Glen Canyon Dam 3D Model

This past summer, eTrac teamed up with Autodesk and R2Sonic to collect data using LiDAR, photogrammetry, and sonar technology to create a 3D model of the Glen Canyon Dam and the power plant facility. This model will be used for design, operation and management, asset management, monitoring, security, and public outreach and education. In addition, the model will give U.S. Bureau of Reclamation personnel a better overall understanding of the facility and its interrelated systems.
