Digitally Documenting Detroit’s Past: Packard Plant Preserved with 3D Technology

Detroit’s Packard Automotive Plant, opened in 1903 and a symbol of America’s 20th century industrial prowess, is a prime a prime example of a historical manufacturing space, left unused and undocumented. Once the pinnacle of America’s automotive prowess, the Packard Plant has been largely vacant for decades, a behemoth industrial space that will soon face demolition as per a judge’s order. Watch this video to see how the 3D focus scanner and 360° imaging are the ideal digital documentation and preservation solutions, capable of capturing the measurements of a large building or facility in a matter of days that otherwise could take weeks with conventional documentation methods. Learn how the 3D laser scanner also enables the creation of digital twins, virtual replicas of the physical environment that can be accessed multiple times without data degradation as blueprints to reference structural changes that have taken place over time — either through human intent or weathering and erosion. Beyond the Packard Plant itself, accurate digital twins of buildings, including structure, in-wall, in-slab, above-ceiling, equipment and finishings – all enable owners and architects to design updates and additions efficiently, saving time and money in the process. Combined with 360° photo documentation, it is now possible to obtain as-built capturing and modeling of an entire space in only a few days’ time – which can aid in the logistics and scheduling of any job site as it moves towards completion. In Detroit’s case, digitally preserving historic buildings like the Packard Plant, and others, allows the city to look to the future while remembering its past.
