We provide these services to make foundational aspects of constructing buildings strong by collecting structure data points and converting them into highly accurate 2D and 3D BIM models. Both, Scan to BIM and Point Cloud to BIM have certain connected elements and differences :

  • Both Scan to BIM and Point Cloud to BIM services have a single aim of converting data points generated from scanning the existing structure into highly detailed and simplified 2D and 3D BIM models.
  • The process for creating high-quality BIM models starts with Scan To BIM Modeling which generate accurate data points of the structure and creates well-detailed BIM models. Point cloud to BIM services generate accurate models for each data point and then integrate all models into a single highly accurate BIM model.
  • Point Cloud BIM Services acts as a catalyst for the whole process of creating and building information models as it focuses on developing detailed models for each data point generated and then it builds models on top of that to ensure high accuracy and instructions for a complete model which is generated
  • Both Services focus on drafting informative 3D models to help architects and engineers with a simplified and error-less redevelopment process of the structure.
  • The benefits of 3D Scan To BIM and Revit Point Cloud Modeling go beyond just creating precise geometry and integrate detailed instructions for each structural component so that during redevelopment, following this manual would result in no errors, and the journey would be extremely uncomplicated for construction workers.

Advanced Procedures for Successful 3D Laser Scanning BIM Services

Silicon Valley’s Point Cloud Modeling Services begins with data collection by 3D Scanning Of Buildings using laser scanners, drones, and other cameras from various angles to record data points. By accumulating more points, the final portrayal of the terrain gets more detailed. These points help to create the 3D model of the site.

There are two ways of gathering point cloud data with Revit Point Cloud Modeling, firstly with the method of surface reconstruction, which includes a drone camera to create points from numerous images taken at different angles and superimposing them to form a point cloud. Another method is using remote sensing for laser scanning point cloud services. Drones are used for measuring distances and gathering data.

Point cloud data is the key to generating accurate, detailed, high-resolution models. Point Cloud data collection is used for varied applications such as infrastructure development, residential projects, and commercial sites. Our team utilizes their hands-on technical skills with a proven system to carry out Point Cloud Modeling Services and Point Cloud To BIM Modeling Services Successfully :

  • The first stage is Preliminary Planning and assessment of the site location, at this stage maps and information about topography, soils, vegetation, and any existing infrastructure on the construction location can be reviewed. After this, we start collecting point cloud data.
  • Point Cloud Data Collection, we utilize two techniques, Remote sensing and surface reconstruction. Remote sensing involves laser scanning drones with sensors, and surface implementation utilizes drone cameras for gathering data. The Point Cloud data collection is saved in an E57, LAS, PTX, or PTS-like file format. Several of these file types are acceptable with an extensive collection of point cloud analysis programs.
  • Point Cloud Data Analysis, Point Cloud Data gathered by site surveyors is then analyzed by 3D specialists in software such as Trimble Sketchup, Commander, Autodesk AutoCAD, or Autodesk Revit. They convert it into a point cloud from a collection of points.
  • Point Cloud Model Creation, Engineers can develop CAD or BIM, depending on the preferred format by the client, after they generate and improve point cloud data. The site’s topography, height variations, vegetation, and other elements are all described in detail in the 3D model. This data helps with many things, such as project tracking and machine control.
