Point cloud to BIM and scan to BIM services
MASONORA’s point cloud to BIM services convert registered laser scan data into accurate as-built Revit models and drawings. We model architecture, structure and, where required, MEP elements at the level of development you specify. As-built models give renovation, fit-out and facilities teams a reliable starting point instead of outdated drawings.

Which point cloud formats do you accept?
We accept registered scans in RCP, RCS, E57, LAS, PTS and other common formats from FARO, Leica, Trimble and NavVis scanners. If the scans are not yet registered, tell us and we will confirm whether registration can be included.
What level of development do you model to?
We model at the LOD you specify, usually LOD 200 to 350. Lower LODs suit space planning and massing. Higher LODs suit detailed design, coordination and fabrication. We confirm the LOD and modeling tolerance in writing before starting, and report deviations against the scan.
Why is an as-built model better than old drawings?
Existing drawings are often incomplete or wrong after years of changes. A model built from a scan records the building as it is, which reduces site surprises, design changes and variation claims during renovation work.

Do you carry out the laser scanning?
We model from scans you provide. If you need scanning, we can recommend working with a local survey partner.
How accurate is the model?
Accuracy depends on the scan quality and the LOD. We agree the modeling tolerance before starting and report deviations against the point cloud.
Can you model MEP services from the scan?
Yes, where services are visible in the scan and included in the scope.
Can you work in our Revit template?
Yes. Send your template and standards and the model will follow them.
How is scan to BIM priced?
By floor area, LOD and the number of disciplines modeled. A specialist will confirm the fee and delivery date on your quote.
