Point Cloud Conversion to 3D Modeling: The Roadway as it is

January 25th, 2019 BIM

In the age of digitization, reconstructing the as-built condition of archaic buildings for construction companies and surveyors isn’t a tough task. Point cloud modeling has redefined the tasks and the continuously improving features of 3D modeling platforms like Revit or simple CAD such as AutoCAD, the work for surveyor and engineers has become easier.

Building Construction Design: Diversity and Complexity

When point cloud scanned data is gathered, the difficulty level of reading that data and converting the point cloud scans into 3D models depends upon the building type, its orientation, and density of building components. Construction companies face this challenge more often in case of commercial complexes, shopping malls, and hospitality buildings.

No two buildings will be the same. The HVAC systems layout, MEP connections, structural skeleton of the building, firefighting systems and many other aspects need to be modeled precisely during…
