Plowman Craven are specialists in capturing, modelling and presenting accurate survey data in support of any scene, police investigation, fire site or any other incident where the capture of accurate scene information is required. Plowman Craven's services have proven to be a valuable asset to investigating teams attempting to answer the question of "What happened?" at a crime scene or a disaster and have often helped to prove a case.
The data is captured using the latest 3d laser scanning technology together with state-of-the-art surveying instrumentation and incorporating high-definition panoramic photography. This equipment, able to be used remotely without hindrance to investigating teams, is constantly being upgraded by Plowman Craven.
Plowman Craven's services have been called upon at literally hundreds of crime scenes and incidents. The Princess Diana inquiry, the 2005 London bombings, the Ipswich serial murders and the Potters Bar rail incident are among the several high-profile investigations that have benefited from the company's services.
Scene Capture
From data collected at the scene a wide variety of products can be produced to visualise a scene. These range from basic two-dimensional drawings to three-dimensional computer-generated models through to complex fully detailed animations.
These visualisations and reconstructions have proved to be an essential aid to investigating teams and in courtroom presentations. They can also increase the validity and enhance the effectiveness of witness statements during an investigation.
It is often said that 'a picture is worth a thousand words'. Imagine the value of an accurate computer generated three-dimensional model.
