Crime Scenes
At any crime, preservation and data capture of the scene is imperative if best evidence is to be achieved. Plowman Craven is a leader in forensic geomatics with years of experience in scene reconstruction, assisting investigations and ensuring degradable data is captured.
With highly specialist equipment and staff, we are able to record the entire scene three-dimensionally and provide the investigation team with many options in relation to reconstruction, animations or computer visualisations. Outputs range from plan drawings to three-dimensional computer-generated models through to complex fully detailed animations - all of which can be extremely powerful in the courtroom and greatly assist the jury in understanding complex situations or lengthy witness statements.
Plowman Craven's dedicated team of surveyors and 3D modellers are available on a 24/7 callout basis. All are security vetted and have attended courses on forensic awareness. This experienced team attend crime and incident scenes anywhere in the world.
We have been involved in hundreds of inquiries, many of them high profile, in which state-of-the-art technology proved invaluable to the investigative team in providing conclusive solutions.
