When you go to the grocery store to purchase groceries, they scan your items using the bar code. This not only keeps track of what you bought on your receipt, but it also provides information on price, sales, and inventory. And despite looking similar, each bar code is unique, similar to your fingerprints.
But, did you know your property also has a bar code? Before now, the "scanner" for that bar code was a contractor who would use a tape measure (at best, a laser) to take measurements to manually collect elevations for your project. That allowed for a wide margin of human error that would greatly affect the outcome of your project.
Until now.
RediPour has already drastically changed the game after introducing a Robotic Laser to collect your property's bar code. This technology allowed RediPour to reduce the amount of hours spent at the site collecting data, and provided more accurate information, including water runoff data and the ability to spot potential trouble areas before they become a problem.
In an effort to improve that process further, RediPour is getting ready to introduce technology that takes the data collection of your property/project to the highest level with a Scanner.
How does this benefit you?
When a contractor collects info on your project, they collect only length and width of your property and collect 20-30 elevations to follow. They don't identify exact points, known as Northings and Eastings, which are the exact north and east points that are totally unqiue to your property. No other property in the world has that exact point, and said point has a specific elevation tied to it.
What makes this important is that when you are planning your project, you want the plan to fit exactly so that there is no margin for error. That could mean the difference between having your dream project fulfilled quickly and easily or spending thousands of dollars down the line on repairs or design changes that could still result in a disappointing product for you.
Go to a grocery store and examine a bar code. The standard one has 31 lines, which is used to accurately reflect the information about what your buying when it is scanned. Now, imagine having that same process done to your entire property with high accuracy. That's what you'll get with RediPour's new Scanner technology.
