Scan to BIM Services | Accurate Point Cloud to BIM Modeling for AEC Projects
When existing buildings lack reliable drawings, design and construction teams face delays, rework, and costly site revisions. Our SCAN TO BIM SERVICES in the USA and worldwide convert laser-scanned data into accurate, information-rich BIM models that help architects, engineers, and contractors plan with confidence.
Technology/Tools We Use
To ensure accuracy and efficiency in our 3D scan to BIM services, we work with:
Understanding Scan to BIM Modeling Conversions
Scan to BIM services involve importing and modeling laser-scanned point cloud data into Autodesk Revit for developing 3D digital models. The point cloud data is provided in different formats, i.e., E57, RCP, LAS, XYZ, etc. The details modeled in the Revit model typically include Architectural, Structural and MEP design elements. The two main goals of the Point Cloud to Revit conversion are to assess existing site conditions with precision and facilities management.
As a Point Cloud to BIM modeling service provider, we specialize in transforming point cloud data into coordinated Revit-ready models for renovation, retrofit, restoration, and facility management projects. Whether you need detailed architectural modeling or discipline-specific MEP coordination, our team delivers structured BIM outputs aligned with your project goals.
Our Point Cloud to BIM Conversion Services are available globally, serving AEC companies in key regions such as the USA, Canada, the UAE, the UK, Europe (including Germany, Switzerland, and other countries), and the UAE.

Our Point Cloud to BIM Modeling Process
Our technical team has extensive experience working with US-based architects, contractors, and engineering consultants, ensuring compliance with regional standards and workflows.
Reviewing Point Cloud Data
Firstly, we import laser-scanned data (E57, RCP, LAS) into Autodesk ReCap Pro software to develop a unified scan for visualizing site conditions and exporting the ReCap file.
Point Cloud Modeling in Revit
Consequently, we import the data into Revit software, define the coordinate system, and begin modeling the design elements i.e., walls, doors, windows, beams, columns, MEP etc.
Quality Assurance & Checks
Furthermore, we check the proper alignment of design elements, deviation tolerance, level heights, potential openings, proper family types and LOD compliance.
Exporting Scan Data to Revit Services
Finally, based on the client’s requirements, we export the Revit model in the desired format. Commonly requested file types include RVT, IFC, and OBJ

Frequently Asked Questions - FAQs
What is BIM Scanning?
Capturing a building’s geometry using scanners to develop point clouds is known as BIM scanning. These point clouds serve as the foundation for developing precise 3D BIM models.
Do you provide Scan2BIM services for small residential projects?
Yes, we develop Architectural BIM models, floor plans and elevational drawings using laser scanned data for small residential projects.
What are the applications of the Scan to Revit modeling?
The most common applications include as-built models for facility management and renovations. 3d scan to revit modeling facilitates design coordination, construction validation, and clash detection, enhancing teamwork and cutting down on rework.
What is the difference between scan to BIM and CAD to BIM?
Scan to BIM involves using laser scanning technology to capture real-world data and turn it into a 3D digital model. Whereas, CAD to BIM involves development of 3D BIM models in architectural, structural and mep disciplines. CAD to BIM begins with pre-existing 2D drawings, scan to BIM begins with physical reality.
How Long Does Point Cloud Conversion Process Typically Take?
The time required for the conversion process depends on various factors, including the complexity of the point cloud data, the level of detail needed, and the specific requirements of the project. Simple models may be completed in a few days, while highly intricate ones could take several weeks.
Do you model point cloud survey in Revit?
Yes, a lot of people use Revit to model point cloud surveys. Following processing, the laser scan data can be imported into Revit in RCP or RCS formats. The point cloud can then be used to model structural and architectural elements that makes it useful for developing precise as-built BIM models.
Can I export 2D drawings from a Point Cloud Scan to BIM model?
Yes, it’s possible to create 2D CAD drawings such as DWG floor plans, sections, and elevations from a BIM model. Our team includes the building’s design elements into the model and then exports precise DWG files.
What is included in point cloud to BIM conversion services?
Point cloud to BIM conversion services include transforming laser scan data into a structured BIM model with architectural, structural, and MEP components based on agreed LOD specifications.
Do you provide commercial point cloud modeling services for large buildings?
Yes, we handle commercial point cloud modeling services for offices, malls, healthcare facilities, and industrial sites.
Can you support renovation and retrofit projects in the USA?
Yes, our team regularly works with US-based AEC firms for renovation, retrofit, and facility documentation projects.
How do we convert point cloud to bim model?
We convert the point cloud to bim model by following 4 simple steps.
- Importing point cloud data (RCP, e57, xyz etc. ) in AutoDesk Recap pro
- Registering point data in Recap pro and developing a unified Recap file
- Inserting the Recap File in Revit, setting coordinates and modeling design elements
- Checking the correct alignment of design elements against point cloud data in Revit
- Exporting BIM Model in the desired format i.e., RVT, IFC
Which Scan to BIM software tools are available?
There are many software tools available in the market. We use Autodesk tools i.e., Revit, AutoCAD and Recap Pro.
Can Scan to BIM be used for new construction projects?
While Scan to BIM is primarily used for existing structures, it can also be beneficial in new construction for verifying as-built conditions against design intent, ensuring quality control, and creating accurate as-built documentation.
Can I Get Customized 3D Models from Point Cloud Data?
Yes, we model point cloud data in Autodesk Revit software. The software offers features to customize architectural, structural, or MEP design elements for your project. This includes the level of detail (LOD), orientation, shape, and size of building elements. As per your requirement, we also provide different formats of 3D models, such as RVT, IFC, SAT, etc.
What is the cost of Point Cloud to BIM services?
The cost of Point Cloud to 3D Model services depends on several factors, including the total area, design complexity, number of floors, level of detail (LOD), and the quality of the point cloud data. We provide quotes tailored to your specific project needs.
What are the top point cloud modeling software for BIM projects?
AutoDesk Revit, AutoCAD, Leica Cyclone, Trimble RealWorks etc., are popular choices. Recap and Cyclone are recommended for scan processing and registration, whereas Revit is typically used for point cloud modelling. The choice depends on project needs and requires detail.
Can point cloud Scan to BIM be used for all types of buildings?
Yes, Scan to BIM can be used for any type of building. This includes heritage, commercial, industrial, and residential buildings. It is quite helpful in cases where building drawings are out of date or missing. The complexity of design impact the efforts. For example, a simple home requires less detailed modeling than an industrial facility with dense MEP systems.
