LiDAR Point Cloud data to 2D CAD Drawings Conversion

We specialize in providing CAD drawing services using 3D scan data. To transform intricate 3D scans into editable, high-quality CAD files, our team uses modern technologies. The team's practical knowledge in repairing and converting scanned or point cloud files into designs can facilitate renovating, remodeling, and refurbishing. According to the client's needs, the BIM models can be used with CAD layering to create precise 2D layouts of the architectural, structural, and MEP systems.

LiDAR Point Cloud Data are seamlessly converted into accurate CAD drawings using AutoCAD, helping architects, engineers, and designers reach their greatest potential. We strive for perfection, focusing on every little detail as we maintain and enhance your designs. This facilitates collaboration, modification, and innovation.

Our Services Include

Our Scan to CAD services use advanced CAD conversion techniques to produce accurate 2D and 3D CAD drafts from various formats, including paper drawings, 3D CAD models, and sketches, for accessibility and online collaboration. We provide:

Scan to Architectural CAD

Architectural drawings such as floor plans, site plans, ceiling plans, elevation and section drawings, and other architectural features are created from scanned or raw point data.

Scan to Structural CAD

Using scanned data, we produce comprehensive 2D structural layout drawings, column plans, sections, beams, slabs, trusses, and more, enabling fast visualization of every structural element for efficient design and construction.

Scan to MEP CAD

Using the client's scanned file, we produce 2D layout plans and electrical drawings that include parts like switches, cables, lighting, HVAC/plumbing drawings, and sewage layouts.

Scan to CAD Process

Combining 3D laser scanning and CAD enhances the digitalization of a project with precision and efficiency. Following are the steps for the data conversion:

  • 3D Laser Scanned Data Analysis: The information gathered from 3D laser scanning yields fine-grained point clouds with XYZ coordinates derived from actual objects. Based on the client's needs, expert analysts examine this data and convert it into CAD drawings or 3D mesh.
  • Data processing: Using specialized software like Recap, the procedure involves importing acquired point cloud data into processing software, cleaning it to eliminate noise, aligning and integrating data from several scans, and processing it.
  • CAD Integration: After processing, the data is imported into AutoCAD software to create as-built 2D drawings. Technicians create detailed and structured drawings, employing Scan-to-CAD for a direct and precise transition.
  • Final Checks and Quality Assurance: The team does a final quality check, with adjustments made in response to feedback or new requirements, to make sure the CAD deliverables accurately depict the real thing and adhere to the necessary specifications.

Benefits of Scan to CAD

Following are the benefits of adopting Scan to CAD workflow:

  • Improves Accuracy: Maintains original design while offering accurate digital representations of surveyed regions.
  • Time Efficiency: Quicker scanning speeds up project deadlines by cutting down on-field time.
  • Boosts Data Richness: Facilitates complex geometry capture and CAD vector transformation, guaranteeing thorough data analysis.
  • Smooth Transition: Enables a simple interface with common drafting tools to improve teamwork.
  • Business Process Automation: This boosts productivity and efficiency by digitizing designs.
