What is Scan-to-BIM?

Scan-to-BIM is the process of converting raw point cloud data from 3D laser scanning into intelligent Building Information Models (BIM). Unlike simple 3D geometry, BIM models contain parametric objects with embedded information. **The Process:** 1. 3D scanning captures accurate geometry 2. Point cloud is registered and cleaned 3. Modelers trace over point cloud 4. Objects are created with types and properties 5. Model is quality-checked against point cloud **What You Get:** - Walls, floors, ceilings as BIM objects - Doors and windows with specifications - MEP systems with sizes and types - Structural elements with properties **Benefits:** - Accurate existing conditions for design - Clash detection with new systems - Quantity takeoffs from model - Facility management database - Integration with FM software **Level of Development (LOD):** - LOD 200: Basic geometry - LOD 300: Accurate with types - LOD 350: Coordination-ready - LOD 400: Fabrication-ready We model in Revit, ArchiCAD, or your preferred platform.
