LiDAR Point Cloud to 3D BIM Model

MaRS Trans USA has become the top pick in AEC sectors for clients when it comes to laser scanning to BIM services. We provide scan-to-bim services to a great array of clientele including construction companies, facility management companies, contractors, MEP firms, and building surveyors. Our Point Cloud Technician and BIM Modeler team have derived quality solutions for Scan-to-BIM services.

We received laser survey data with the help of LiDAR and 3D laser scanner on behalf of the clients. The scanners used for building surveys are Faro, Matterport, Trimble and Riegl. Our team gathers the scanned data in the original point cloud formats like .fls, .fws, .ptg, etc. Then an excellent BIM model is created from that data by our team.

The BIM industry entirely relies upon the tools and factors that smoothen the architectural, construction and reconstruction processes. Surveyors and professionals work in coordination to deliver the desired BIM model to clients. Our professionals properly turn the scan data into a digital model which undergoes different phases of BIM.

Our Expertise in Scan to BIM

We have extensive experience in providing Point Cloud to Revit 3D Modeling services throughout North America. Our team excels in all types of building and infrastructure projects due to their unique expertise in Building Information Modeling. Have a glimpse at what we have to offer the clientele globally:

Transforming Laser Scans into BIM Models: Our professionals are quite adept at converting basic point cloud data into a precise BIM model along with detailed 2D CAD drawings and 3D Revit modeling.
MEP BIM model generation: We generate the MEP BIM Model using obtained scanned data that depicts the correct locations of existing MEP systems like pipes, ducts, and wiring. It enhances the coordination between the stackholders and also detects the clashes to build a safe and sound MEP project.
Calibrating scan points: We provide our assistance in recognizing and calibrating the scanned model points to attain accurate dimension measurement.

Built BIM models: Our modelers facilitate as-built BIM models that give a correct course to scan to the BIM process. It enables the users to have classified project plans consisting of drawings, elevations, and documents for better facility management.
Revit & CAD 3D model: We have skilled BIM designers who skillfully create and build BIM models using software like Revit & AutoCAD. They convert the raw scanned point cloud data into a 3D model. We can develop an accurate Revit model by converting any point cloud data, such as .RCS, .RCP, .E57, .PTS, .LAS, .LAZ etc., to any format, such as .DWG, .RVT, .PCG, .FLS, .DGN etc. It offers extremely precise and realistic data to the clients.

Our Specialty in Scan to BIM

3D Scan to BIM Modeling for Commercial and Residential Building

Commercial & Residential Buildings

Point Cloud to BIM modeling smoothens the various construction processes like renovation & remodeling projects easily. It is the most precise means of collecting building details and putting them into execution effortlessly. The commercial & residential structures get top-notch accuracy & quality while executing.

Scan to BIM Modeling for historic building preservation

Heritage & Historical Buildings

The historical buildings are distinguished from the modern era designs due to their unique elements. The intricate works and detailings generate complex design elements. The organized design data gets used throughout the project after using the scan to BIM process. Large-scale projects required a higher degree of planning and execution.

Large Scale Projects

Large-scale projects such as metro stations, airports, and public places require a high degree of planning and execution. The in-depth detailing required to renovate such projects. Scan to BIM helps in collecting the required data concerned with location, modifications, and conversions to transform them into the best version possible.

Our Process for Scan to BIM

01

Developing Objectives and Determining Requirements

Our priority is to understand the needs and expectations of the client's end. We focus on fixed objectives and have detailed discussions with the clients to perceive the objective better.

02

Collect 3D Scanned Data

Building surveyors conduct an onsite visit to do laser scanning. They are equipped with raw point cloud data which are used during the different phases of the BIM process. We collect that scan data to convert in to the BIM model.

03

Conversion of Scanned Data into 3D Models

The BIM modelers convert the scanned data from different disciplines into as-built 3D models in LOD 500 parameters using Revit.

04

Recheck over possible shortcomings

The senior executives conduct a fair validation process to examine the possible flaws of the as-built model before its delivery.

05

Final Delivery

We hand over the customized BIM model that fits into clients' needs after undergoing proper supervision.
