What is Scan to BIM?

Scan to BIM is a transformative process that involves creating a digital representation of a physical space or site using advanced 3D laser scanning technology. This process begins with capturing detailed point cloud data, which maps every surface and feature of the space with high precision. The point cloud data is then meticulously processed and converted into a Building Information Modelling (BIM) model. A BIM model is a comprehensive digital representation of a building’s physical and functional characteristics, serving as a shared knowledge resource throughout the building’s entire lifecycle. This digital model is invaluable for various applications, including design, construction, and facility management, ensuring that all stakeholders have access to accurate and up-to-date information.

Our 3D Scan to BIM Process

Collection

Our process begins with sophisticated 3D laser scanning technology, which captures accurate measurements and high-quality data of physical buildings and spaces. This reality capture method generates detailed point cloud data, mapping every surface with unparalleled precision. The resulting spatial data forms the foundation for creating both 2D and 3D as-built documentation and detailed BIM models, emphasizing geometric accuracy essential for efficient project workflows.

Data Processing

After collecting raw scan data and point cloud data, we meticulously clean and refine it, removing noise and irrelevant elements. This refined data serves as the basis for converting point cloud data into accurate BIM models using advanced modelling tools. Our scan to BIM workflows ensure the captured data reflects existing conditions with precise measurements, supporting better planning and reducing project delays.

Conversion

We transform the processed point cloud into detailed, editable BIM models that integrate seamlessly with BIM solutions and modelling software. Our experts utilize leading BIM tools to accurately depict the scanned data, capturing every architectural and structural element, including electrical fixtures and complex features, to support construction planning and as-built models for renovation projects.

Detailing

At this stage, we enhance BIM models with essential technical information, including dimensions, specifications, and metadata, thereby preparing them for use in the construction phase or facility management. These detailed models enable project teams and stakeholders to identify potential clashes and costly errors early in the project lifecycle, facilitating timely adjustments and ensuring smoother project timelines and improved building lifecycle management.
