3D Scanning of Buildings and large facilities
Nothing compares to 3D scanning when it comes to accurately capturing as-built measurements of a large building. If you have been given the task of creating as-built drawings the old fashioned way, you know how challenging that can be. 3D scanning can relieve you of this burden. A long range 3D scanner can capture an entire facility in a matter of hours with an accuracy that is 1/8″ or better.
What can you get from a 3D Scan?
As-Built 3D Revit Model
An as-built Revit model can be created at any LOD level you need. Through a process called “scan-to-BIM”, our expert modeling team quickly creates high quality, fully implemented Revit models. QA/QC is applied throughout the process, ensuring that you receive the quality result you expect. Other formats are available including AutoCAD DWG, Solidworks, STP, IGES and many more,
2D Plan and Elevation Views
With a 3D laser scanning project, 2D drawings can be created in two ways:
Virtual Reality Walkthrough
From your scan we can create a fully immersive Virtual Reality walk-through experience that will work with your off-the-shelf VR headset.
Full color point clouds for modeling
If you have the capability to do your own as-built modeling from point clouds, we can be your field acquisition partner. Since we do CAD modeling ourselves, we know how to plan a scan so that you are set up for success in capturing all of the detail that is needed for the 3D modeling. We also optimize the point cloud for modeling to make work lighter and faster.
Beautiful, compelling point cloud imagery for visualization purposes
Beautiful full-color Images can be generated for presentation purposes or to add impact to a proposal. The 3d laser scanner uses its on-board camera to capture color, making these images realistic and at times stunning. Animations and videos can also be created, such as fly-through or orbit videos. It is even possible to create 3D virtual reality experiences. We look forward to helping you create an engaging presentation.
BIM - we do it better than anybody
Building Information Modeling has become the standard operating procedure for construction projects. When renovating existing buildings for which no drawings exist, it is necessary to first collect existing conditions to implement the building information modelling in a modern CAD program. Our 3D building scanning services can collecting these existing conditions.
Our company is geared toward getting you an accurate and high quality BIM model from your scan in record time. With a QA/QC process at all stages during the project, you can be assured that you will receive an as-built 3D Revit model that meets industry standards, and more importantly, your standards.
