When hiring a 3D scanning provider, one of the biggest mistakes is focusing only on the scanning itself. 3D Laser Scanning A provider can collect millions or even billions of measurement points, but that does not automatically mean you have something useful for your architect, engineer, contractor, survey team, or facility manager.
The real value comes from the deliverables.
Before a scanning project begins, you should know exactly what information will be delivered, in which formats, at what level of detail, and how that information will fit into your existing design or construction workflow.
Reality IMT-3D Laser Scanning, BIM, Building Measurements approaches projects around this idea. 3D laser scanning can produce highly detailed existing-condition information, but that information may need to be processed into point clouds, CAD drawings, Revit models, floor plans, elevations, BIM documentation, GIS data, imagery, or other project-specific outputs.
