Scan to BIM for Detailed As-Built Building Model Creation
MaRS Trans USA provides building information models directly from point cloud data, capturing the layout and details of the physical structure. Our BIM stakeholders follow structured methods for architectural, structural, and MEP elements to maintain accuracy. Each BIM model is produced using measured inputs, consistent element logic, and documentation for your project requirements. We follow industry focused modeling guidelines and disciplined review steps to control variation between the model and field conditions. This approach supports renovation studies, facility records, extensions, and retrofit planning. We provide clear geometry and organized information from verified field scans.
Our experienced BIM specialists work with a combination of point cloud processing tools, Revit-based modeling workflows, and coordination platforms to manage scan data effectively. Each element is checked against the captured cloud throughout the modeling process to maintain alignment with site measurements and required LOD ranges. We apply naming rules, element grouping conventions, and templates to keep data structured across disciplines. These methods help maintain consistent representation of shells, floor systems, frames, ductwork, piping, and other building components. With experience in terrestrial laser scans, LiDAR datasets, and mixed-source survey inputs, our staff delivers models suitable for planning, documentation, heritage study, and coordination tasks.
#1 Our Key Features for Scan to BIM Services
Scan to BIM workflows require clear data handling, consistent modeling rules, and verified geometry. Our team processes point cloud inputs and creates models that match existing site conditions with measured accuracy.
Levels Of Detail We Used
Conceptual
We present basic building forms and main volumes, showing the project’s overall shape and scale without including detailed features, textures, or material definitions.
Approximate Layout
We place generalized elements with estimated dimensions. The model reflects approximate positions and simplified geometry aligned with key scanned references.
Defined Components
We model architectural, structural, and MEP elements with accurate sizes and locations. Each component aligns with point cloud data for consistent representation.
Fabrication Detail
We develop components with fabrication-level detail and precise geometry. The model supports coordination, installation planning, and field verification.
Verified As-Built
We match all elements to measured onsite conditions. The completed model reflects exact geometry, positions, and specifications observed in the final built state.
Scan to BIM Workflow
Data Collection
We receive the point cloud files and review scan coverage, clarity, and coordinate settings so the dataset is properly prepared for accurate modeling.
Data Preparation
We import the scanned data into ReCap and prepare clean, organized point cloud references that support consistent modeling in Revit.
Model Development
We create architectural, structural, and MEP elements using controlled tolerances. Each component aligns with the point cloud to reflect existing conditions.
Model Review
We verify geometry, locations, and alignments against the scan, keeping the model consistent with the captured field data.
BIM Integration
We combine architectural, structural, and MEP models into a single environment, providing accurate coordination, clash detection, and clear project visualization.
Quality Verification
We perform dimensional checks, element validation, and LOD compliance reviews to maintain accuracy, consistency, and readiness for downstream project applications.
Final Delivery
We prepare the model for project use and deliver the required formats. The result reflects the recorded conditions with clear, organized elements.
Post Support
We provide model updates, revisions, CAD to BIM conversions, and support for facility management to maintain accuracy and support project continuity.
