Scan-to-BIM services
We turn 3D laser scans and point clouds into accurate, object-based BIM models — walls, structure, piping and equipment as intelligent objects, at the LOD you need. A reliable as-built BIM of what's really there, ready for design, coordination and facility management. EU-based, worldwide delivery.

Scan-to-BIM — common questions
What is scan-to-BIM?
Turning a 3D laser scan (point cloud) into an intelligent, object-based BIM model — each element modelled as a real BIM object with geometry and data, at a defined level of detail.
What's the difference between a point cloud and a BIM model?
A point cloud is the raw, millimetre-accurate measurement. A BIM model is the intelligent, object-based representation built from it — usable for design, coordination and management.
Can you create a BIM model from our existing point cloud?
Yes — we can model from your point cloud, or capture a new survey-grade scan.
What LOD do you model to?
Whatever your workflow needs — we agree the level of detail up front so the model is accurate and usable, without over-modelling.
What formats do you deliver?
Native BIM (e.g. Revit RVT) and the formats your team works in, plus the registered point cloud on request.
How do you handle confidentiality?
EU jurisdiction, GDPR and NDA. Most projects are confidential — anonymised references on request.
