Scan to BIM

Laser scanning to precise as-built Revit models. QA/QC against point cloud data for renovations and retrofits.

Service Overview

Scan-to-BIM converts raw laser scan point cloud data into accurate, LOD-compliant Revit models that capture existing conditions with millimeter precision. Whether you are planning a renovation, validating as-built conditions against design intent, or creating a baseline for facilities management, our team delivers models built to your LOD specification, documented against survey data, and ready for immediate use in design and construction workflows.

How We Work
1

Site Scanning

High-density scans are captured using Faro Focus or Leica RTC360 scanners at scan positions planned to ensure full coverage with minimal occlusion.

2

Point Cloud Registration

Individual scan positions are registered into a unified, georeferenced point cloud in Recap Pro, with residual error reports documenting accuracy.

3

BIM Modeling

Revit models are built directly against the point cloud to the specified LOD, capturing all visible elements including structure, architectural finishes, MEP, and equipment.

4

QA/QC Validation

Model elements are compared against the point cloud using deviation analysis tools, with variance reports showing accuracy within project tolerance bands.

5

Deliverable Package

We deliver the registered point cloud, Revit as-built model, deviation report, and a model usage guide covering file structure and LOD boundaries.

Why It Matters
Eliminates costly surprises during renovation by capturing true existing conditions
Delivers 3–10mm accuracy versus 50–100mm for manual tape-measure surveys
Creates a permanent digital record of the building as it exists today
Enables clash detection between new design elements and existing structure
Reduces rework from incorrect field dimensions by up to 90%
