exterior and interior.
  • Capture of fine details including woodwork, deck layouts, masts, rigging points, and structural geometry.
• Data Processing
  • Creation of an accurate 3D point cloud of the vessel.
  • Conversion into CAD-ready geometry for naval architecture and engineering purposes.
• Modeling & Documentation
  • Development of digital 3D models of hull, superstructure, and interior arrangements.
  • Generation of technical drawings: General Arrangement (GA), lines plans, and construction details.
  • High-quality renders for visualization and owner communication.
• Archival & Digital Twin
  • Creation of a digital twin of the yacht for long-term documentation.
  • Secure storage for use in future repairs, refits, or class compliance.

• Restoration Support: Accurate documentation of existing geometry for traditional boatyards and craftsmen.
• Regulatory Compliance: Provides precise plans required for class societies and authorities.
• Heritage Preservation: Ensures traditional yachts are digitally preserved for future generations.
• Design Modifications: Simplifies refit design and modern equipment integration while respecting original aesthetics.
• Owner Engagement: 3D visuals and renders offer immersive understanding for owners and stakeholders.

• Complete 3D CAD model of hull, deck, and interior.
• 2D drawings (GA, lines, sections, details).
• Photo-realistic renders for owner presentations.
• Digital twin stored for archival and future use.

This project format can be tailored depending on whether it’s for:

• Private owners (heritage preservation)
• Shipyards (refits & modifications)
• Museums & cultural institutions (archival & research)
