Scan-to-BIM in Montreal — FAQ

Do you build Revit models?

No — we deliver BIM-conversion-ready 3D laser scan data (E57, RCP, LAS). Your in-house team or a Canadian BIM modelling firm builds the Revit / Archicad model.

Formats?

E57, RCP, LAS, OBJ registered point clouds plus panoramic imagery.

IFC?

Point clouds are source data; IFC model generation is performed downstream by your BIM modeller.

Heritage?

Vieux-Montréal's 18th-century buildings are captured at heritage grade to support HBIM where the end goal is BIM-based conservation under the Loi sur le patrimoine culturel.

Handoff?

Registered deliverables with coordinate references for seamless BIM handoff, in English and French.

Montreal Scan-to-BIM FAQ

What 3D scanning services do you offer in Montreal?

We provide comprehensive 3D scanning services throughout Greater Montreal including laser scanning, Matterport virtual tours, drone photogrammetry, Scan-to-BIM data, and as-built documentation. Our services support port infrastructure, heritage preservation in Old Montreal, and commercial developments.

Can you scan heritage buildings in Old Montreal?

Yes. Old Montreal's 17th-century architecture requires precision heritage documentation. Our scanning captures stone masonry, ironwork, and architectural details at ±2-4mm accuracy for preservation planning, structural assessment, and adaptive reuse design meeting Quebec heritage standards.

Do you support port and infrastructure projects?

Yes. The Port of Montreal's $850 million Contrecoeur expansion represents the scale of infrastructure we serve. Our 3D scanning provides site surveys, progress monitoring, and as-built documentation for marine, road, and transit projects.

What drone regulations apply in Montreal?

Transport Canada regulates drone operations. Montreal has extensive restricted airspace including Trudeau International Airport and the Old Port area. All commercial flights require Advanced RPAS pilot certification and Special Flight Operations Certificates. Our team manages all regulatory requirements.
