Scan-to-BIM is an exciting new technology that allows one to create a point cloud by scanning a building with lasers, and then import said cloud into a BIM software suite which will automatically recognize architectural elements such as doors, windows and columns.
Here’s 4 advantages to hiring a firm specializing in scan-to-BIM.
The BIM software modeling tools necessary to implement scan-to-BIM are alarmingly expensive.
A contract with an outside firm is much less in cost, and thus is the most budget-friendly option for your company.
No need to hire or train personnel
Scan to BIM is a new field and if you’re like most companies, it’s one that most of your existing personnel have had no experience with.
Through a comprehensive laser scan that captures all the details of the item in question, engineers and builders can create detailed maps and diagrams of real-world spaces with minimal measurement and hands-on work.
By entering a few key numbers and measurements (called parameters) into the BIM’s user interface, an engineer can get these detailed scans with basically the click of a button.
Instead of taking meticulous measurements by hand, scan to BIM allows you to capture a space in one fell swoop with minimal background information.
Scans eliminate common human measurement and math errors.
With a machine taking measurements and crunching the numbers instead of people, the likelihood of error is far less.
Of course, computers and calculators also significantly reduce this error, but scan to BIM technology takes it to the next level by eliminating the intermediate step.

Coordinates X, Y, and Z usually define point clouds to represent the exterior surface of an object.
Then, designers use scan to BIM to process the captured point cloud data into BIM models.https://indbim.com/scan-to-bim.html
