Why choose uniTank

 Scanner Agnostic

uniTank works with all the common laser scanners out there. It accepts point clouds in any of the generic formats (E57, PTX, PTS). uniTank even comes with a tool that shows you how many scans you need and where to place them. Based on our extensive experience with using laser scanning within the storage tank environment, this tool is optimized to maximize data quality in critical areas and ensures adequate overlap for registration.

 Registration

Our cutting edge targetless registration system allows you to save time both in the field and in the office. No longer do you need to carry bulky spheres with you on the plane or tape up targets only to have them fall off as you scan. Our advanced registration algorithms can achieve unmatched accuracy in less time with less hassle, even in the most adverse situations.

 Classification

Our automated classification tools are fine tuned for storage tanks. So rest assured, we can find all your tank parts quickly without having to muck around point by point. Poorly classified data can lead to embarrassing results, so don’t let that happen to you!

 Standards Compliance

Integrated standards compliance assessment for settlement, verticality, roundness, strapping/calibration, secondary containment, and more (API 650, API 653, API MPMS 2.2). We have been at this a long time, so if there’s a tool you need, we probably have it.

 Customizable Reports

Our automated reporting module allows you to customize your reports using templates, so they come out just the way you like them, every time. Need a different flavor for each customer? Make as many templates as you need! Don’t waste your time putting your reports together by hand and risk inserting the wrong chart in the wrong place. Let us do the heavy lifting, we’ll get it right, guaranteed!

 2-way Workflow

Why is a single software package better? Simply put, you can step backwards in your workflow. There are two significant advantages to this:

• You spend less time redoing work. With a 1-way workflow, if a problem arises, you need to redo all the work from when the problem occurred. You typically don’t find a registration problem until you get to the analysis. However, tweaking your registration means starting all over again. A 2-way workflow means you can quickly repair the problem without having to redo subsequent steps.
• If you know you can step backwards, you spend less time trudging forwards. With a 1-way workflow, you spend a lot of time polishing your registration and combing through your classification, trying to get it perfect before moving ahead. Knowing you can step backwards means you fix problems when they become problems. With uniTank, you proceed through the workflow quickly and address issues only if they impact the end result, which is what really matters.

 Continuous Improvement

Can’t find what you’re looking for? Make a request to our development team and we’ll try to fit it into our next release cycle. uniTank is the same software we use internally to inspect hundreds of tanks a year. So if there’s a tool that will benefit you, it will likely benefit us too!

 Customer Service

Unlike other software vendors where you send your requests and grievances into the void, we listen to your input! Many of our new features are a direct result of customer feedback and requests. We can only get better with your help. Just hear what our customers have to say:
