Scan to BIM

At Virtually Built MEP we provide Scan to BIM 3D modelling services, using the latest technology to convert point cloud and laser survey data into sophisticated 3D BIM models for architects, surveyors and main contractors. We also provide MEP Scan to BIM services for consulting engineers, MEP designers and MEP contractors.

Our BIM models are created using Autodesk Revit Architecture and Autodesk Revit MEP. The raw survey data is compiled from the rapid processing of millions of site data points and images, as part of the Scan to BIM process. We can also use the raw survey data and images from laser survey tools with a range of specialist software tools to create accurate architectural and MEP models of existing buildings.

Scanners identify a structure’s surface details for point cloud information. Point clouds thus include precise and large amounts of data and can be converted to object-based BIM models, where scanned data is converted to BIM data. Our point cloud to BIM modelling service creates accurate models for as-built purposes as well as for retrofit, refurbishment and renovation projects.

Scan to BIM allows you to create a highly accurate three-dimensional digital representation of your building – in a reduced amount of time without the possibility for human error.
