Our Scan-to-BIM service is a powerful solution tailored for architects, engineers, and other professionals. It offers a streamlined approach for creating accurate as-built Autodesk Revit BIMs and AutoCAD building plans, enabling easily integration into your project workflow. These services help to reduce project timelines and expenses while enhancing overall project management.
Our skilled technicians use specialized ground-based and drone-mounted LiDAR and visual scanners for comprehensive data capture. Our multi-sensor data capture process allows us to scan building and site details to centimetre-level accuracy, including: facades, roofs, mechanical systems, fixtures, topographic features, and more. To ensure a high level of quality for exterior and topographic data, we employ surveying techniques including Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) technology and Ground Control Points (GCPs).
We process aerial and terrestrial LiDAR data, refining it by eliminating noise and artifacts. In addition to LiDAR data, we process high-resolution RBG photographs to create accurate 3D models using a technique called photogrammetry. This data is georeferenced using Ground Control Points (GCPs) to ensure cm-level accuracy. In order provide a comprehensive view of your building and site, we align these LiDAR and Photogrammetry datasets allowing us to fill in any gaps or errors in information that may exist in a single dataset.
We can model as-built Architectural, MEP (Mechanical, Electrical & Plumbing), and Furniture & Asset Building Information Models (BIMs) that digitally represent your building's structure, systems, components and surrounding topography. Our LOD 300 or higher BIMs are delivered as fully editable Autodesk Revit (.rvt) files, providing a head start for your project and improving project management.
Our in-house drafting team creates precise building plans in AutoCAD, adhering to Canadian standards. These plans are delivered in fully editable AutoCAD (.dwg) format, allowing you to effortlessly integrate them into your project workflow. The plans include:
Our expert team uses the latest specialized RPAS and 3D technologies ensuring that your project is completed to the highest standards of accuracy, safety, and efficiency.
