AI-powered image beautification for the Leica BLK360: closing the gap between capture and reality

Now, with GeoCloud AI image enhancement: a vivid, accurate-to-life scan of a wide street mural, with rich colour and clarity restored.

Every deliverable you produce and every decision your stakeholders sign-off on rests on the trust they establish with accurate, visually intelligible data. In reality capture, imagery is the visual language used to communicate expert and specialised deliverables and data to stakeholders. When visuals are dull, noisy or inconsistent, confidence erodes, review cycles stretch, and the gap between what was captured on site and what the data actually shows starts to widen.

That gap is exactly what the latest Hexagon GeoCloud release is designed to close.

Sharper imagery from your BLK360 scans in GeoCloud

With AI-powered image beautification for the BLK360, teams can trigger beautification to enhance imagery from LGSx files published into GeoCloud from the latest Leica Cyclone REGISTER 360 PLUS. Using computational photography, the solution enriches the BLK360’s HDR imagery to give teams vibrant, more accurate-to-life visuals. There is no manual clean-up of imagery via export/re-import of image files to edit in additional applications.

This matters because image quality shapes decisions across field-to-office and collaborative workflows with project members and stakeholders. The clearer your visuals, the faster and more confidently everyone downstream can act, from the surveyor validating site conditions to the client reviewing a final deliverable. By enhancing imagery after import, GeoCloud turns raw capture into review-ready visuals.

How image quality drives ROI

Stunning realism keeps clients confident

True-to-life imagery with rich colour and clarity is the standard clients ask for: 3D walkthroughs are now a regular project deliverable, and some projects are commissioned purely for data visualisation. When a site is rendered in immersive, lifelike detail, stakeholders recognise it instantly, engage more readily, and question less. That builds the kind of lasting confidence your business can rely on.

Eliminate manual image processing

Too often field crews return from a site capture to face hours of manually processing and cleaning up the captured data before it is fit to share. It is slow, repetitive work, and the results shift depending on who does it. AI-powered image beautification of the BLK360 removes that step entirely, enhancing imagery consistently. Teams move straight into analysis and deliverables, so projects move faster and output stays consistent.

Improve accuracy across workflows

Clearer imagery is not only about presentation. When working from more accurate-to-life visuals, teams can validate conditions with greater certainty and produce reliable outputs. Fine detail that might be lost in poorly balanced imagery, such as a surface defect, obstruction, or small equipment element, becomes visible and actionable.

Maximise the value of every BLK360 scan

A capture is an investment of time, travel and equipment, and the more usable data you extract from each one, the stronger your return. By generating more high-quality geodata from every scan, beautification helps teams get full value from work already done in the field, with fewer revisits and richer deliverables.
