Asset survey based on Lidar technology
We provide comprehensive 3D Reality Capture services using cutting-
edge LiDAR technology. Our team collects millions of highly accurate
measurement points (point clouds) to establish the perfect digital
foundation for your Scan-to-BIM needs, completely eliminating the errors
associated with traditional surveying methods.
Our Data Collection Methodologies
1. Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS)
- Millimeter Accuracy: Best suited for projects demanding ultra- high precision tolerances (±1-2mm).
- Static Scans: We utilize industry-leading tripods and scanners to capture comprehensive interior and exterior geometries.
- Best For: Historical preservation, industrial processing plants, and complex MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing) networks.
2. Mobile Mapping & SLAM Technology
- Speed & Agility: We scan on the move using handheld or backpack-mounted SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) systems.
- Minimized Downtime: Reduces on-site field data collection time by up to 70% compared to traditional static methods.
- Best For: Active retail malls, operational hospitals, massive warehouses, and linear infrastructure.
3. Aerial Drone Surveying (UAV LiDAR & Photogrammetry)
- High-Altitude Capture: Safely maps inaccessible rooftops, facades, and expansive land topographies.
- Hybrid Datasets: Combines dense LiDAR point clouds with high- resolution, color-accurate aerial photography.
- Best For: Topographic surveys, active construction sites, structural roof inspections, and volumetric earthwork calculations.
Deliverables & Quality Standards
- Photorealistic RGB Data: Colorized point clouds for clear material identification and easier object recognition during modeling.
- Geo-Referencing: Complete alignment of the point cloud to local or national coordinate systems via surveyed Ground Control Points (GCPs).
- Software-Agnostic Outputs: We deliver files fully optimized for all major BIM authoring platforms (.E57, .LAS, .LAZ, .RCP, .RCS).
Why Choose Our LiDAR Services
| Traditional Surveying | Our LiDAR Services | |
|---|---|---|
| Field Speed | Days or weeks of manual tape/total station measurements | Hours or a few days of high-speed scanning |
| Data Completeness | Selective point sampling (risk of missing critical areas) | Millions of data points capturing every visual detail |
1. Data Processing & Cloud Registration
- Multi-Scan Alignment: We index and merge disparate laser scans into a unified, geo-referenced coordinate system.
- Point Cloud Cleaning: Our team eliminates digital noise, moving objects, and artifacts to isolate true structural data.
- Format Standardization: We deliver optimized data exports compatible with your native environments (.RCP, .RCS, .E57)
2. BIM Preparation
BIM models provide a digital workflow that transforms the design, construction, and long-term operations of an asset. We transform raw, unstructured LiDAR data into intelligent, data-rich Building Information Modeling (BIM) assets. Our professional engineering team converts complex 3D point clouds into accurate, parametric models that optimize pre-construction planning, retrofits, and facility management workflows.

Our Step-by-Step Service Workflow
1. Registered Point cloud incorporBegin sation
- We import the point cloud into the BIM/CAD project utilizing standardized positioning methods to eliminate manual placement drift.
- We perform precise manual translation and rotation to lock the spatial data directly onto your project’s primary structural grids if the scans are non-georeferenced.
2. Advanced BIM Environment Setup
- Grid & Level Mapping: We establish precise project levels, elevations, and structural grids directly from the scan data.
- Coordinate Synchronization: We align the digital workspace with your project's survey base points for absolute field accuracy
3. High-Precision Parametric Modeling
- Architectural & Structural Elements: We model precise structural boundaries, including custom walls, slabs, columns, and roofs.
- MEP/Industrial Piping: We trace complex mechanical systems, electrical conduits, and HVAC ductwork over point clusters.
- Tailored Level of Accuracy (LOA): We build components to your exact tolerance requirements, ranging from 5mm to 15mm deviations.
4. Quality Assurance & Asset Enrichment
- Deviation Analysis: We run automated deviation checks to compare the finished BIM model against the raw point cloud.
- Metadata Injection: We embed non-geometric data into elements, including material specs, manufacturer data, and asset codes.
- TOpenBIM Delivery: We supply files in native formats (.RVT, .PLN) and cross-platform industry standards (.IFC) for seamless digital twin handovers
5. Transform your BIM model into a digital twin database
