Construction Documentation

A measured baseline your design team can actually use.

Registered point cloud exports in the formats your modelling team works in — delivered from the same site visit as the navigable tour.

Why builders choose this service

BIM-ready in your team's format

We deliver E57, RCP, RCS, and IFC. Open in Revit, ArchiCAD, AutoCAD, or any tool that ingests registered point cloud data.

Accurate to within 1%

Registered point clouds measure to within 1% of reality across the building envelope. Adequate for as-built modelling, retrofit design, and renovation scoping.

One site visit, two deliverables

We capture the navigable tour and the point cloud from the same scan day. No second mobilization fee, no schedule conflict.

What you get

Deliverables

Registered point cloud in E57, RCP/RCS, or IFC (choose at booking)
Optional 2D measured floor plans (CAD-ready DWG)
Coordinate-system alignment to your project datum on request
Cleaned and decimated outputs to manageable file sizes

See full pricing on the packages page.

Point cloud delivery is the deliverable architects and engineers actually use — the navigable tour is a reference for everyone else. Both come out of the same scan day.

Workflow

We scan with terrestrial and mobile units depending on the geometry, register on site to confirm coverage, and deliver the cleaned cloud within 5 to 7 business days of the visit. Tight-schedule projects can request a 72-hour turn at a coordination fee.

Software compatibility

The most common outputs by tool:

Revit / ArchiCAD — RCP / RCS
AutoCAD / Civil 3D — RCP, plus 2D DWG floor plans on request
Rhino / SketchUp — E57 with importer plugin
Open / generic — E57 plus an IFC reference geometry

Frequently asked questions

What accuracy can we expect?

For residential interiors we typically deliver registration accurate to within 1% of reality across the building envelope, which is sufficient for as-built modelling and most renovation design. For exterior work or projects requiring tighter tolerances we plan a control-point survey before the scan.

How large are the typical deliverables?

A 4,000 sq ft home produces around 20 to 40 GB of raw scan data and 4 to 8 GB of registered point cloud after decimation. We deliver via a secure transfer link.

Can you align to our existing project coordinate system?

Yes — if you provide control points or a benchmark, we register the cloud to your datum. Otherwise we deliver in a local project origin.
