Laser Scanning at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles

GTEC3D is proud to announce the successful completion of a 3D laser scanning project at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles (CHLA), one of the nation’s top pediatric hospitals. Spearheaded by our Los Angeles-based partner, Eric Guizzetti, this project marks another step forward in leveraging advanced reality capture technologies to support critical infrastructure in the healthcare sector.
Capturing with Purpose: Precision at the Heart of Healthcare
Children’s Hospital Los Angeles is more than just a medical facility — it’s a place of hope, healing, and innovation. When CHLA approached us with the need for accurate, up-to-date digital documentation of its existing facilities, our team knew the stakes were high. Precision and minimal disruption were paramount, and 3D laser scanning was the clear solution.
Utilizing state-of-the-art terrestrial laser scanners, our team captured millions of data points throughout the designated areas, creating a highly accurate as-built point cloud of the hospital’s spaces. These scans are essential for upcoming renovations, facility management, and ongoing safety assessments — all while minimizing the need for intrusive manual measurements.
A Collaborative Effort, Led by Local Expertise
Heading the operation in LA, Eric Guizzetti brought deep regional experience and technical acumen to the project. His leadership ensured a seamless scanning process that met the hospital’s strict operational and safety requirements. Working closely with hospital staff, the team was able to conduct scans outside of peak patient hours, ensuring zero disruption to patient care.
“It’s an honor to work on a project that directly supports the people who care for our community’s most vulnerable,” said Guizzetti. “By providing CHLA with reliable digital assets, we’re enabling smarter renovations and safer planning — all backed by precise data.”
Why 3D Laser Scanning Matters in Healthcare Facilities
Hospitals are complex environments, often with limited access for traditional surveying methods. Laser scanning offers several advantages in these settings:
Non-intrusive data capture with minimal impact on operations
High accuracy for planning and retrofitting spaces
Improved coordination across architecture, engineering, and construction teams
Digital twins for future design, facility management, and compliance
Building a Smarter Future with GTEC3D
At GTEC3D, we believe in building smarter, safer spaces by harnessing the power of reality capture. Our work at CHLA exemplifies how cutting-edge technology, combined with local expertise, can make a real-world impact — especially in environments where every detail matters.
We’re grateful to Children’s Hospital Los Angeles for trusting us with this important project, and we’re proud to support their mission with data that makes a difference.
