Do you deliver CAD or BIM files (DWG, Revit, IFC)?
Category: deliverables
No — THE FUTURE 3D delivers accurate scan data only: point clouds (XYZ, E57, LAS, RCP), a 3D OBJ mesh, PDF reports, and Matterport 3D tours. We do not produce CAD or BIM files (DWG, DXF, Revit/.rvt, or IFC). If you need CAD or BIM, you have three options: convert our point cloud yourself, hand it to a third-party BIM/CAD firm, or open your own Matterport Professional account (~$69/mo + tax) — we transfer the 3D tour to you and you order Matterport's CAD/BIM add-on directly. Our responsibility is limited to performing the scan and delivering your point-cloud files, so please don't hire us with the expectation that Matterport (or anyone) will convert your scan into CAD/BIM — we make no promise Matterport offers that add-on and are not liable if Matterport changes, reprices, or discontinues it. In every case we take no responsibility for the CAD/BIM you make or obtain, and offer no support on conversion issues, unless the issue traces to a defect in our scanning or point-cloud phase.
