Forensic Animation

Scientifically accurate 3D animations recreate accidents, crimes, fires, explosions, product failures, and other events from expert analysis and physical evidence.

Laser Scanning

Terrestrial 3D laser scanning captures precise spatial measurements of scenes, buildings, vehicles, and infrastructure for analysis, modeling, and courtroom presentation.

Interactive 3D Models

Interactive virtual models let legal teams explore reconstructed scenes from multiple viewpoints, clarify spatial relationships, and communicate complex evidence.

Drone Imagery

UAV imagery documents large accident scenes, crime scenes, industrial sites, and properties, producing accurate 3D models while preserving important visual evidence.

Photogrammetry

Close-range photogrammetry extracts three-dimensional measurements from photographs, videos, surveillance footage, dashcams, and images of physical evidence.

Expert Witness

Expert witness support explains forensic visualization, scanning, photogrammetry, and animation methodologies through technically accurate demonstrative evidence and courtroom testimony.

Court-Ready Visual Evidence

Make Complex Evidence Easier To Understand

Forensic mapping turns physical evidence into dimensionally accurate, verifiable visualizations that clarify what happened and where it happened. From laser scans and aerial imagery to photogrammetry and interactive models, each deliverable is grounded in physical evidence and supported by documented methodology. The result is clearer communication for attorneys, experts, judges, and juries in civil and criminal matters.
